Title: Lua for Dummies: Creating Your First CS:GO Game Hook

Hey guys, I wanted to kick off a thread for beginners who are interested in creating their first CS:GO game hook using Lua. I know a lot of us have tried to mess around with the code, but got stuck in the process. If you're still trying to figure out where to start, let's join forces and get this game hook up and running!

"Hey guys, just wanted to say thanks for sharing this tutorial. I've been trying to wrap my head around Lua for a while now, so this is a huge help. Has anyone tried using this method in other games like Dota 2 or Overwatch?"

"Dude, I've been trying to get into game hook creation for a while now and I gotta say, Lua's a beast once you get the hang of it. Has anyone tried using the cs:go lua API documentation on GitHub, it seems a bit outdated but it got me started. Anybody have a working 'hello world' hook they can share?"

"Hey guys, I tried following this Lua guide from Steam's API documentation, and it's way more straightforward than I expected. One thing to keep in mind is to use a text editor like Notepad++ to write and edit your Lua files, as Visual Studio Code might give you a headache with the syntax highlighting. Anyone else have any tips or tricks for CS:GO game hooks?"

Just chimed in to share that I've had luck with Love2D for game development in the past. If you're new to Lua, I'd recommend checking out some tutorials on that first before diving into CS:GO development. Good luck with your project!

"Yo, I'm no pro at Lua, but just wanted to say thanks for this crash course. Been trying to mess around with CS:GO's scripting for weeks and finally understood some basic concepts. Anyone got experience with using Hooks in custom game modes?"

"Been there, done that. I recently tried getting into Lua modding for CS:GO and found some really helpful resources on GitHub. Check out this one thread for a crash course, it got me up and running in no time"

"Hey guys, just throwing in my 2 cents - I followed this tutorial to the letter and managed to get a basic game hook up and running. Anyone else having issues with getting the hook to recognize keyboard inputs? Might want to check your Lua version and make sure it matches the one in the tutorial."

"Hey guys, I've dabbled in Lua for game development and it's not too bad once you get the hang of it. Just download a library like Love2D to get started with the basics. Anyone got a good resource for CS:GO game hooks specifically?"

"Lol @ Lua for dummies, but props to the OP for taking the initiative! I've been trying to get into game dev myself, so I'll def be checking out this thread for some tips. Anyone have experience with game hooks in CS:GO?"
