Programming in C++

johnmsims · 12/09/2006, 03:38

I have been a huge supporter of EPVPer for over a year now. I flammed noobs on the "massive" change over for COPartner when the server emulator had to be used and came up with the idea of emulating the packets from the 9net9 server. But since I have very limited knowledge of C++ (becuase my ****** college decided to teach us Java) I have been unable to help in the efforts against TQ... lol... I would like to learn if any of you want to help... I'm out of school now and have some free time on my hands since I work at night a lot... I'm 24 years old so I'm not a freaking noob kid... I really would love to learn about all the programming options with C++, not just in aspect to Conquer, but to other applications as well... I don't even care about learning about the proxys... I just want to learn what cotobo and COPartner does and learn how to edit and manipulate them... just msg me back here or over pm... thanks

I agree... learning from somewhere else would probably work out better... but maybe ya'll have some good sites to hit me back with... all the bullshit when you search on yahoo or google when you put in c++... just want to start learning... not become a master overnight... thx

****, you learn java in college?? here in portugal we learn it in highschool! but i didn't like it much either! we also learned C++ but i kindof paid little attention to the matter since i was to busy playing conquer, lol! but i think i could get you some basic functions, as soon as i find time to translate and up load some of the papers i still have from school!

btw, i'm kinda in the same situation as you (out of school and i work alot of the times at night) i'm thinking of starting to program again, it's all a question of time! which i have very little of it!!

I started to program in turbo pascal, it's basic coding and really simple, but i guess it also dependes on what you wanna do, probally the best thing for you would be the basic C language!! it's aslo easy and gives the beginning knowledge need to move up to more developed things like C++

I do not know if you know me but i have created a big macro/bot with AutoIt. Its a very handy tool but not really for hard coding. I'm just starting to learn of Visual C3 Express Edition, and its very very eay, not as easy as AutoIt (

if you interested) but the GUI creating with Visual C# is way much easier. Hope this helps

ganoderma · 12/10/2006, 22:12

i have downloaded the C# thing from the link Mokujin gave

i followed the included tutorial to start learning.
though it would be grat to have a place where we could discuss this better and ask for help (like said in the other thread)

johnmsims · 12/11/2006, 07:56

Thanks for all the input guys... this is what this forum should be... a way for ppl to start learning and contributing... great job ya'll and keep it up... I appreciate the help and I will hope to be contributing some of my own programs in the near future... now if anyone could help me with server-client packets... don't quite understand that... but would love to start learning it as well... thx again ya'll
