Hey, I'm really new to D, and pretty new to programming
overall too,
But I want to make a 3d Game, (just sth. small). I really like
D and want to do it in D, but in the Internet there is no shit
about programming a game in D ^^
Is there any engine written in D?
For example the CryEngine is for C++, so I would have to write
a wrapper?
So, how do I write a wrapper? I would need a wrapper for
DirectX too right?
Are there any wrappers ore Engines for D i can use?
btw. I know I dont write that in 1 day ^^
Are there any tutorials or sth. on Programming a Game in D?
Soooooooo I just wanna come as far to have a little Cube where
i can run around on with a few phisics :) so just the startup
to load a world and so on
Thanks in advance :)
And sry my english sucks :D
There are quite a few game related libs on code.dlang.org that
you can take a look at. Also see some of the recent D.announce
posts.
Yep. Start by learning dub (code.dlang.org), which is a build
automation tool that helps you alot by saving headaches caused by
the heap of dependencies that a "complex" software like a game
has. Don't start by diving into graphics just yet, spend your
first days by doing stuff on the command line.
There are a few engines that are being developed by others, but
there's nothing like e.g. Unity right now. I think that every
engine is in "early" development stage, too.
Also, I think most of current libraries use OpenGL instead of
DirectX, so you might want to learn that (at least the basics).
