I've played around with UE4 and it's basically idiot-proof if you even just understand logical flowcharts and stuff. Honestly in my opinion you can get by in UE4 for basic stuff with math knowledge alone (vector/position type stuff). Plus there's a plethora of youtube videos out there including a video to go from blank project to full STEAM multiplayer integration with a menu and scoreboard and whatnot in 2 hours. Thanks to companies generously providing these engines for free, programming/coding is going to really be a everyday skill for a lot more people. It's a hell of a lot more fun to learn coding using a game engine than it is to make some sort of linux terminal program. Justin Tyme fucked around with this message at 22:24 on Mar 16, 2016 |

orcinus posted:Google Cardboard is to VR what Star Citizen is to space sims. At least it works and is great for phone VR (of which there is not much). But it does it's job and doesn't require the user to pay more than 5 bucks. The same can't be said for star citizen.  1500 posted:I need to get around to learning Python, I currently use C, C++, MATLAB, and Java(hate java), but there are some OpenCV stuff that I would like to use that is done in python. I hear ya, Java sucks. Python is incredible, the language is hella easy to understand but has enough complexity to it and enough libraries that it's incredibly useful. I prefer doing statistical analysis in it over Matlab and R simply because of the simple interface. On the other hand, it's processing speed can be really slow for anything science-y that takes a while (iteration, etc). Alternatively, there's Julia which I've started learning that has C++ level of processing speed and is great for statistical analysis. Though the libraries are low, so you'd need to be able to create your own libraries sometimes.

Racing Room Experience has pro drivers in it as well. It is also pricey just like iracing. It is the best sim in my opinion but I dont have iracing so I cant compare. I do have everything else though.

Coding talk: I personally found C# to be easy to learn. From there C++ isn't that hard to get into. If you want to learn about c++ => go here: http://www.learncpp.com/ I think that is the best "easy" intro into C++. It also covers the dangerous pitfalls of c++. Since it's always a bad thing to asume that your code is perfect. AND make sure to read up on UNIT testing. That's something CIG is not doing (and probably most other gaming studiios). And there are some good games on Unity (Shadowrun, Kerbal Space Programm, Verdun etc: https://unity3d.com/showcase/gallery/games). In the past there have been a lot of complaints from studios that Unity had troubles with "bigger" projects. I don't know if that is still the case. That's something which won't bother you, if you're using UE4. But I guess both are quite okay for small indie/art projects.

(as properly as you can via the internet rather than "proper" education)

Sundowner posted:nice, thanks. There are some drat good video tutorials for UE. And the stuff from Epic (Developer of UE) is quite good. It's certainly accesible. And as someone else already mentioned. There is no need to learn about coding from the get go. It doesn't hurt to know what variables are. So you're not going to embarass yourself when you post/talk about 64 bit precision. And most Game Editors are somewhat similar. There might even be some Goon help somewhere in deep parts of the Caverns of COBOL http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=2692947

Squadron 42: a Yeah, that's totally the reason they've not shown anything beyond the Morrow Tour that they've never managed to un-jank enough to post a proper version. It couldn't be that they've got nothing to show, or that what they have to show is so terrible that it would ruin the narrative they've coaxed their faithful to proselytize with. Nope. It's all about the superfantastic script from the braintrust behind Wing Commander: The Movie.

Do you guys think Scientology might expand into video games? Personally I'm hoping for an all encompassing RPG based on the many intergalactic past lives of L Ron Hubbard. Preferably one that I'll be playing for the next 20 years. But I'll probably give to whatever Kickstarter they come up with.
