Hi,
Thanks for your reply Tim,
I found just a couple books worthwhile:
http://www.amazon.com/Game-Engine-Design-Interactive-Technology/dp/1558605932
http://www.amazon.com/Engine-Toolset-Development-Graham-Wihlidal/dp/1592009638/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1238466839&sr=1-4
Which of these do you think would be best? Or is there another that would be
good for me?
We plan on making a really simple engine that we could build on. My friend
insists on making a 3d engine....he is a good arguer, I might be able to
convince him otherwise if i need to though. Though, all the online tutorials
don't look worthwhile.
Thanks,
Julian

Julian,
This is one of those questions that you want to use Amazon.com
for book searches or Google for simple engine design. Depending on the
complexity
of the game you are designing you can build an engine with adaptability and
flexibility
for future iterations of your game.

Hey guys,
I am looking for what would be the best way to make a simple game engine using
C++. Me and a few friends were going to try to make a simple engine from
scratch,
but we are now sure how to do that. If it is possible to make an engine with
MVC++(Microsoft Visual C++ express) are there any good tutorials on how to? And
if you can't make it with only MVC++, what is the best way of making one?
Thanks,
Julian
