If you ALREADY got turtoiseSVN and the folder LCS with workspaces subfolder, then you ALREADY used TurtoiseSVN.

Then use Visual C ++ to open the project and code.

www.learncpp.com

Has the very basic's.

To go higher you need to know everything there and then read a few books. They will give you insight on vectors, arrays, class's, member class's, de-referancing, pointers, functions, scope ect that are needed to do code C++ well.

Ofcourse, you could just edit code and learn it on the fly. You should experiment and find what works for you.

The one thing you NEED is the will to carry on. Only that will get you through.

Try to edit small things first; figure out what something PROBABLY means, change it, and find out if you're right. Don't be afraid to make mistakes, you can always undo after compiling. Read a bit of theory, but go back to the game (or a project of your own) and apply what you've learned regularly.

You are learning another language -- as soon as you can, the best thing to do is wade in and just use it. You can study the details as needed. Once you know how to communicate your ideas, learning theory to be better at the language is great. But don't let the pursuit of theory stop you from working on direct applications. Worry about making it work rather than finding the best possible way (or the right way) to make it work.

Get yourself a textbook on it, the kind they teach college students out of. Find one meant for beginners and with plenty of code samples. And find an older edition, because those are cheaper.
