You don't need a personal teacher trust me.
Find an Internet tutorial, make a simple program.. (I made a calculator  ). Then expand, i made it so it could so things like "10+20" it would reply with "10+20 = 30".
Then keep making and experimenting for a few years, then you know C++.
If i was you, i would completely give it up. scripts.dll while rather simple, is nothing a newbie (i just set myself up for something i know it  ) should be messing with. A lot of people think they want to learn C++ or VB or some other language, but it really isn't as good as you think. Ther're are other things you could do that are far better. Other than that, a lot of C++'ers didn't start on C++ they started on things like java-script, php, perl (i'm not sure about php and Perl, i think they are compiled, just not by thr user. unless they are making a binary) or something parsed. then moved over to the "big-boy" stuff. I don't want to make out i know C++ inside out or are completly 1337 at it. I do know what i'm talking about though. I have a 5 hour drive tomorrow, maybe ill make some of the things in a SSGM plugin as well as the gravity gun slave asked for. If you want to mod rene, i would get good at photo-shop and GMAX (or MAX9) (if you already arn't).

:/ Have you read the other posts? I just got the program today, and I know nothing! It's going to take me a long time to learn and get use to the C++ enviroment unless I find several good tutorials, go to college, or get a book about C++. But all those would still take too long. I need some kind of personal teacher.

There are many resources on my forums you will find useful. I am not teaching native C++, but there is an introduction to the IDE tutorial on my forums and we'd be happy to answer any questions you have.
You can find the IDE video in this topic.

Hope that helps you a bit.

Yes! I did it! I finally got a beacon to spawn a buildings! I have one problem though. JFW_Disable_Physical_Collision doesn't do anything. I still get stuck after creating the buildings. Help?
Edit: Plus I can't get the buildings too shoot people. :/

Ok. The buildings collision thing and got the buildings to shoot people. Again, thanks for your help guys. I'll ask here again if I start to get anymore problems.
Edit: How do I make a building spawn the direction I face?
