Learning game programming

[robbythesub]

Hi Guys

Having spent many years now playing the sub sims, and trying to understand how they work, I have found this forum incredibly helpful, and also have had much help from those here who know.

With this in mind, I wonder how one gets to know about game programming such as here in SH3 / SH4, and whether someone could give me an idea how to get into it- is there a particular lline of study, or is it general programming that is needed?

Thanks!:salute:

robby, are you asking about game programming or game modding? :hmmm: They're (often) quite different. You don't necessarily need to know anything about programming to do some modding (particularly in SH3/4).

Hi OLC

Thanks, and I suppose modding is what I am really interested in- I have a good understanding of computers generally and file systems, but have never done anything like this before, and I very much admire you guys who do, so would like to know more really!

Thanks :up:
