Just looking for some advice

[¤ Missmodd ¤]

Hello all, I am new to all of this. I have been interested in leaning how to make certain things for game cheats for some time but, haven't had the time till now. I have done a bunch of reading as to what people use and prefer for making things like botting programs for games. Certain hacks as to aim bots, I'm pretty sure you all here know what I mean lol.
Any ways, I have read that most people like to use C++ or VB6. I have read that VB6 is a little easier to start off with than C++. (Please remember, I have no experience to this I'm starting from scratch)
Now my BF said something about Java. I did some reading and I know a friend that made a few little cheats using Java. Ex. Auto Healing, auto fighting, selecting new targets ext.ext. I know from what I have read that Java LACKS in a lot of things compared to VB and C++. But as for a beginner would it be better to learn the easy stuff and move forward?. I went out and picked up a few books on each and have been reading them but, I think I'm just going to cross all the information in my head lol and I'm getting overwhelmed lol. I do have VB6 and a VB6 Core Language book, along with a step by step VB6 book. I have a Learn Java 6 in 21 Days book <---ya ya hahahahaha I know but, gotta start some place tho lol .
Any way again like I said I am new to all of this and now I have the time to pick up a few things that I have always wanted to try and do.
Any pointers, advice, websites with TuT's any information as to how, and help would be great. I am a noobie with this so sure i could try and make something easy and small but at this point I don't even know how to attach it to a game lmfao I know OMG this person is a noobie!
Thank you all for any help and or advice you can give me.

Depends what game you are trying to make hacks for?

[¤ Missmodd ¤]

Stuff like Combat Arms, A.V.A, Dekaron stuff like that for now. Things I have been playing for a long long time.

1. Learn C++ - all hacks (not cheats) are made using C++
2. Learn C# - More useful then VB
3. do what I did > After learning more about C++. I got a old hack source just to see what they did and to just learn more
later I tried to recreate it without C+P (kind of worked out).
4. Look into not just hacks, get into it. Start making random programs. Release only what your proud of.
5. I wouldn't start off with java. Stick with VB.net/C++/C#. I started with C++ and had a much easier time learning other program languages.

Thank you for the info. So is there anything else special I would need for doing or well in my case trying C++ lol. I thought I read some place that you need other things to use that. I think my problem is that people keep telling me to use different ones so I read a little on each one. (And when I say a little I mean like a days worth lol) so all the info is starting to cross and get a little over whelming lol. But i will look into this because you a re one of the many that have said learn C++.

To not get over whelmed just start with baby steps we all had to do it.. Start with Console apps. Easier and more fun then just hacking hacks (well for me it is ). You should start to get used to the way the code needs to be, and understand why.

Also Sort out all of this info.. I would type/write out all of the new stuff I've just learned, so I wouldn't have to re-look at the website again. Then just erase it when I got the hang of it. I would say if you put about 3 hours a day into c++ you should know how to make basic hacks in about 2-3 months (depends on how efficient you are)

Okay.... well thank you for all the input. I love google it has always been a great help, after sorting through a bunch of twists and turns lol. But now I am seeing a lot of things saying stuff wont work with a 64Bit system. Someone else mentioned using C++ with Eclipse for ease, but then said I would need a compiler. Then said oh you have a 64Bit system so I don't know what to tell you lol. And so far google is running me around in circles lmao. I know I have been asking a lot of questions and for that I am sorry. I am just trying to get a starting point here lol.
So my system is Win7 Home Premium 64Bit. What would you suggest for me to use to get up and running trying to mess around with a few things, making my first program or what ever. At this point I keep seeing things about making the HELLO WORLD lmao so hey it's a start right lol.
So what I was thinking was C++ with Eclipse (if it is true and it does make it easier that is )
And a compiler. I just have to find things that are Win7 64Bit compatible

WOW I'm going to have to start paying you guys for help here lmao.

[willrulz188]

Whats wrong with the old Visual C++ 2010 Express?? It's free

[¤ Missmodd ¤]

TY see I never even came across that yet lol. People and info on Google had me running in circles lol. So I see that it is for use with Win7 64Bit and I installed and started the learning TuT's lol. I made the hello world thing ZzZz but I gotta start someplace lol. I have a lot to learn but, overall not at all as difficult as I was thinking. Of course I am just sitting on the tip of the iceberg . I did how ever notice that in the new projects list and everything there is nothing there for a 64Bit? I am looking further into it. I know I can now make something to RUN on a 32Bit I just don't know if it will run on a 64Bit. I did see something last night about addins or something like that, that will allow creating a 64Bit program. Well I will say once again THANK YOU for all the help. after a few weeks or maybe a few months I hope to be able to contribute something here
