Re: salary requirements

$30k per year shouldn`t be too much in Montana for a soon-to-be-fresh grad.

Re: I am wanting to be a gamecoder any Advice.

Re: I am wanting to be a gamecoder any Advice.

Well, if you want to learn engine programming, there`s no better way than to get your hands dirty working on your first game and working on the engine at the same time. Of course, you can`t get all...

Re: I am wanting to be a gamecoder any Advice.

If you want to create games, you don`t have to recreate whole engine from scratch. Just...

Re: C ++ Class members

You`ll have to rephrase your first and fourth point better, since it doesn`t make sense in its current form.
A class member can be a variable of any type - it doesn`t matter if it is of integer or...

Re: I am wanting to be a gamecoder any Advice.

First of all, games programming is an obsession or disease, if you ask me.

During production of each game there are "crunch time" periods where the team must finish a specific set of features by a...

Re: class design - use of friends / getter(setter) / public : Lesser Evil

I didn`t know the trick with unnamed namespace. It`s a great technique since I`ve already experienced many times that I wanted to name some class with the same logical name, but wanted it to be just...
