What programming languages and compilers are compatible with - Kennedy - 01-26-2011
I am an amateur video game maker, and I have some experience with Autodesk 3DS Max 9 Student Edition. I would like to make a first person game with Autodesk, but I need a programming language and a compiler that I can use with it. Please do not worry agout how easy the language is to use.

It depends heavily on what you mean.
You can use Visual C++ to create plugins for 3ds max (Visual C++ Express 2008 is free, by the way).
You can export objects and animations from 3ds max to DirectX format, which can be used by DirectX applications (in any language you choose).
