C/C++ Coding Discussion / Crash Course

Post by morbydvisns »

On the near(ish?) horizon, there will be a ramped up need for skills in these areas to keep up with the direction this game is moving. If anyone has any useful sites to toss a link or 2 up in here for in acquiring such knowledges, drop them in here. I'll also toss some walkthrough-ish posts on the libraries and such, providing Mit doesn't have a problem with us going ahead and getting a head start on deciphering this stuff before its 'officially public' or whatever and posting up information on how to get stuff done.

So, if anyone has been wanting to learn how to program or whatever, now you have some motivation to go ahead and start on that. Or if you have some hidden talents in this stuff time to step up ;).

If we want to make this game look and work at least as a last-gen game. That would already take a lot of work. I think it's important that any coders that are interested in improving the game would mainly have to focus on graphics programming and networking. The non-coders that would like to try should of course checkout those topics on the internet or get some books about graphics programming and networking.

Kind regards,

AniCator posts, goes away for a bit and (I suspect) forgets all about us; and then his forum account is disabled by our oh-so-clever automatic systems, after a pretedemined time that I'm not privy to; and at that point I notice the disablement, remember it's someone who posts stuff every few months/years, re-enable the account, and I think the board sends an email which reminds The Anicator that we exist, and so we go around again.

Also I do it because AniCator's website indicates involvement in 3d art and other content, which would be useful if any of it came our way :]

I've been needing an artist, but people either don't know how to model/texture, or don't want to make low polied stuff.

Also, this is not my original forum account. My original was deleted a long time ago. When I first started playing, I went at least a few months of playing before even bothering signing up for an account.
