Forum organization

[why06]

As you know I am trying to organize the forum to better handle new members with a lack of experience in C/C++ as well as experienced members as well. It is my hope that we can create a sort of "share the knowledge community where novices can accelerate their growth by piggy-backing on the more experienced, at the same time I do not want to limit the experienced coders by keeping the organization too basic. By taking opinions from all users I can make the best choice so I need to know what you guys want and how you think this place should be organized.

This is what I'm thinking right now:

1. An introductory guide to new users

-Explanation of C/C++/C#

-List of Compilers and Tools

-List of guides/ Books/ tutorials on C++

2. An intermediate Guide

-What to learn next

Basics of:

-Windows API

-D3D

-OpenGL

Introduction to Reversing

3. More advanced tutorials

-inline ASM

-More advanced functions (such as detour)
... Well it's hard for me to think beyond this point.

NOTE: One thing I am trying to consider is Sticky space. As you know there are some pretty important tutorials up there already, so here is what I was thinking. I was thinking about that if space ever became a problem we could combine links to several important threads in one thread, but I won't worry about that till later...
I am trying to compile all the information I can as fast as possible. Hopefully by the end of this week I will have a clear idea of what needs to stay and what needs to go. Over Fall Break I should have a rough draft figured out.

I know a lot of sites I have visited organize entire sections based on skill level, so I think this is going to be an interesting experiment to have all these different skill levels mingling together. Hopefully the outcome will be positive... only time will tell.

One thing I know you should include is a sticky reading:
LEARN C++ ITS FUCKING BETTER FOR HACKING GAMES.
That way we can reduce the
help me make hax plz wat do i code with
spam, along with the

shud i lern C or C# or C++ answr plzzzzzzz
spam

[crushed]

I agree with what you have up there, as well as with the above post. :P
Considering...I was one of those noobies that had to make the thread. lolfail. But yeah, looks good.
I'm so fail, yet to start chapter 2. @_@;;

lolland learn C++ FTW

well if u need any help why06 ask me i was a noob once and i think what novices would like to know in their situation and for pros i have to get information from other sites because we dont have alot of pros here.

Epic idea. Pm me if you want to pursue this idea.

Well if you have any ideas please share them here. Think of this as a town meeting... xD

Based on what lol said and past experience I think I'm going to add a FAQ Sticky, and hopefully that will cut down on the number of "C++ vs. whatever" threads.

agreed.
i think this will work well.
im glad i nominated you...

[lalakijilp]

make a list of other tutorials, such like HD just posted (assault cube hacking)
not directly needed for learning C++ but fun to do

Will do lalakiljip,

Ummmm... In recent new I added a FAQ I'm pretty sure most people noticed it, but I guess I can check that off my list.


Thanks whitten & obama, I'll ask you if I need anything.

[Matrix_NEO006]

This is what i will provide them until experienced with any tutorial needed.


Theres the intro to C++
then comes to low level hacking which is just finding address through CE and edit them.
then comes to basic level which is understanding the code and be able to program something. Not hack but actually a simple program, in basic level they have to know full C++, at least know/understand what the code is about at the end of basic level they will know how to put the codes together and use memory address to make the trainer.
in experienced section they will know how to program a working hack with C++ or make a simple trainer with C++ how to code DLL ... and so on
Professional ... idk

News: I've edited the How to learn C++ Sticky...

The only things left to do now are to make something for the Intermediate and Advanced sections. No small tasks since those are the more difficult. Hopefully this will work out... then I can take a break and actually get back to my own studying lol xD.
