PureBasic Forums - English

Nice game. I do think it could be a bit easier.

By the looks of the thread I don't think a community game can be done. But I'll help anyway but I don't think it will be finished.

It looks like cost money also. There are plenty of open source engines we could use like Ogre3D. Why exactly is the Ogre in PB lacking anyway? I haven't used much of it so I don't understand.

I'll just vote for 3d and I'll use whatever engine that is going to be used in the game.

The Ogre exporter has changed since the version that Purebasic has. So you can't load meshing with the PB Ogre unless you find a version 0.14 exporter. Or you can always wait for the Ogre update.

That physics engine is still in beta and it says the code is not well tested and buggy. Maybe we should use something that is already done like Ode or Tomahawk.

I was thinking 2D because we don't have any good 3D support unless we wait for OGRE or use another engine of lower quality. But 3D would be fine with me but 2D gets my vote.

Use Cartography shop, if you master it you can make beautiful levels. It isn't that hard to learn. I've tried Maplet and I found it harder to make something of quality so I could recommend Cartography shop.

I would help but I think we should wait until the Ogre is updated. IMO, it is the best open source engine out there, so it would be worth the wait.

You can make a wrapper of Purebasic commands if they are for your use only.

I think it was lost during the transfer of the servers after jconserv went down.

I don't think anyone is going to port a commercial engine.

Now that Fred is working fulltime on PureBasic and Ogre 1.0.0 is going to be released tomorrow I'm sure that the 3D commands will be updated very soon.

I need some help making my code smaller. I have somewhere around 220 variables for the factors of different conversions. I have found a way to check and see if 2 different option boxes are checked and that a button is pressed, when this happens it converts a number into another using the 2 checked ...

Thanks a lot, that is exactly what I needed.
