First off i suggest you learn the basics of C++, go here And if you have any problems when learning find an IRC channel for c++ help im don't know one but im sure there are ones out there, just google it. You'll nead an IDE (integrated development enviroment) for c++ i recommend codeblocks Once you have that under your belt your set.... For your 3D game you'll need: a graphics engine like irrlicht and then apply it with irrWizard. This is a good setup. And there are several extras for irrlicht like irrEdit, irrNetwork and so on... (irrNetwork is so you can make your game online... so people can play other people over the internet!) You'll will need a map design program (not sure what they are called): a good one is GTKRadiant, to set it up go here And you'll need a modeller... i suggest Blender Okay thats what you are going to need at most. irrWizard is awesome becuase it already supplies AI (computer controlled players) Don't get fustrated it takes a while to learn C++... THERE IS ANOTHER ALTERNATIVE I KNOW OF... which is probably a lot easier. Google my capitals words if confused(becuase i am not onehundred percent familiar with this: learn and get the PYTHON enviroment... This shouldn't take long it is a lot less complicated language than C++ but they both have the same concepts, thus once you've learned it it will be easeir to go and leanr other programming languages! once you got PYTHON, read about PYGAME - to make 2D games and get familiar with it. then learn about py3d (PYTHON 3D) or something like that and pyOpenGL (PYTHON OPENGL) - to make 3D games That's it hopes this helps!
