PureBasic Forums - English

The problem is that most mobile devices have ARM CPU's and no x86 CPU's. So the support for Windows CE is not enough, we would need a complete new compiler that generates ARM code and all the librarys must be compiled for ARM too.

It would be very nice to have it, but there are currently no plans ...

Will PureBasic ever be available for Windows CE? Lots of hand held devices and low spec netbooks run Windows CE, yet PureBasic still supports Windows 9x, NT, ME, and 2000 which scarcely anyone would use nowadays?

I've just (independently) discovered this problem for myself today, and became very worried that the creators of my favourite programming language might've gone out of business

I came here today for the first time in ages, discovered this thread, and am glad all is well

I concur

Sorry, I just couldn't wait for April fool's day

Thanks guys, I'll see what I can come with using those 2 examples as a starting point

I'd like to be able to make a simple application where a large picture is able to be scrolled in a window, with buttons on one side for changing the picture that appears in the scrolling window. I think I understand button gadgets well enough to be able to send instructions to change picture, but I ...

Could it be used to calculate extremely long floating point numbers for the purposes of generating mandelbrot fractals with the ability to zoom in further with super precision, greater than what usual floating point numbers would allow?

Hi Lykaestria,

OGRE already has its own command sets.
Do you mean that you want Fred to include some extra command set that works similar to those of Blitz3D or DreamMotion3D? (LoadAnimMesh? FindChild? etc.)

Could you give some examples what kind of these commands you think are essential for ...

The demo of PureGDK is the upgrade path and requires DarkBasic Professional 6.7. It's not compatible with the trial version which is version 6.2.

The easiest for beginners would be to use PB's build in 3d engine (which is a wrapper for Ogre).

You can try experimenting with the Ogre engine but I ...

Let me have a free copy for evaluation purposes and if I like it I'll spread the word about how good it is

Personally i hope more people will start using the Ogre Engine to get it improved. I can test stuff there but trying to focus still on Irrlicht and also trying to get a few things with Leadwerks working.
Have you made/making a wrapper for Irrlicht? I've had a look at the commands it used and ...

Well in terms of adding things to OGRE I would merely like to see it be able to do everything that blitz3D could do, and have the same sorta 3D command set that Blitz3D and DreamMotion3D have. I loved Blitz3D but it is so dated now, and it doesn't do all the fancy gadgets that PureBasic is able to do.

I thought I did say

How do I integrate a graphics window from Dreamotion3D with a regular window in PB so that I can have a Dreamotion3D in the top left taking up most of the screen, but also have PB gadgets to the right and below?
And is Dreamotion3D sufficiently stable to use until more Ogre commands are added to PB?
