The TGE scripting language uses a fairly straightfoward syntax, but there are some low-level concerns (what's the complete list of reserved words and other tokens?) and high-level ones (how do objects and namespaces work?) that need to be addressed in some detail.

This tutorial will guide you through modifying torque to display lens flares through flags set in the mission files. This tutorial will show you how to get a Sun Flare working with screen whiteout if camera is pointing towards the sun. You could also use the Lens Flare to make things like street lights and other uses of lens flares like bright glares off of metal from the sun. This tutorial contains all C++ changes and the only script changes would be modifying your current mission files to display flares.

This topic demonstrates how to cause Torque to load an entire directory of files, compile them, and execute them. It does not currently work on files that don't have matching source (once I'm sure what needs to be there, I'll fix it up).

Here is a short guide I just cooked up on getting around with the Torque engine when you are a beginner, I posted it on the forums a few days ago and since then I have gotten some very nice comments on it (I'm specially proud on the one by Jeff Tunnell =) ) So I thought it would be a good idea to put it up in this section, so it is easily available for everyone. This guide simply mentions the steps you should follow to get to know torque, it also contains references to the tutorials you should read and the tools you should have to get started. I hope you find it useful/interesting and helps you get around Torque faster, enjoy!
