Guest gone1 Posted July 14, 2011 ID:453908 Share Posted July 14, 2011 I don't see why everyone wants to develop games. The only fun part of game development is developing an engine.Anyway, the best language for this kind of stuff is C++.Ok! Being a inexperienced as I am... Do I need to change compilers?Yes. Preferably to G++. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkSnakeKobra Posted July 15, 2011 ID:454352 Share Posted July 15, 2011 So C++ cant be multi-platform?Yes it is. Microsoft tools are just a poor choice if a developer wants it to be multi-platform. Ether install Cygwin or MinGW as both contain ports of the GNU Compiler Collection(cross platform compilers like G++). Personally I would prefer Cygwin.

ThexDarksider Posted July 15, 2011 ID:454387 Share Posted July 15, 2011 You might also want to dual boot Linux or run it in VirtualBox if you're going multi-platform. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
