All right, I have seen on here that most people want to get into the gaming industry, so they start trying to program games... while you may or may not be successful with this, I can assure you that knowing actual programming languages will help you more than knowing hw to use game engines, because when you use pre-built engines, you are using pre-built methods, meaning that your program is restricted.
For example:
Say you are using an engine that adds 2 and 2, and prints "4" to a screen. Now, in your program, you want to subtract 2 from 4. Well, you're S.O.L. The method (a form of code in which an input is recognised, and transferred into an action) only allows you to add, but if you knew how to subtract... see where I'm going?
Anyway, my basic idea is to offer help with Java (not too useful of a language, but is similar to C#/C++), and once you learn syntax, begin working on C-based programming.
If anyone is interested, download Eclipse at ----------------- and then post on here. I'll tell you how to get started, and you might learn something that'll help you immensely.
