[QUOTE="benparko, post: 1035277, member: 145406"] Ahhh ok. So it's probably best just to start from scratch and learn the basics of C++ first. I'm Reading C++ for Dummies which is good for beginners. Then I'll move into GUI. I've talked to some old work mares who are programmers (games) and they all write in C++. But I'd be very interested into developing some iPhone apps. Ofcourse this is in objective-c but my work mates have said "I don't have any experience with Objective-C but from what I understand it's only a proprietary set of poorly thought out additions to C." so it's probably best for me to learn C++ first. I have found a SDK called DragonFireSDK Whig let's you use C++ but it translates to objective-c so it can run in iPhone os. It also comes with a tester to you can run the app from your pc. Yeah I know about game engines. I used to work for a games development company - Rocksteady Studios in London. They recently released Batman Atkham Asylum and it was using Unreal3 from epic games. Thanks for your advice! So the beat bet is to just start from scratch and learn all the basics then start GUI when I come to it. Thanks again man, -Ben [/QUOTE]
