I know some C++, but probably not enough to help. Where would I go to learn QuakeC? I looked it up but apparently there are several variants.

learn your coimmands for nexuiz here

download nexuiz latest version here

load it up, press ` (tilde) when you have loaded up a map, and play around with commands and syntax.

that might get you started, i hope it helped :)

The wiki for commands posted above is a bit out of date and divVerent has actually stopped making builds so that package file is a tad out of date as well. For the _very_ latest, you should check out Nexuiz from SVN. Here's a quick tutorial on how to do that. It's not the most elegant script but it work :-P. Nexuiz is compiled with fteqcc.

For a searchable up-to-date (2.4.2, svn soon ;o)) list, check out this cvar and command list.

Another good resource is OUNS Wiki which includes this overview of Nexuiz QuakeC written by the head developer divVerent.

Other good resources would be the following IRC channels:
