You can just ****** for RakNet, but I suggest you learn more C++ before trying to make a multiplayer game (Just taking a guess at what you're gonna do).
Also, for an IDE(a syntax highlighting text editor and compiler basically), I suggest code::blocks. It's cross platform, open source, has support for many compilers such as gcc/g++, minGW (windows port of gcc, which is what I use), the Visual C++ compiler, and a lot more.
EDIT : express 2008 is just an IDE, most tutorials will work with most compilers, so there's not need to tutorials just for visual studio |
I already have RakNet, and no, im obviously not gonna make a game yet, im just taking a look to see what C++ code looks like.
CodeBlocks is better than then C++ 2008 Express Edition? |
Ahh, sorry for making that guess than D:
Well, I personally like codeblocks better, it also has a drag and drop gui builder, like visual studio/express, but it uses WxWidgets, a cross platform GUI library. I also like it cause it's got everything, while express is a stripped down version of visual studio, so you can't do everything you can do in visual studio (IDE wise, not code related).
dev C++ is great also, there's a 3rd party version of dev C++ called wxdevC++, which also has the gui builder codeblocks has. C++ looks pretty cool, and it's object Oriented :P
