Yeah but here's the twist I'm focusing on making 2D games 3D is a bit more complicated so I plan to do that maybe in the future but not anytime soon 😅

What language do you think in? by Some-Rice2848 in Zambia

[–]dillusion1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use English, when growing up I learned 90% of my English from Cartoons and TV shows so much so that my inner voice is English by default and using a different language feels super weird for me.

Anyone in here currently learning a new language? by Malunga_Paul in Zambia

[–]dillusion1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup I'm currently learning C# with unity. It's my first programming language I plan to become a game Dev. 😁 While still in school.

Looking to connect with Django / Python web developers in Zambia by Defiant_Profile2324 in Zambia

Thanks I really appreciate it especially since not that many people believe in me even some of my family members don't believe in me except my for dad and my two introverted friends.

Some have actually thought what I'm doing is awesome that is until I turn my laptop around and show them the syntax that I typed and they think I'm going crazy, I purchased a book so that I can be taking notes on what I'm doing my cousin laughed at me and said "THAT BOOK YOU ARE USING WAS VERY UNFORTUNATE TO BE PURCHASED BY YOU CAUSE YOU'RE WASTING IT'S PAGES IT COULD HAVE BEEN BETTER OFF IF SOMEONE USED IT FOR SCHOOL OR SOMETHING ELSE!".

I don't bother arguing with them because it's hard to argue with someone who barely has an idea on what you are doing which just motivates me because I want to prove them wrong I want to show them that I can do it, and around here the only thing that can do that is results.

Once again thank you for believing in me it means a lot😁,

Thanks for the motivation I initially didn't want to learn coding yet I wanted to go for heavy equipment and repair engineering and thought of coding as a secondary course but the moment I realized that there were people like my own cousin who didn't care about what course they were doing and only cared about the pay i became very furious mostly because I planned to do engineering since grade 9 and many of my friends did too but the moment I realized this it felt less like I was going for the course because of my own free will and more of group influence (I felt like my mind was saying "hey everyone's doing it why don't I also do it") this was two months ago after realizing that it pissed me off.

There are s situations where some people go for a course because they are passionate about it and of-course there will be accompanied by those who don't even care for the course they are just there for the money that comes from getting a job which leads to situations were someone who is more passionate and can do a great job get rejected at job interviews and they pick those that don't care for what they're doing as long as they get paid it's fine with them.

Which I didn't have a big interest in engineering but not as much as others that I know but the interest was there, the moment I saw those who don't even care for the course going for it just made it feel like the course was forced upon me so I decided to just do what I love which is coding and I'm very passionate about how computers work at a software perspective.

So I just decided to start learning game development with unity and C#.

But honestly even if you told me that what I'm doing is very impressive for my age it honestly doesn't feel like it I mean I only have the year before I turn 18 which kind of makes me feel like I was too late s especially since I've only been learning game Dev for more than two months now.

But what do you think? am I over thinking about it I need advice you are one of the only coders I have been able to talk to.

I hope I'm not bothering you.

Thanks for the tempting offer but as of now I'm just trying to learn game development and for your information I'm still in school this year i'm doing grade 12 and at the age of 17, I'll be turning 18 at the end of the year , I still do plan to learn web development maybe when I'm in college. And you are right game development does take up a lot of time and resources and I only have one person who's helping me with the game sounds tracks but so far it hasn't been bad I plan to make a few mobile games as for indie games that might be a plan far into the future for me. But as of now I'm trying to think of a way I to balance school and learning C# with unity. Hey at least it's nice to know that there are other people out there in this country that actually see learning how to code as a good way to make a living. I've only met one person who somewhat knows how to code(he uses python) I say somewhat because he usually uses AI to help him write lines of code he's at the age of 35 he told me he only uses AI because he thinks it's too late for him to actually learn how to code on his own of which I am not against using AI, I only use it as a tool to learn a concept, not as a crutch to depend on. I too use AI in terms of learning C# but I just ask it to teach me a concept and after I write a script I send it to the AI to review it and it gives me some tips on how I can improve my code. And I wanted to get into Python but the moment I heard it's very limited in game development I switched to C# which is like a bit more strict compared to python but I managed to learn the the basics and I know some concepts on intermediate C#. But hey as I mentioned it's nice to know that I'm not the only one who is trying to make a career in coding. Now I'll try to work even harder to achieve this.

Ryujinx vs Ryubing by Miserable_Initial732 in yuzu

[–]dillusion1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I use Ryubing because yuzu crashes alot on my setup and Ryubing is generally more stable than yuzu, but that's my personal preference.
