Just realized I originally posted this on GTA3, so I'm reposting here.

 

Can anyone tell me which programming languages GTA SA was written/developed in?

Copied over from GTA3 post response:

 

You asked an SA modding question in the GTA3 PC forum lol.gif

 

Yep, meant to post in GTA SA, just hit the wrong link. My apologies for the inconvenience, however. I have already re-posted under GTA SA - Xbox & PC.

 

SCM is compiled. If anything, it would be a machine language. Barton's compiler was originally made to look C-ish, but in the SCM way of doing things. Maybe check out that area and look around before creating topics in the wrong place wink.gif

 

Thanks for the pointer to the proper forum, I did look around first. I read through the top level posting regarding minimum system requirements, posting rules, etc. Wanted to be kosher and all that.

 

"SCM is compiled." Sorry for the naive question, but I don't even know what this means. First, what is SCM? Second, I understand compiling involves a compiler (roughly equivalent to an engine, or matrix if you will). But what compilers were used in developing the game in the first place? Specifically I'm wondering what programming languages were used to write the original version, and what, if any, compilers or porting utilities were used to translate the game to PC. Also, I'd like to know what programming languages the PC version is shipped in. I'm not sure 'machine language' is really what I'm looking for, although I could be wrong...

 

Thanks

Sorry you've still got the wrong forum, I'll move your initial topic to the right place.
