@dygear. how do you make a script. might be a silly question i dont know, but if i dont ask ill never find out. 
Yeah I've always wanted to know, so pipe up!
A script is a computer program, "making" a script is essentially the same as writing a computer program. The difference between "programming" (C++) and "scripting" (PHP) is that the script is not compiled to machine code (.exe), it's instead read and run by another program, the script interpreter. Writing something simple in a scripting language is often easier then writing it in a compiled language, compiled languages usually require the programmer to handle memory management and datatypes, where scripting languages often convert types automatically and handles all memory stuff for you, at the cost of speed.
Dygear's McLaren script is written in PHP, http://www.php.net/

To "make a script" in 5 seconds with notepad:
Save as hello.bat, double-click the file, you've "made a script".

ooh great, thanks for that filur. I attempted C++ once..... Got a little confused by it as I was 14 at the time :P But I did make some poor programs...
What are most video games build upon then? Can't be C++ !

C++ is the most common. Some times C, and for crazy dev teams (like Invictus) Java >.<
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm 
No I won't attempt it, I'll try and make a little racing game and end up with something like Worms :P

A racing game would be hard unless you want for a 2D racer. In which case any fool with a little free time can knock one up (even I did once).
How about a Command and Conquer style? That has no form of physics whatsoever......
ok. erm, so can you make that sort of thing actually "do" something? youll have to forgive my knowing nothingness and excitment at simple things.

parse_str($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']);

$Mc_Red = imagecolorallocate($im, 255, 0, 0);

$Font_LName = 'Mistral.ttf';
imagettftext($im, 50, 0, 12, 52, $Mc_Red, $Font_FName, $FName);
imagettftext($im, 50, 0, 10, 50, $Mc_Black, $Font_FName, $FName);
imagettftext($im, 28, 16, strlen($FName) * 50 - 115, 75, $Mc_Red, $Font_LName, $LName);
// Using imagepng() results in clearer text compared with imagejpeg()
imagepng($im);
imagedestroy($im);
?>
Hmmm, I wonder if this is a good thing for Fernando?

Yes, a good way would be to decide what you want to do, choose a language for the attempt and read the manual for that language.
