I haven't touched any coding since Actionscript for flash and VC[1]. What is the learning curve for the new VC? I hear it's in C# now. Does that mean I'll hafta buy "learn C# in [insert ridiculously farfetched time frame]" to proceed or is the stuff rather simple to get a hold of at an entry level?

just wondering what I'll be facing here^^

The new VC is not in C#. It's a lot like VC2...on steroids. The learning curve really isn't too high, IMO.

well, more like it won't be. Right now you have to decipher what functions and variablies do on your own, which would not be fun for someone who isnt comfortable with programming in the first place. But with the docs, demos, and help that is being professed to be released with the next version, it should be plenty n00b friendly.l

Consider what you had in V1, then increase that scope to incorporate a much wider potential for cool things you can do with VERGE. You have more control and fewer restrictions, although the freedom - and realisation that you have to program a few things that V1 did for you - can be a little daunting at first.

There are plenty of examples in the V3 files database, though. Textboxes are a good place to start: download a few demos of those. I, of course, recommend mine ;-).

coolness^^

I'm still a little daunted by "Object-oriented". How functions are syntaxed and the like. I never played around with the OO elements of actionscript, I kept it pretty procedural. I guess that's where I'll probly need to experiment a lil'

V3 isn't OO, so it should be pretty quick to pick up if you you're used to procedural programing over OOP.
