Sounds like a very cool project, but a big one. When you say 3D game, do you mean like quake or like 3D pong? How much time do you have?

Yes you can use it, there should be no problems.

Google for C++ tutorials.

Sound stuff, I assume that would be pretty easy to learn.

You probably would appreciate a book, especially if it is your first language.
It takes about a year to learn a language to the point where you can do cool stuff. Again, time comes into the equation. You might want to look at something simpler if you don't have a lot of time.
Learning with a friend is cool. It helps.

Good luck and have fun.

PS don't take my word as the absolute truth, I have only had experience in java.

3d game as in quake actually we don't have much time only 2 semester or seven months. and i really want to create a game
for linux since linux is lacking in games! £Ä3

thanks for the help i'm searching for weeks now and i
don't attend my class very often because i'm kinda tired
actually i haven't taken my major exam! £Ä3

i forgot if any of you know any freeware that
can make a sound from a scratch please give
me any suggestion and a tutorial! £Ä3

do you have a microphone? I have heard that an earbud will work when plugged into the mic port. Record your own sounds.

I would suggest going to the class... they actually turn out to be useful sometimes! ;)

microphone yes i do have one and thanks 4 the concern
yes i do attend my class now because i'm kinda tired of
looking maybe id try to search some other time and i
think id stick with blender i thought i cant install it
because i have a different kernel what is the difference
of i386 and i686 anyway?thanks for the help! £Ä3
