Mac Gaming Mods

probably shoulda posted in the general discussion...


anyways, can anyone tell me some resources where i can learn how to program? Jonathan has been helping me some, and i'm starting to understand hex-editing, a little, but i need some resources where i can learn more.

So someday I want to try to make some good modding apps as well. But (someday) right now i just want to learn more.

Well Im not so good at making apps the only useful one I made was a white screen app so I wouldn't have to clean up my desktop if Im recording something. If you want to make good apps I'd suggest some books on code like c++ cocoa elc. I do find the apple resources in Xcode helpful. Start out with the new SDK I think I have SDK beta 5, I don't know if you still can get the betas.

I've found that I learn the best by just diving straight in.

Between sparkedit and hacking the iPhone last summer I taught myself Obj-C simply by looking for patterns in syntax until I understood the code syntax, then just looking up Cocoa classes in the Cocoa API as I needed them.

Put simply, I opened up code and messed with it.

However, I had found and bookmarked this a while ago:

http://www.cplusplus.com/doc/tutorial/introduction.html

It looked good for learning C++, but I never really used it.

thanks, i'll look into it, i did have a sdk not long ago, but it said i needed leopard to install the tools,

In the mean time, anyone know of just a simple walkthrough, that tells how to make a basic app, teaching the basics along the way?
