Ok, I have seen this thread probably a million times before but which compiler is B-E-S-T for programming games? Would it be Microsoft Visual C++, Borland C++, DJGPP, or others? wikedgamer

Personally, I use VC++6 with the Intel compiler.

Couple things.


1st - What is an Intel compiler?
2nd - Whenever I use my VC++6, I always get some sort of "nag screen" after I compile code. My borland one does not do that at all.

A C/C++ compiler made by Intel. It optimizes much better than MSVC''s compiler (not just for Intel CPU''s either). There''s a Linux version out too.
