    I just want to vent.... in order to program in a certain game engine (so I can get a paid project), you can't have vis studio 2010 or net framework 4, so, like an idiot, I decide to uninstall net framework 4 first. It breaks my visual studio uninstall, so I reinstall net framework 4. didn't fix it, now I download a program which is supposed to uninstall anything, which accidentally deletes itself trying to uninstall visual studio. now I have to re-download 2.2 GB of data just to uninstall a program, then uninstall net 4, then have to download 2008 professional, then have to hope the game engine works... wow this sucks.

    triclops200, I work at making AI engines.........I think I know how to deal with frustration. You look for other people with worse problems than you. For example other people getting bsods

    Also look into a tool called sharp develop, I dont know if it can do native C++ however it can do all of the .net languages.

    lol, It is the best OS I've ever seen. btw my AI was for tic-tac-toe, It got better each game... after 50 rounds I couldn't beat it with any of my good strategies. also, because I programmed in two AI's... they could play each other and get much better faster... after 10 seconds of play they had done 250 round and were unbeatable(I never lost, but I couldn't beat them).

    ouch... and I used a binary file and arrays and weighted averages (recored whole game and recorded who won and how each move contributed and how many times a game including that move won or lost for that player)
