Where could one look to learn how to write a script hook for a game themselves?

[DawnsAnguish888]

So im fairly new to coding in general, basically just dabbled in it if i needed something done via googling, but not really profficient in any sense like i understand some terms and lines depending on the program, just not how to put them together to make anything useful atm xD

So i have a couple of questions,
1.Where would i look if i was after guides on how to specifically make scripthooks for games? becuase googling basically just comes up with GTA stuff and "guide"just sends me to installing a script hook someone else made :/ and coding is a vast plethora of languages and i am one confused cookie.

2. for anyone whos made one, if im fresh to coding would it even be feasable or likley that ide be able to make or even update an existing script hook? without learning a ton of extra things about coding (like i just want to specialise in this one thing atm for what i want to get done)

Any help would be super appreciated! :D

I am not sure if there are any guides for making script hooks, it is an extremely advanced form of modding.

Most script hooks work by replacing parts of the original game code with its own hook routines, just locating the parts of the game code that you need to patch would usually require extensive knowledge of assembly language and reverse engineering.

The Skyrim AE script hook (SKSE64) source code can be found on GitHub: https://github.com/ianpatt/skse64

I have never made a script hook, but I believe that would strongly depend on the exact game and script hook you are wanting to modify.
