Posted: Sat Nov 29, 2008 1:40 pm Post subject: C++ & DarkGDK |
|
|
Hello everybody. I've been learning C++ for a while now and decided to start learn how to make simple 3D games with C++. I know that the best games made with C++ are made using DirectX and OpenGL but i prefer making simple games that i can do alone, not with a team. I found that DarkGDK is very easy to learn too.
So what do you suggest? Should i learn DarkGDK or something else and remember that im not interested in making complicated games, just simple jump games. Thanks for any help.
P.S
Please do not comment anything like " N00b DARKGDK SUCKSSS" and so on i know that it isn't the best but still it's good for simple games.

| DarkGDK is alright... It depends on what kind of game are you making like... 2D or 3D, because DarkGDK isn't great with 2D games.

| Ogre 3D is a free 3D engine for C++. I've never tried it but I heard it's pretty good. I did have a look at some example code though, and it seemed pretty easy to use.

Yep, hes right for once.
And i wouldn't suggest him using ogre yet if he just wants to make simple games.

| If your new, go with the Irrlicht engine. I learnt with this engine, and it's much simpler compared to everything else I've seen.

Mod an existing engine, like Unreal, or Source.
Hell, even all the Quake engines are open source if you really want to blow your mind.
