PureBasic Forums - English

Trying to compile a simple 3D program in Linux gave me this error: InitEngine3D() is not a function (or not available in demo version), an array, or a linked list
Is it just that there isn't this support in the demo version? Or has 3D support not been built into the Linux version at all yet? In the manual page for this command it says that it's supported by both Windows and Linux. This is fairly crucial in my decision whether to purchase PureBasic yet or to hang back and wait until there's better 3D support in Linux.

Thanks!

the current version doesn't have 3D support, but the current beta has it and it seems to work good. So may be you will want to wait a bit until the official release occurs (less than 1 month now)

Thanks a lot for the prompt reply. If the time scale is as short as 1 month, I may go ahead and buy it before then, since I have some other purposes to put your great language to as well .

Thanks!

Can those of us which purchased PureBasic from this site download the Linux beta?

Thanks,
Phil

The Beta is not yet ready to be released and tested, Fred is still adding functions/commands.
