PureBasic Forums - English

It's all well and good to put information on the website to advertise PB's 10 year achievements, but how would they know about the site in the first place :?: I believe business should be advertised via word of mouth not marketing *bling*, if you have a really good product it will sell itself anyway ...

Alas, I am not a student, but I thought it would be a good opportunity for others. Anyway, I'm sticking to PB lol

Hi guys,

Most of you have probably heard of this, as I'm always one of the last to know LOL, but if your student, you have the
opportunity to download Microsoft software for free (apparantly).

have fun!

Many thanks tmyke,

I've been looking for something like this for ages good work!

Many Thanks Kale,

I love books like this, easy to read, clear and concise, just like the sams teach yourself books.

I get the same as everyone else, you need to use lighter colours as it is way to heavy on the eyes.

Another thing I noticed, you need a facebook account to view the pictures, could you make those images public as not everyone has facebook or wants to sign up for an account.

Has anyone used this engine before? I've been playing around with the examples - takes a little while to get used to it, it looks pretty good.

btw, I don't work for the company

Hi Richard,

Sorry to 'hijack' your thread :oops:

The work you do looks very interesting, how would I go about getting into the industry, do you know of any courses that would be a great asset to get started?

With the numerous courses around it's hard to choose what to sign up for, if you could ...

to be honest, saving a file as a blob isn't really worth the effort, you may aswell save the file in a folder with a reference to the file saved into a table, saves on database load and works alot quicker.

I don't really know enough about PureBasic yet, but I'm sure there is a way to manipulate the image using memory blocks, I might look further into this problem unless someone knows how to code this.

Haha :p

The way the world is today, if this was true it wouldn't have surprised me!

Hi

I've downloaded and had a play with it, all I can say is that's some fine work you have there best to view it in fullscreen as it runs alot better.

I wish you the best of luck with it

I decided to 'take the plunge' and purchase PureBasic, I really like the fact it creates small and compact exes - which is one of the main features I was looking for and I'm impressed with all the features it has to offer especially supporting OpenGL natively :)

Many thanks for everyones reply, I'm ...

Hi everyone :)

I'm interested in buying PureBasic for application development and game development, but before I do take the plunge, I would like to know if I will be making a good investment.
