I in my intense boredom and quest for knowledge have decided that I want to learn how to code programs like Wow Glider and and such but I don't know what programming language to learn for the most of it do you think you guys can help?

Um, something like that is a massive project. It'll take a lot of time, and need a lot of skill. But, if you're serious, you can create a program in pretty much any language.

Any Microsoft language, most likely. Maybe a BASIC language. Delphi, etc. C++.

You could do it in Java, too. It'd just be trickier.

Well If I get the basics outline I could always get help later thanks guys

I would suggest Delphi, its easiest in my opinion.

VB much easer…

Use a C based language considering it's faster and more powerful.
C,C++,C#.

Yea But I dont think GoldRush has that much experience.


I suggest Delphi, or SCAR :p

But SCAR isn't a language. It's an interpreter.

I know plenty of people who would argue about that with you.

Go C++, may seem harder but more worth it in the long run..

They may argue but who cares? Wow Glider is made in .net I believe prolly C# or C++.net. Doesn't matter if they argue with me or not, I just told you a highly known fact lol. It is faster, but it's harder.

Back when we was doing programmer of the week, Bullzeye said my program would beat his simply cuz I was programming in C# and he was in Delphi. Neither one of us suck in programming so it fell down to the language choice.

I agree with C and C++ but I know nothing of C# except that it was create by Microsoft. So fuck C#. :)

Yeah I know plenty too, doesn't make them right. :P

I would use Python if you can find a good form library.
You can easily emulate keypresses using the win32 library, and do some other neat tricks. And its fast, and with Psyco.full() its even faster (As fast as C apparently - Psyco JIT compiles it).

C++ := C + 1;
C# := C++ + `;

C Sharp = C#, like the music note sharp is higher so c# is better then c++ and C, i argue, use C# its very nice.
