Can C++ do this?

Post by drahdellort »

1) Can C++ make a flight simulator game?

My friend told me that C++ cant make games with much physics that involves air pressure and air resistance, he say you have to use a more advanced language like java for that.

2) Can C++ make games for run on playstation 3?

I would like to create a game for playstation 3. It will be like grand theft auto including flying planes. It will be better because you can go inside every building! also the pedestrians in the game are much more realistic behaviours.

This is funny.
C++ can't do 3D on its own, but uses DX9 and OpenGL. Irrlicht is a 'wrapper' for this, and to use Irrlicht you use C++.
GTA already has a flight thing, and while going into buildings is a good idea, it's impractical to make.

GTA has 100s of people working on it, so if you do manage to make a better version I would be very suprized!

C++ is much more advanced than Java.

Irrlicht can make games for Xbox, with the right compiler, but i am not sure about PS3
(and anyway, licenses for both of these are v expensive)

Dude , are you Ok? Irrlicht 'IS' C++ code...! i.e. its a lot of C++ Code that can be called by yet more C++ code...

I'm starting to wonder if most of the people on this forum have learnt even a bit of C++ before finding Irrlicht and then wanting to make a world changing game, thinking to just learn C++ as they go?

IMO you should learn how to ask questions the smart way first. They inspire other peoples.

Yes it can be done in C++. For programming on the PS3 I can't tell. Anyway making a GTA would be a big pain alone.
