I was wondering, how do you guys create the world we are in for the game? Like is there a huge graphics generater or something where you create the world? If so, can someone point me in the right direction of one? I would like to try some of it out.

The project uses the open source 3D engine Crystal Space. It\'s written in c++ so of course you\'ll have to know how to code to test it out. (Or perhaps you could test it If you do 3D modelling as well).

Also, does anyone know of any good C++ tutorials to get started? I\'d like to learn how but can\'t find any decent ones on google. I have never programmed before so won\'t even know most of the terminology.

Acraig, just a heads up your link doesn\'t work.

The link works, it is just very slow and may timeout before the page opens.

The link doesn\'t work
[Spoiler warning]
---------------------
There\'s a . (dot) before the / (slash) in the end of the url, rendering the link useless
But as said: Everything you\'ll ever need is on http://www.Gamedev.net

I do don\'t know if your question should have been made here, but well, since you\'ve already made it, I\'ll try to answer you.
I understand that you\'ve made a little program yourself.
In order to launch it, first you\'ve to compile it (there should be a button called \"compile\") after that, some errors might appear, focus on them and try to correct them; that is, modify lines, compile again, till there are no errors. The next step is linking, and then executing.
Anyway I seem to recall there was an option (called build? perhaps) that made those steps at once. I think there\'s also a button with an exclamation mark that launches the program once you\'ve compiled it (not really sure about this last) but anyway, after all the process is finished, you\'d have a .exe file in the same directory where you\'ve the .c or .cpp files of your program.

I thought that program costed alot of money but i might be wrong

You won\'t find anything better than that. You might find something which is as good as that, that you might like better. easier? well that should be possible.
Look at delphi/pascal or maybe even java if you relly didn\'t like c/c++.
Search for tutorials. The internet is filled with those

MSVC 2005 Express is a free edition of the platform.
If you have problems I suggest you to read the documents that are available all over internet which may help you with your problem. It is a bit vague as it is to know how to help you, but there are plenty of forums out there specific for MSVC.

I would suggest you try using Dev c++ or quincy if you are new to c++, instead of vc++ express.
