2 Months of Learning How to Code for Games with SFML / C++

Grinding with the hope of getting there someday.
Resources:
While i was trying to upload projects to github, visual studio deleted my project files. (It synced with empty repository, resulting deletion of the original files...). Never used visual studio to manage github ever since then. Sorry I cant provide source files for this one.

[@hell_with_it]

I started coding in C++ with use of SFML few days ago. You gave me a motivation🤩🤩

im your 90th sub plus even nvidia thing pops up like it knows this is a game

[@Lavrhard]

That is good job. I am exploring it myself.

[@TuysuzTavsan]

good luck!

Man I hope one day I'll have your coding expertice

[@mr.milindsingh7671]

This is so great. Amazing work man. This is exactly what I was looking for. Can tell me where did you learn it from ? Any sources? I also have to make a physics engine for my academic work and god knows I dont know where to start from. Pleaaseee hellppp!!

[@hadedev]

Really goood video!

[@kinershah464]

All this in 2 months. That's seriously awesome man. I recently also published a simple game made using SFML. But what you have done is crazy, keep it up. And yes repo link please. And seriously make some more videos and teach how you did all this, people will like it.

[@TuysuzTavsan]

Original project is loss due to me not knowing how to use git. I deleted files when trying to push via visual studio lol.

[@kinershah464]

@@TuysuzTavsan OMG! Sad to hear that..

[@TheSlashvanhalen]

awesome. I'm unemployed atm and want to improve my cpp skills as i look for a job. I've always felt a little intimidated by game development even though I have wanted to give it a shot for a long time. Your video has given me the inspiration to just go for it. Thank you! Did you use any specific resources to learn cpp and sfml specifically?

[@TuysuzTavsan]

Nothing really specific, here is my recommendation to learning anything code related: If you think you can somehow do it on your own then do it. Else if you think you can pull it of by reading some documentation or by getting hint, then search for them. Else if you dont have any info about the problem, look it up on web and try to find a person who approaches to problem on a video or in stream. Reading general stuff about c++ or library also helps a lot in the way and you should be doing that constantly. Example: learning how threads work is a nice goal for every programmer.

I really appreciate that, thanks.

[@chsdfsbwersdf2568]

First of all, it is impressive that you have learnt so much in such a short time, congratulations! If you don't mind me asking, what would you say was the most important factor that made you learn so fast? I tend to over-analyse everything, so that's why I'm asking.

[@TuysuzTavsan]

I would say that your impression of so much is not quite right. Graphics are just a fancy illusion. Behind the scenes everything you see in this video is poorly written code without any design decisions or experience. I even accidentally deleted all my code for the terrain project while trying to upload it to github from visual studio. (I was trying to use github for the first time. And never used visual studio for it since then lol. I mean why would it delete my code?? who made it that way...) I remember all the struggles. Downloading a compiler and trying to add it to environment variable... Header and source file struggle what is linker? What is a dll? what is static linking Downloading cmake to build some library (sfml glfw etc) what is even cmake????? What's an ide what is a text editor... Should i use vscode or vs? should i download linux? What is debug mode?? Should i use sfml or sdl ?? How do you even create a window without sfml??? What do you mean windows are platform specific ?? What is opengl and vulkan??? In the core of every subject, its actually simple. But you may need some time to learn it, thats how it is. I like to set goals and record or simply keep a record of achieved goals. But every people is different.

[@TheCourtJester.]

if you dont know where to begin, i just started myself learning about it, and videos from dave churchill arent bad, he posts his lectures from uni on youtube, hes using sfml for his lectures

[@sadafdev]

Can I ask you what resources you used to learn C++ and SFML. If that is any free tutorial/course or documentation, please give me the link of that :>

[@vladislav6700]

I have a question. Was it a real 3d project or just a sprites with illusion of 3d blocks? I need the answer because this project gave me a motivation and i want to rewrite this project in my own.

[@TuysuzTavsan]

sprites with illusion of 3d blocks

[@clarencehernandez6606]

Where or how do you learn sfml. Can you give a websites or video links that will also help me to learn it

[@TuysuzTavsan]

Its obviously their documentation. However I do know that for a beginner, trying to read throughout the documentation is hard and not really helping. And lack of information about general stuff such as computer graphics, audio and platform specific things makes it only harder. However I dont remember any resource I used while learning it. Maybe only usefull advice i can give is: Find anyone that you like and watch how they use the library, how they deal with things that they dont know about library, how they use the documentation. Also I remember looking up stuff I dont know. Such as what is delta time and gameplay loop. Eventually you will build up knowledge and everything will get easier as you go.

Merhaba, C, C++ ve Assembly programlama dilleri için önerebileceğiniz eksiksizce kapsamlı bir şekilde anlatan kaynaklar var mı?

Unfortunately when i was trying to upload it to github via Visual studio interface, somehow visual studio deleted my project.... I believe, visual studio tried to fetch instead of a push. (Of course it is my fault, probably missclicked a button. But still it shouldnt delete my project just like that...)
