I have never heard of it, do you have a link, what is it based off of?

Sam Fisher vs Solid Snake - August 8, 2003 03:16 AM (GMT)
Blitz , note this website may not have free demoes anymore and it is in basic, just learn basic, it should come with games and stuff, and i have src code so ask me for it if u need it
\

the demo makes it so only the files can be compiled on your own comp, you cannot sell it or move it to other comps unless you buy the full version

ok, it is extremely useful for 2d games, i believe 3d games are possible i just havent tried yet

For 3D games you need Blitz 3D, it'S Blitz Basic with additional 3D commands.

Hello forum,
I am a former jock, but born again nerd, and right now busy Forrest Gumping my way through blitz basic 2d. Anyway, I do posess the hackers spirit, as I have been busy debugging my program (unsuccessfully) for 18 consecutive hours (minus bathroom, eating, and porn time) and after 27 glasses of green tea I must admit that I need help. What I would really love, is for someone to tell me how to unf**k myself and why it isnt working, but the unf**king part would be much appriciated.
Below is a copy of my code, and thanks in advance everyone for the assistance.

AppTitle "conversion"

Print "This program was designed 171003 at 0739hrs by"
Print "---------------"
Print "If it functions correctly, he will be vaguely proud of it."
Print "End of introduction, please press a key."
WaitKey
.alpha
Print "1. Farenheit to celsius"
Print "2. Celsius to farenheit"
Print "3. Pounds to Kilograms"
Print "4. Kilograms to pounds"
Bravo = Input$("Which function would you like to use?")

If (Bravo = 1) Then Goto fvalue
If (Bravo = 2) Then Goto ctof
If (Bravo = 3) Then Goto ptok
If (Bravo = 4) Then Goto ktop

Print "Invalid Selection!"
Goto alpha

.fvalue
;Function ConvertFtoC(fvalue)
;Return 5.0/9.0 * (fvalue - 32)
;End Function
Fvalue = Input$("What is the Farenheit temperature?")
cvalue = ConvertFtoC (fvalue)
Print fvalue + " Farenheit = " + cvalue + " Celsius."
WaitKey
Goto question

.ctof
;Function Ctof(cval)
;Return (cval + 32) / 5.0*9.0
;End Function
Ctof = Input$("What is the Celsius temperature?")
Fval = Ctof (cval)
Print cval + " Celsius = " + fval + " Farenheit."
WaitKey
Goto question

.ptok
;Function ConvertPtoK(Kvalue)
;Return pvalue * 2.20
;End Function
ptok = Input$("What is the weight in pounds?")
Kvalue = ConvertPtok(Kvalue)
Print ptok + " Pounds = " + Kvalue + " Kilograms."
WaitKey
Goto question

.ktop
;Function ktop(pval)
;Return kvalue / 2.20
;End Function
Ktop = Input$("What is the weight in kilograms?")
Pval = Ktop(pval)
Print ktop + " Kilograms = " + pval + " Pounds."
WaitKey
Goto question

Function ConvertFtoC(fvalue)
Return 5.0/9.0 * (fvalue - 32)
End Function

Function Ctof(cval)
Return (cval + 32) / 5.0*9.0
End Function

Function ConvertPtoK(Kvalue)
Return pvalue * 2.20
End Function

Function ktop(pval)
Return kvalue / 2.20
End Function


.question
Print "Please enter '1' for yes, '2' for no."
Charlie = Input$("Would you like to convert more values?")
If (Charlie = 2) Then Goto Endo
If (Charlie = 1) Then Goto label
Print "Please type either '1' or '2'."
Goto question
.Endo
End


(also I had to change the input string after ".question" label to numerals because i could not get it to work as words, any advice on this would be hella cool, as well)

Jossh - October 22, 2003 10:32 PM (GMT)
The language its self if very easy to learn i've only had it for like 1 week and already completed a Space Ivaderz game, and a hmtl editor with text highlighting.

Bob - October 23, 2003 06:21 PM (GMT)
cool maybe
i should learn it

MonkeyMan - October 23, 2003 08:07 PM (GMT)
I looked at the demo... in my opinion I dont like it too much... I still have to look at the code in more detail but it reminds me so much of Ti programming :D

Dark Basic Pro is even better and more simple .
