I want to learn a new language any recommendations i already knoe php/mysql and flash.

Since PHP/MySQL and Flash are scripting languages used for building web sites, I suggest you learn: HTML (I'm guessing you already know this XD), CSS (Oh you REALLY need this), and JavaScript (Nifty!).

But if you're trying to go to the game developing side, I suggest you learn C++.

Without question, learn Javascript. It's the best bridge from the languages you're familiar with to C++. This is, of course, assuming that C++ (the end-all be-all of coding languages) is your ultimate goal.

Also, from Javascript, you may want to stop over and learn Java. It's, in fact, what my game is being coded in and is very comparable to C++

Sweet sure this isnt my thread but hey that helps me out. Thxs.

C++To add onto Naruto, C++ isnt just for making games. You can make basically anything, so besides games you can make programs/applications.

I know. :D

But since this is a game dev forum... XD

Ohhh good point :p

How well do you know php?

1.Can you read form a file?
2.Can you write to a file?
3.Do you know how to write functions?
4.Do you know classes?
5.Can you OOP in php?(Object Oriented Programing)
6.Advanced looping?(foreach and so on (while and for dont count))
7.References?
8.Sessions and Cookies?
9.Constants?

Those are key php things.
Try www.php.net for advanced php tutorials.
If you learned form a site like www.w3schools.com its not gonna get you much

XML. If you ever want to incorporate sql, php, and flash, the easiest and most dynamic way would be through xml. So thats my suggestion. It's easy to learn anyways, there's just a lot of small details.

After that get into C based languages like plus plus and sharp.
