Something like unity but for C++ programmers

Question

is there anything similar to unity but with the difference that instead of javascript I can use C++?

Answer 1

It is funny, I was looking to learn a little bit of unity as I seen it as requirement for some postings... and I found this question.

I think Ogre3D is great... it may be what you are looking for. here is the link ogre3d.org

Ogre3D is what I used. http://www.ogre3d.org/

Answer 2

It is somewhat of a misconception that Unity uses Javascript. The so-called Javascript used in Unity is actually a dialect of Javascript that is CLI-compatible and is not exactly the same as the official Javascript. Also, you are not limited to using Javascript in Unity. You can also use C#, which is similar to C++ and Java in some ways or the less commonly used Boo script.

Personally, I would recommend using C# in Unity because it is very powerful and allows calling of native C/C++ functions via P/Invoke. Here is a link to the use of plugins: http://unity3d.com/support/documentation/Manual/Plugins.html
