Did you start with GScript?

[cbk1994]

Gscript did not start my programming experience; I knew BASIC and then Java before it; however Graal did help create my love for programming.

GScript was the beginning for me, and I now have interests in C++ and C# and a future in programming.

By the way, nice delete reason @ Skyld.

If you want to jump right into graphical stuff in C++ then check out SDL. And there is also SDL.NET for C#.

Yeah, if you saw what "s"he posted you'd know why ... it was pretty ridiculous.

I think it would be nice if there was a feature where you could collapse posts like how you would in a Tree View; it would be the step short of deletion. And the mods could make certain posts collapsed by default and marked as offensive or off-topic or so, that way you could still read if you're interested.

I agree, mods and admins can already do that with a deleted post, regular members can't though.

I know what he said.

It wasn't that bad but it was very trolly.

Why are you never online Chris?

My first programming language was Game Maker. Helped me heaps in learning GS2.

[DustyPorViva]

Game maker was horrible. Of course, last time I tried it was before it had any sort of language. Everything had to be done via object interactions and a crappy GUI system.

Started with GScript. After that HTML, PHP, JavaScript. Now I am working on a game in C++. GScript made it much easier for me to learn these other languages quickly and its a great place to start.

Attached is a application I began programming with C++ a couple weeks ago.

At the moment the program has the following features:

• [Custom]Has its own file format for resources (.ocr: levels, meshes, worlds)
• [DirectX]Draws graphics (text, mesh files, images)
• [WinSock]Connects to a server (only connects)
• [DirectX]Reads input from devices (mouse, keyboard)

It was pretty fun to be able to make my own little games when I was seven or eight, but I agree it sucks for anything above the element of fun with a friend.

[DustyPorViva]

It was great for things like racing games/platformers... otherwise it was terrible. Even when I was 8 or so I realized this. I think it was the complete lack of any tile support, which made it hard to build anything without using tons of objects.
