id Tech 4 Mod Coding / Novice programmer needs help.
September 12, 2014, 02:03:18 AM
Hello to all on this forum!

My name is CthePredatorG, and I need help with learning how to program. Not just the Id tech 4 engine (although that is the initial intent), but C++ and other languages in general!

I've had a huge project in mind for a few days now to heavily modify the Id Tech 4 engine to a point of fantastic modern capabilities, much like how Splash Damage modified it for BRINK, but even better! But there's a problem: I lack any kind of programming skill. I was in engineering classes in high school and didn't take any programming courses. Anyway, I need some pointers on the source code and C++, as well as recommendations for books and or websites where I can study up on it. I am NOT asking for a teacher (although that would be nice), I am just asking for pointers and advice to get me started on the right path.

Thank you in advance.
