Post by guilherme »

gyes.
I am reviwing a book about C, i do not work in C for 2 our 3 years.
so I'm wriding this again.
Please, for programers on this community, how (simpling) do I an editor for 3d games, is C/C++ a good language to do it.
My idea is to do something like Trespasser and quake.
I do I do it?
Thanks.

P.S. I'm not asking for a code, obviously, but yes, for how do i do it? I do not know it.

Well, definitely, this subject is much better suited to the 'programming' section of the forum, hopefully some admin will move it over there later...

Yes, C++ is probably best suited for doing an editor, I suggest you start with the C++ basics and then go to read some OpenGL tutorial (most ones I've seen, if not all, have examples written in C++), that should give you an idea of how to do it. Also, look for documentation on the file formats used by various games. I'm telling you all this because I'm more or less in the same situation you are, and those are the steps I've been following...

I belive it was better posted there, but i didn't remember this.
For lots of time I am thinking about how to do a base code to a game, but, I can't find some solution.
this is realy dificult.
I wold like to find to a "descompiler", ok, something that show the code from some program, a program that translate binary code to c/c++ or other language, I belive with something like this, is realy better to know how to do a base code to a game.
And not more, I belive it is good to to learn how to put Dinos (in Treapsser) jumping and other things of cours.

now that I have it, and now that I'm reading it, now I know how to do a 3d game engine.
I "saw" I thot how to do it.
OpenGL library is very good for this.
