You sure seem intelligent.

Looks good but would be nice to see it written in something designed for cross platform compatibility (web/facebook/mobile deployment would be pretty epic for any conquer project)

That being said I get that it's for personal use and conquer assets are convenient so that's more my old man grumblings rather than anything constructive.

Last time I checked, C++ was pretty cross-platform friendly

IF he uses OpenGL, though even if he doesn't, switching the DX part isn't a big hussle if that area is hidden under some nice interfaces.

Yeah, TQ uses DirectX on Windows; that didn't stop them from making an Android, iOS, and Mac version of CO.

As I mentioned I skipped through it a bit. C++ is obviously a step up from C# in terms of cross platform. I wasn't aware it was easy to integrate into websites though. I'm probably just misinformed though as I've never done any real web dev (game or otherwise).

I did see he mentioned not using directx in the video though so that solves most of my questions

If there are any plans with opengl and a web version, check this out:

I am using Directx except that I switched from 8 to 11.x, However the graphics engine itself is easy to replace whether I chose to make it cross-platform or windows only.

Up until this point everything graphics related exists in a dll called DX_CORE and that just makes it much easier to replace in the future so I am not really worried about it :P

I thought about using Opengl but to be honest I have -1 experience with it and that made Directx even more pleasant to work with.

Great stuff... I'll keep that in mind in case I change my mind about Directx

I'm inclined to strongly disagree with this post. It's much easier to achieve cross platform with minimal with C# as opposed to the hoops you have to jump through with C++.

As said, I have literally 0 experience with cross platform/web deployment.
