Development Language

What Language is GC and GC2 Written In?

February 16, 2005 1:34:44 PM from GalCiv II ForumsGalCiv II Forums
Hi all,

This question may only be answerable by the developers, but I couldn't help but notice that the GC2 website references many ASPX pages - which is Microsoft's ASP.NET technology. Myself having quite a bit of experience developing with .NET, I was curious about the technology used to develop these games. Is it C#? C++.NET? Or perhaps something else?

I know this isn't a "fun" game-related question, but the technical side of me was curious.

I have to admit to wondering exactly the same thing.

I'd be willing to bet it was good old C++ (along with their proprietary desktopX stuff for the interface).

I hope so, that .NET stuff is an extra operating system requirement.

If I'm not mistaken, Brad once posted a snippet of code used in the ai of GC1 and it looked awfully like C++.

We use C/C++ and DirectX.  GalCiv1/AP used DirectDraw7 and GC2 is using DirectX 9.0c.
