Atm you only know 2+2, and when people are telling you 12x12 is hard, you genuinely believe so, until you begin to unerstand.
Once you know the basics and the foundation, you can do anything :)
DirectX, are you focused on Windows? :P I always want it to be cross-platform, thats why I use SDL. And yes, once you know the basics its very easy to add menu's, icons, statusbar and all that stuff ;). Looking forward to ure next tut :D
Is tut #2 out and can c++ make video games
KyleEnos nice tut :), could you explain more about how to build applications with MFC related? and build Custom Controls?, i know all with data managements but with interface im an ignorant XD;
I'm writing #2 as we speak.
And yes, games, expecially MMOs are known to have been built with C++. Such games as: WoW, GW EVE and Anarchy.
And as I said, I can't jump from simple text output to advance GUI apps :P I will come to it though, don't worry =]
And Daeivius, yeah I do mostly use DirectX, but am known to sometimes use OpenGL :)
eh well c++ is better in general well i like it better, and yeah lol i didnt explain it because was showin an example of what you should teach em, i never quiet got into c++ and stayed in it but eh i might if your gona teach it in simple tuts. i know my fair share as far as imputs and outputs go but not enough to mess with c++ anymore ill keep watchin this and see how far you take it.
Hehe nice tut, it's fun playing with this :D
Ive been wanting to learn C++ i just never knew were to find a good guide from xD
Now i can actually do something in c++
LOL
Nice Tut's (1st And 2nd)
More Would Be Nice!
Laterz,
What Can I Say
Nice tut this should help loads of people and it already has. =]
Well, it's cool to see people interested by C++ but...
What Kyle is teaching is the REAL BASIC OF THE BASIC...
It's good for self knowledge but some people will face later the real diffculty with C++ such as class,polymorphism, heriting etc... and of course the "basic" statement of any programming language ( if..else..switch etc).
even worse is that C++ is munch complicated in the synthax than any other language ( except ASM :D).
what I want to tell is simple - Try to learn another programming language before C++.
My advice :
C - All the basic, tables pointers...It's a real + to know C before learning C++
C# - Everything new of C++ from C is here. Classes , polymorphism etc + You can make GUI really easy and fast !
PHP - The synthax is...well like 90% of C/C++. It's , imo a good "first programming language"
cheers
About Code Blocks..they released the first stable version in the last days ( v 8.02 if my memory don't fail ) and It's the IDE to have imo for C/C++ programming.
It's even open source !
Features
Ah the topic revived :), good actually :)
Ah, they made a stable release?! I was still using the nightly build of a month ago, I'll try out the stable version though it'll likely be almost the same.Quote:

Thanks,
I Was Starting To Learn In The Vb Coding, Now Im Going To Trying C++, Maybe Even C#.
Which Do You Recommend The Most For Just Starting?

C#, don't bother with VB.
I don't think that one works does it? I just downloaded it and it won't install for me, you might have better luck though.Code:(Windows Compatible)
