What is the easier/better script language and program for NATIVEUI mods/scripts?
-
Does it REALLY matter which Visual Studio I use? I got 17. Some say to use 12 or 15 but I don't have those...
-
I'm just going to bump my question before it goes unanswered and buried by those off-topic threads that are popping up that have nothing to do with GTA V modding...
-
@GTA-Modding-Noob If you plan to write script mods in C# (you didn't tell) you need .net Framework 4.5.2 and afaik VS versions below 15 don't provide this. BTW the title of this thread could be more descriptive.

@Cyron43 Oh yeah sorry man. Ill close this up when we're done here to clear some space for other posts.
You seem to always pop up when I ask script related things. May I ask for some advice? Since I'm not that experienced in this area, especially for GTA things; in your opinion, personal experience or for general advice, what is the most simple method I should use for scripting and the ideal program?
I heard C# was easier...

@GTA-Modding-Noob If you choose C#, you will have to update your mods after game updates to keep them working. But with C# you don't have to reinvent the wheel again aka you can use methods/functions made by others.

@GTA-Modding-Noob I made a comment about that here. -> https://forums.gta5-mods.com/topic/19329/is-there-any-advantage-of-using-c-over-c-or-vb-to-make-mods/4

@R3QQ @Cyron43 Damn guys now I cannot choose... Both seem to have their benefits. Anyway ill save the decision for later.
So just to be clear, it wont matter whether or not I use an ancient 2012 VS 2015 VS or even the 2017 version? I've had issues in the past with Fallout and Halo modding due to having a too old or too new programs. I just want to be sure I can use any of these without any hassle, especially tutorial wise if I come across one that uses a different version.

@GTA-Modding-Noob VS 2015 Community and in the native database exists some explanations and comments related to native research with links to examples for methods. C# and Visual basic are common for GTA V modding, C++ too and LUA is necessary for FiveM servers.

Please read my first response again. Apparently you missed something essential. I made it in bold letters now.

@Cyron43 Jesus I'm either blind as hell or a real dumbass. I'll get right to it then. Thanks for the help.
