Two Factor Authentication is now available on BeyondUnreal Forums. To configure it, visit your Profile and look for the "Two Step Verification" option on the left side. We can send codes via email (may be slower) or you can set up any TOTP Authenticator app on your phone (Authy, Google Authenticator, etc) to deliver codes. It is highly recommended that you configure this to keep your account safe.

those are the main ones i know of. what languages to learn depends totally on what you want to make.

From the coding side of things, I'd recommend a very good book called "Black Art of 3D Game Programming" by André LaMothe (ISBN 1-57169-004-2)
I also second bobtheking's www.gamedev.net suggestion as a very good source of information related to all things game design

when flipcode had comments on the IOTD, image of the day, that would have been good. the flipcode IOTD might be good anyway. apparently they used to have comments on the images like the code of the day, but i wasn't there when they did.
you could also submit them to the gamedev.net showcase, or post them in the forums.

It isn't a place for feedback, but Gamasutra is a great game design site - it's articles feature a wide array of topics, all things game design. Garage Games isn't what you're looking for either, but might be another that would interest you.
I'm good with coding, spent two years at digipen. The only problem I having with the code is sound. Some of those web site you gave me the addess on look good for tips on design. I've been working on the code so I haven't had time to look at them to much. The game is just about done just need to work out some game play issues.
Thanks for the help

might want to try OpenAL if you haven't, i like it much better than DirectSound. OpenAL is also easier to do things like EAX, and its extremely easy to make an Ogg player (the queueing of buffers is ideal for streaming from anywhere). nice game
