Stop bugging people with your newbie questions..If you take some time to research for yourself you will most likey find what you are looking for..I hate seeing posts "books on 2D development" when one of the best books "Tricks of the Windows GamePrograming Gurus" is constantly talked about all over this site..I am a newbie myself but when I have problems I can find solutions from one of the thousands of tutorials online..just look for yourself, and see what you find

This forum is a place to get help. No one is making you read posts with newbie questions. I agree, you can find many articles on topics on the internet, but that doesn''t mean that simple questions aren''t allowed here. If you are annoyed by the posts containing simple questions (which you don''t have to read in the first place), then you should just leave. No one can know everything, which is why this forum should be a good resource for people to gain knowledge from, no matter how simple their questions are.
Hold up..I said they should look for answers before they post..most of the answers are there, they just need to look for them..I know this is a place for questions to be answered that is why you should check the whole site first..there is nothing but answers on this site

Ok, first things first, before talking, use your own advice. You should learn to use the right forum to post topics like that, second of all, if you don''t like one fo the topic of the forum, don''t read it. Now with that said, keep in mind that there are alot of people who visit this site and we all have to start somewhere.

And yet here is another alternative...Since this seems to concern you so much (that you had to start a post on it) why don''t you at least give newbies advice on were to look and how, that way they are armed with the tools needed to search for an aswer on there own.

This might be a dumb question to some people..but does anyone
know what language they program in..also how do they convert it
to the consoles(if the code on computers?)..I was just wondering
and that somebody would know the answer here..PEACE!!


I''m sure it could be easily found online. Why did you bother posting this question? Are you too lazy to take the time to research it?

You are wrong, the newbies questions not neccesary came from dummies!!.. In fact is very usual that some veteran have some stupid and easy problem that he cannot resolve.

And find tutorial about 2d/3d is not at easy to find, programming tutorial is very easy. In fact, search a decent tutorial for low-poly modeling is very tough (some in 3dcafe, another in polycount and stop counting)..

I could not reply to this last post yesterday..why you might ask..I was busy reading "Tricks.." you should know the rest.. Again I state "seek and ye shall find" I have problems with
posts when a person is to lazy to search..I have been up past 3:00am on Google searching for something(usually just porn LOL), so to put this thing to rest and stop the debate(me ofcourse ya''ll can continue if you like) I have no problems with the posts if they have really tried to find answers..PEACE!
