hacking

[alleyn]

so if i learn visual basic
and i decide to switch to c#
in the future will it be hard switching?

[Kiev]

Yes and no.

They have different coding styles, but its the same in some ways.

[The-Eradicator]

No.

They have different coding styles, but its the same in some ways.

Aside from learning syntax, it won't be hard at all. Starting with .NET Framework 4.0 you'll actually be able to use C# and VB.NET in the same project. There are literally automatic converters that can go from one language to the other with very few errors.

hmmm so im going to learn visual basic first then
my friend stole me a very good book from school
thats on visual basic,
um what knowledge do i need to know to build hacks anyways?

What is hacking? If someone tries to access your email unsuccesfully is it still hacking?
Hacking is defined as penetrating in someone's network or computer system. If someone makes an unsuccessful attempt to gain access into your email account without getting access is it still called hacking? Normally after three unsuccessful attempts the email is temporarily blocked.

Honestly C# teaches you better coding practises than VB.NET which is better in the long run when you want to learn another language.

Also just cos VB.NET is a bit simpler in terms of syntax, doesn't mean it's going to be simpler when you get to some of the advanced stuff which is what you're going to need if you want to be "HACKING".

What I'm saying is that if you're able to learn "hacking" in VB.NET then you're going to be able to learn C#, so you might as well just learn C#

VB.NET and C# can be automatically converted to each other. Either is as practical as the other, but if you know neither, learn C#, because it teaches you coding practises you'll find used in many languages, and if you ever need to learn C++ you'll find it a lot easier.

I would still (in your case) learn either C# or C++. I'm learning VB.Net rite now and the syntax is like... Kindergarten.

To be a good Hacker (for games) you need to know several things:
1. and easiest: Injecting .dll s into running processes (Not hard like at all)
2. Decompile / Reverse Engineer / Debug - Processes / Programs (This is probably as far as I can tell the hardest thing to learn)
3. Going around Anti-Cheat Software. They will be hard work. Promise.
4. Networking and Packet-Editing (Not neccessarily)
5. Memory Editing.
6. Some other Fancy stuff I dont know anything about

Nope. It has some similaritys but thats it. C# is about the same as VB.Net

C++ is a little harder.

You should learn C++ anyways since you have more possibilities.

C++ is good for making games,

C# is good for making softwares.

Putting it roughly.

Not really c# is perfect for console games, look at XNA :P

wut, you can do anything in any of the language. But the severities may vary
