This course will look at the fundamentals of rendering in Arnold. We'll go through the different light types available, cameras, shaders, Arnold's render settings and finally how to split an image into render passes (AOV's), before we then reassemble it i

My pref would be to go with C++ as theres a lot of support for it and its quite widely used

C# was created by MS to give the ease of VB and still have the majority of C++'s Low Level Access. So certain things still need C++ to do. Not being a C++ Programmer I cant go much further into it, but thats the basic difference between them.
Most production games engines are written with C++. Torque however is written/scripted with C#

If you REALLY need DX then C#, as you most probably will be a lone programmer, not having a team means you NEED to have any help you can get... plus DX10 looks like it will be completely managed so...
If you either have a team of programmers at your disposal or want to take advantage or copypaste existing code as is then go learning C++

your question makes more sense if you invert the terms... Anyways: in principle you COULD do everything on every of those languages... in the practice you will find some things are easyer or work better in ones than in others...Originally posted by relikz
so could i still make apps using c++ of the same lvl of that if i would use c # (if in example i had the same skill lvl in both)?

C# is a little less flexible and a little bit easyer to write, and code written on it should have less low level bugs. On the other hand C++ is a bit more demanding but if you know what youre doing should produce faster progams...
Short answer... LEARN JAVA.
OR use the language most suited to your needs...
