| You don't happen to be talking about using Lua for World of Warcraft, do you? People here probably can't help you much for that... :)
If you just want the interpreter binary to play with, you should go to the LuaBinaries project page: http://luabinaries.luaforge.net/ |

| From what I have seen searching for Flyff and Lua, which isn't all that much, you can script in Lua. However whether or not it is already installed isn't clear.
If you need a copy of Lua, try:
http://www.lua.org/
The online manual for learning Lua is at:
http://www.lua.org/pil/
I doubt if anyone here is a great expert in Flyff and Lua scripting - this site is really for MUD games, and in particular MUSHclient (MUD game client).
Try the Flyff forums, they may be more help.

| From this web page:
http://luabinaries.luaforge.net/download.html
Download this file:
http://luaforge.net/frs/download.php/3134/lua5_1_3_Win32_bin.zip
Inside that zip file are various .exe and .dll files. Extract them all into a directory (eg. C:\Lua)
Double-click on lua5.1.exe - and you will have Lua running. You should then see a console window showing:
Lua 5.1.3 Copyright (C) 1994-2008 Lua.org, PUC-Rio
>
Now you can try your scripts. |
