i could post you some car physics, and some ai, but i assume this is your first game because you only just joined, so i advise you, dont just straight in and make a game like GTA, ive been porogramming for years and i dont think im ready to make one of these yet, start off with something simple like pong or something, something that you can code by yourself and understand coding, getting pieces of code from other people doesnt just fit in to your program perfectly, its like a jig-saw puzzle that you make, and everything needs to be in the right place, and have all the right variables, and it takes alot of experience to make a game like that..

id suggest starting with pong because:
you have controls
simple physics
simple 3d scenes
simple com AI

stuff like that...

or you could start with something like space invaders, which is slightly harder, but not that hard.

Just dont jump straight to the top rung of the ladder and try to achieve something that most of us have failed to do

actually i have been programming for some time mostly on dark basic though i am new to the forums but i got dark basic years ago. Ive started an endless amount of projects that i havent yet completed. I'm not as good at programming then i am at 3d moddeling and graphics so i cant make amazing games but worth while ones. I'll post some screenshots of my work in progress soon
