  1. I agree with FuChelle. It all depends on what one belives in.I am an Orthodox Christian and I belive in God.Life is just a short trip or should I say a test for the Lord to see if we are worth of eternity. We are born in a world full with temptations, pain and suffering so people hardly belive in a perfect world where nothing bad happens, but it's all about that.We are not like dinosaurs, animals or plants.We have a soul that God gave us and we have to be thankful for everything we have.Obey the God, respect His rules and live long and happy.More you suffer here, more you will enjoy in afterlife. Like I said, I'm an Orthodox Christian and I belive in God.My opinion may vary compared to those who belive in aliens, Big Bang or that we were made out of nothing.
  2. ANSI stands for American National Standard Institute and they deal with standards like ASCII (255 characters).More newer standard is UNICODE (65,536 characters). C++ is not as hard as people think.Perhaps they stop at linked-lists, vectors, classed and they discontinue with learning the language because they don't have anyone to explain them details.What can I say to you except that you have to work hard before you master C++, but once you do it there's no limits. Either take a class or learn by yourself.Whenever you hit a problem, you can always ask for help on forums. I recommed you download a book by Denis Ritchie - C Programming language. Here're some good C++ tutorials: C++programming Cplusplus Good C++ courses (10$ membership) Programmers heaven Game programming Wiki
  3. The most beautiful car in the world is definitly Audi A8! Just check the beauty. http://shrani.najdi.si/ http://shrani.najdi.si/ http://shrani.najdi.si/
  4. I don't think you can do that. because those subdomains are used as webforward and not as domain names so you can't setup a DNS on them.However, you can, as I mentioned before, register a (free) domain name at http://www.rs.sr/ and then setup a DNS there with Xisto servers.
  5. el_exorcista: I wouldn't agree with your first statement.There are lots of differences between programming languages than just a syntax, that's why some people use C++ others use Assembly and someone else perhaps would swear to PHP.It all depends on what you need.If you're going to code CMS I doubt that you'd use Visual Basic to solve the problem. kvarnerexpress: If you're just accessing the gaming industry, you're about to take a long trip my friend. What you really need is patience and a lot of time working hard.Games don't grow over night.You'll spend years of learning before you'll be able to make a decent game. You need to ask your self some questions to start with. - what platform am I focusing on? - what kind on genre I'm interested in? - what's my audiance? - what programming language I'm going to code in? ... You need to know what you want to and then move on. I would strongly suggest you start with C++.Don't rush, focus on one thing.Give your self time, take a year or two mastering C++ and then move on to graphics.Spend some time here (OpenGL, DirectX, SDL...) and then start making games. Let your first project be small and interesting.Don't dream about making new-age Half Life because you'll fail and you'll loose motivation and interest for game programming. You'll want to visit these websites: GameDev Gamasutra Flipcode HeHe Gamedev Buy a book or two.You have plenty of information on the net but nothing beats a good book.I would suggest OpenGL Superbible.I learned alot from it, it's worth every penny I paid. You're going to have alot of headaches, nervous brakedowns and keyboard smahing moments but after you overcome beginner stage it will be alot more easier.Just don't give up (or use game maker software ). Good luck and I hope to see your creation in the near future.
  6. Moving installed Linux system from one box to another is not really the best option and perhaps not even possible without causing headaches since the hardware may vary a lot and you could experience lots of problems.The only thing I can think of right now is to make new installation on your new box and move software there, because it's not possible to move the whole Linux system and expect it to work..This is how I would do it.First thing you should do is make backup of your system.Make backup copies of all software you installed and plan to use on your other computer.Backup configuration files, which are mostly in /etc folder or in your home directory and don't forget symbolic links some programs create, mostly under /usr.Now move the files to your new box and restore them exactly as they were on your first box.That would be it.Easier said then easy done but I don't see any other way of doing it.I seriously advise you not to move your installation from one box to another.Try with new installation of the system and its software and consider this option as the last possible.I've never done such thing so I can't be 100% sure it works but looks like you have to try and I hope I gave some useful pointers.
  7. I belive free DNS service is what you're looking for.If you want a free short domain with DNS setup you should definitly check out freedns.afraid.org.When you register you have an option of adding multiple domains/subdomains of all types.You can also register a Republika Srpska's domain at http://www.rs.sr/ for free and setup a DNS.That's all I can think of now.
  8. That's because MFC is only for Visual C++.MFC stands for Microsoft Foundation Class and it's already included in the compiler. This is a class diagram of a MFC 6.0 library: http://ii.uni-mb.si/ I can provide you with some tutorials we used to use in school. CHAPTER 1 - MFC classes, CString, CPoint, CRect, CSize CHAPTER 2 - classes, inheritage, virtual functions CHAPTER 3 - collections, object fields, pointer fields, templates, CArray, CObjList, CFile, Serializing: CArhive CHAPTER 4 - MFC programs, events, DC. controls, menues, dialogs Books about MFC: Jeff Prosis, Programming Windows with MFC David J. Kruglinski, Programming Visual C++ Shirley Wodtke, Learn the MFC C++ Classes Tutorials about MFC: Excellent tutorials about programming with MFC Tutorials on DevCentral If you're planning to code under Linux, you should check QT, Glade, Motif and GTK libraries.
  9. You have lots of good proxies here http://www.proxy4free.com/list/webproxy1.html , but if you're searching for a proxy software I suggest you look at http://www.easyproxy.com/en/content/ezproxy/overview.htm and http://www.youngzsoft.net/ccproxy/.
  10. I don't understand people who want to use Linux but don't want to leave Windows.What's the point of trying it then? You want to use Linux? Format your drive and install it, that's the best way of doing it.Ofcorse you can also use LIVE distributions, but don't come up with stupid ideas like Lindows, Winix, Win-Lin and so on.Linux under Windows is just a freaking disaster! Use either Windows or Linux, don't mix these two together!For all of you kids out there, haven't you heard of VMWARE?
  11. I assume you're talking about Windows. You could try MFC library. Create new project using Win32 application.Don't let the wizard add any files, choose empty project..Add a .cpp file and copy the code below and compile. #include <afxwin.h>struct CMainFrame : public CFrameWnd{ CMainFrame() { Create(NULL, "Test"); }};struct CTestApp : public CWinApp{ BOOL InitInstance() { CMainFrame *Frame = new CMainFrame(); m_pMainWnd = Frame; Frame->ShowWindow(SW_NORMAL); Frame->UpdateWindow(); return TRUE; }};CTestApp theApp; MFC provides two important classes, CWinApp and CFrameWnd.The first class provides level functionalities and the second one provides functionalities for GUI.You have tons of reading material on the internet so I suggest you use Google.com If you're planning to code GUI applications on Linux I would warmly recommend QT library.
  12. I would suggest Slackware to a beginner but Linux is getting mainstream more and more every day so it's not really a big deal for a newbie to setup its own linux distro.I've run many flavours of Unix and Linux and from I've try and learn, I still like BSD systems the most.I like to have a full control over the system.I run Fedora Core 4 also.It's great and its more alike to Windows considering the multimedia part.I can watch any type of video format, listen to music, use photoshop and office sofware and I even run games like Counter Strike and Age of Empires.After installing your Linux I suggest you look around on XMMS, Xine, Wine, WineX (Cedega), aMsn, but what I like the most is the mounting power.You can access any file on Windows you like with one line of code.You will need two partitions for installing Linux.One EXT2, I suggest atleast 5Gb and one SWAP, slightly bigger or equal as your RAM.You can set this up easily with Partition Magic under Windows.Installing Linux is really a piece of cake.
