My Brother got a copy of TGEA, willing to let me use

[heedicalking]

My brother has a copy of TGEA and he is willing to let me use it. I want to attempt making something but I need somewhere to start. Any suggestions?

Firstly, it's called Advanced, for a reason- It's advanced, if you don't have a great deal or any knowledge in C++, the engine will be of very little use to you, as it's the hard-coded c++ elements which can be most powerful.

Go to the garage games website, let your brother log in and browse the private resources/forum/wiki, theres some good stuff there.

I have been doing that. Most of the stuff I find though is for TGE.

I know. You need C++ to make engine changes blah blah blah compilers blah blah blah great deal of knowledge blah. I am willing to learn you know.

Torque is based off of C so it wouldn't be that hard to learn if you are advanced in TorqueScript.

So what do you already know so we can find what you don't know.You seem to know torque script, although I have no idea how advanced you are with it.

Yes it would. Proper programming has tons of scary stuff.

Not that it doesn't help to already be experienced.

I can dish out simple edits to things with ease. I am just not used to make weapons for the current engine setup. I want to know how to make things like the server.cs that execute your scripts that are in a folder. I hate having to keep on going back to main to execute.

Sounds like a bit of a pickle.

C++ is basically Java with Miscrosft's claims slapped on it.

C++ and java are 2 different distinct programming languages. Please learn what you're talking about.

C++ is basically Java with Miscrosft's claims slapped on it.

C++ is a very distinct and extremely complex language (from someone who has worked with it now for two years as a Computer Science major.) It has very little in common with Java other than sharing the common C-Syntax style.

You're probably thinking of C# which is similar to Java and was developed by Microsoft. It is, however, not identical to Java, and has some very distinct traits. It also runs on the .NET Framework instead of the JVM.

There is also J#, which is now defunct, and was more or less a technology demo to showcase the early .NET framework to Java developers as means to convince them to dump the JVM and embrace .NET. J# is nearly identical to Java.

C++ is a upgraded version of C that improves and adds more functions

And none of them were made by microsoft or sun
