I have tried it on two other systems, one 7 and one 7 SP1 and both do the same on the tank and third person demos. One has an ATI and the other has a NVIDIA graphics card, DX9 installed, latest graphics drivers, etc.

hmmm, seems zxtunes has submitted what it look like, and using 64bit, I don't have that to try out, later I will try on my other laptop with Vista, with better graphics card and see if displays ok on that.

If you have Macros and parameters with default values. Spacings are not translated correctly.
Those that are commented work correctly.

Code: Select all

Macro CELL_A(WHICH = 1)
;Macro CELL_A(WHICH=1)
  CELL_A#WHICH = Random(100)
EndMacro

Macro CELL_B(WHICH = 1)
;Macro CELL_B(WHICH=1)
  CELL_B#WHICH = Random(100)
EndMacro

Macro CELL_ALL(WHICH = 1)
;Macro CELL_ALL(WHICH=1)
  CELL_A(WHICH)
  CELL_B(WHICH)
EndMacro

CELL_ALL()
CELL_ALL(2)

Debug CELL_A1
Debug CELL_B1
Debug CELL_A2
Debug CELL_B2

@akee
The parameters are characters rather than numbers and so spaces to the right of the equals sign get included. This can be useful.

Just like the crew of a submarine, Fred and Freak have gone "silent and deep" again ...
Anyone know what they're working on specifically? Some new killer applications?
I mean, what could be more important/interesting than working on PB???
Besides of course earning a living ...
:wink:

I wonder when they plan to ship PB 4.60. I mean, how long can it take to get the thing shipshape
and out of the door?

Two more months? :)

My opinion is for EUR79, Purebasic is the best development tool I have in my box, straight forward, no nonsense.
And if I have to wait a little longer... I guess I must.

If it takes 2 years to release... I couldn't care less. I am happy to wait until they decide it is ready, rather than be pestered into releasing it too early.

101% agreed! Quality and Robustness is everything. I'm using PB4.51 for Windows and it is excellent as-is. PB4.60 looks very nice indeed, well worth waiting for.

I don't think folks are pestering them to release it before it is ready. Given the speed with which Fred and Freak can crank out the bug fixes when they're focused on PB, folks are pestering them to just "work" on PB period. I think we were all spoiled by the PB development speed when Fred was able to devote full-time to PB.

Taking into consideration current global economic situation we're lucky that there are any updates at all no matter how long it takes to release them.
