Re: (trying to) make VST plugins - FL studio 10
They usually come in .dll form, and .dll files are compiled from code written in a programming language, using a library to work with digital audio. This library is Steinberg's VST SDK. You'll also need a decent knowledge of how digital audio works, and C++ programming.
Your best bet would be to look for tutorials and open source VSTs. Here's a waveshaping distortion whose source I more or less understand at a glance.
I'm doing my best to not tell you to Google it, but it's the best way to learn about anything. A quick search yields some very good links; check out the Stack Overflow one.

I would love to do this as well.

Re: (trying to) make VST plugins - FL studio 10
I only just learned how to make music - so making a plugin is still a world away from me.
