[Question/Discuss] Why is there no C++ Sources?

I bet they would learn 5x times faster if they acctually took a C# e-book/book or followed a tutorial on the internet. I know that I myself have learnt alot of C# from [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...], msdn and google in general. You aren't going to fully understand the code and what lays behind it by "studdying" someone elses code. This is a lazy persons way of thinking. Go borrow a C++ book from a library, or buy one, or just use internet tutorials. Start with the basics, get to know the language. You will learn alot faster by doing that and also you will build your own code from scratch instead of using 90% of someone elses work.. I can't understand how people use the base code of someone elses work and then says they created it itself? I am not pointing this at you, just in general what is happening around us. Edit: Hey limbo are you david from Pyramid?

I won't be claiming the source as my own or releasing it, it's Hybrids and it'll stay that way - I'll just be using it as a learning structure until I am ready to code my own base source. Yes my name is David :o I think you may know me if your from Pyramid - Do you know Eric, GoNz etc. ? I'm originally from Volcano, KingJus, Unicorn & Dark but have been playing along side Pyramid players too due to Eric playing KingJus with me :P I'm sure you know Kevin/Rapist? I'm friends with him and who are you from Pyramid? :o I was one of the people from KingJus who hopped on one of those accounts to pwn GW with Eric and others :p

Anyways ontopic, just as a suggestion, get other C++ sources (not related to conquer) and use them to learn. Like you are aiming at making a C++ private server perhaps? Well then you can search online for projects like a messenger with a client and a server in C++, that will get you to understand Socket listening and connecting. Learn how to invoke events upon connections and yeah before you know it you will know how to make a server from scratch.

You say you can program in 3 different languages, Java,C# and C++. My question is, how good can you program in each of those indivual languages? Also another question, for how long have you been learning how to program? I don't remember mentioning that it was a wrong approach, but I did state that it was alot easier going the other route.

Like you said searching for other sources for different games to understand how it connects via sockets listening and connecting which I will probably do but I don't want to skip any part of learning C++ I will start from the basics and work my way up. Can we just agree that how fast someone learns C++, C#, Java and any other Programming languages is based on what the person is like - Some don't like just watching text books and reading and learning that way whilst others take a more enjoyable approach - Hands on? Just my thoughts.

It seems theres no C++ servers because the C# route is easier for a lot more programmers. the question is, why is there only C# servers? (and a couple of java) wheres the C, delphi, python, perl, ruby or even VB?

I maybe wrong but each person is different that is just how i started out. Other than the feature to '#include' the header files I used the fact to use it to get a basic understanding of how c++ worked.
