[Question] Java and C++[Close]

Posts 1–12 of 12 · Page 1 of 1

Hi,

I am planning to change to Java, but before doing that i want to ask a question.

Thank you.

- Can you make a game with Java?

- Can you make a hack with Java?

- Is this like C++, but more better and less complicated?

Don't switch to java. Java just sucks.
1. Yes, but inconvienent.
2. I assume Memory Hacks at the MOST
3. Less Complicated. WAY Less powerful.
Not Better, but easier

I assume you're switching because you find C++ too complicated.
-Probably because you're Learning the Inside Outs of programming, and all the logic behind it, such as If statements, Functions, classes, loops, etc. Chose an easier language to learn, because learning easier languages will also make learning the logic easier.

Easier languages are stuff like LUA (scripting), PERL (scripting) BASIC, BlitzPlus, etc

C++ isnt necesairily(sp lawls) the easiest language.
And learning The meat, or logic of programming, While learning a HIGH level language isnt easy.

Not to mention, if you want to do games with C++ you need to learn an API with it.

But if you want to learn Java, go for it. But i assure you if you try learning C++ after, it will be a WHOLE LOT easier, AND if you know Java AND C++, and want a programming job, theyll like you.

If you want to make games, Chose BlitzPlus. All the things needed for games (2d) are in it. It's A Hybrid of BASIC/C.

You can also chose Blitz3D for 3d games (Harder)

I like your advide though, but i have another question with the Blitz3D.

- Do you need to learn C++ or Java to make game with Blitz3D or you got to learn the Blitz3D language?

Thank you TailsTehFox./yea

Ohh, so i got to learn the BlitzBASIC?

Its a Game specific language.
No need for an api like sdl or allegro like youd need for c++
all the input,audio,graphics,etc functions are in it

Ohh thanks! If it was another language, i would just stick with Java and C++.

A. Watch the flaming and baiting
B. Don't Bump topics older then 7 days

C. Finally,

Yes you can make games with Java, in fact cross platform versatile games.

With similar syntax to C , it should be a somewhat easy transition.

Onto it's power, it is not backwards compatible, Java runs in a virtual environment, so memory hacks..possible., but with winapi . \

it's generally a good idea to learn java because of it's increasing popularity. but reliant on what you need it for.

In no way is java as powerful as other languages (like c++) but where it lacks on power, it gains in versatility and growth

Seems like you just made an account to tell me that, good job.
