Just curious..what language is Warthog written in?

Posted

Probably a combination of different things. I remember a job posting from ED for C++ developers, when they were between LOMAC and Flaming Cliffs IIRC, but now I think you need the .Net Framework (2.0 or 3.5) installed.

I'd say they probably started with C++ and later moved to .Net, but some of the original components are probably still there. I'd hate to think of having to convert all the code for such a program to .Net.

My guess would be, as max performance is required, that the main parts of the simulation are written in c++.

Even with JIT, managed code is a lot slower than native.

 

+1. Probs a combination of C and C++.

I wonder if there are any funny comments hidden in the code, seen quite a few in my time where the developers got annoyed.

i think it's mainly written in lua except 3d engine( in c++) which lack hardware buffer ,culling occlusion , and maybe vertex array :(
