Become a Better Self Learned Coding Master? - CrazyCoder - 03-18-2018
Server Side Coding is were it's at. You can add new weapons, maps, and models. But at the end of the day it's still stock CoD1/UO with some assets. To be a modder you need to know more than just client side script menu coding, if you want to do more then spinoff carbon copies...
I consider myself visual and learn by doing person. Sitting in college reading 1,000 page books on "theory" and hearing lecture would be ultra weird to me.
Most of the information can be found outside of textbooks and academia. Cut out the student loans and monologues, mind as well sign up for those non-credit online programming courses. Like a project based online course were you build a basic game like a side-scroller Mega Man or something.
Anyone tried one of these?
1. edX
2. Khan Acamedy
3. Udemy
4. Alison
5. Udacity
6. Code Academy
7.Lynda
8. Duolingo
9. Team Tree House
10. OpenCulture
I'd likely enroll in those courses if anyone can recommend them. Still would be far cheaper then College or Trade School.
