The railroad bridge. I remember I thought something in the lines of "what a nice background element" when I saw it from far away, when the first train drives over it. Then I thought "Wow, it's no background, it's an actual part of the game" when I realized I had to cross it with the buggy...

Looks great! Can't wait to see the finished version!

That depends... for example, if you have deeply nested if-else-clauses, sometimes brackets help to make it clear which 'else' belongs to which 'if', even though they are not necessary for the syntax. :)

No, brackets around single statements don't cause errors.

const int n = 20; int x[] = {n}; That's wrong. If you're trying to create an Array of 20 Integers, you just have to type: int x[20];

Uhh, 100 Dollar for an Academic license of MSVC 2003? I got an Academic license of MS Visual Studio .net 2003 professional including the msdn library for nine (!!!) Euros at the University Of Applied Sciences I'm studying at!

Yes, Reason is pretty cool, if you know how to use "real" Studio equipment, you're all set to go.... although some details go on my nerves (grammar?) For example, in the sequencer, you cannot select all notes of a certain key by clicking on that key on the piano roll - a feature I was used to...

You can pass variables to the function by Reference (So they're not copied as normal, but the *original* gets changed inside the function). Normal: void myFunc(int myVar) { blah... } Here, changing myVar in the function does *not* change the myVar in the calling routine (eg, main)...

Well I could take the Pad from one of your Tracks and put it in something like my "Follow the white rabbit", for example... There wouldn't be much left from your track then, tho :)

I'm a bit more into Trance ;) My stuff is @ mp3.de/privatepanic, the more to the top, the newer (and IMO better) the Tracks. I was thinking of doing a Remix of one of your tracks, but I guess it's kinda hard to turn Drum&Bass etc. into a trance remix... :)

Well done - though not my Music. But technically good :) What's your equipment?

Eh? Starting with C++ and then "move on" to Visual Basic? That's like, say, learning on a Ferrari to drive a Volkswagen Bug ;)

Crap, can't view it, damn M$ Mediaplayer proprietary P.O.S. :/ Can someone rip it and host it somewhere in some OS-Independent videoformat, plz? ;) Oh well *sigh*

With "something simpler" I didn't mean "some simpler HL2 Mod", I meant "something simpler in C++" ;) A SDK like the HL2 SDK is a huge pile o' C++, you have to be *very* confident in your C++ skills before trying to mess with the HL2 SDK or similar complex Engines.

Well. You put your code outside of any class / member function definition, at global scope... Without sounding too harsh, I'd strongly suggest to you to try something simpler at first, and: Do some c++ tutorials!!! ;)
