So I used my email to set up this account. I didn't come out with it because I like to have a laugh. --- End quote --- Are you 'aving a laugh? Is 'e 'aving a laugh? --- End quote --- Actually no. Christ how did you come up with that? Bravo :applaud: (A sitcom character in a sitcom - parodying old British sitcoms from the early 70s.) |

--- Quote from: Howard_Casto on July 12, 2013, 07:00:17 pm ---The US/Canada border is the longest between two countries, in terms of the biggest land border period, that's debatable....The problem is it's usually some weird ex-communist republic and they change their borders at the drop of the hat. Atm it's probably Kazakhstan..... NIIIIIICE! But ignoring the weird countries like that it's usually mother Russia... who used to claim most of these new republics. But it's extremely debatable... some countries have a border that's technically very long, but it's long because it goes all squiggly. --- End quote --- Its Politics.

Some of the tools I use cost hundreds and in some cases thousands of pounds. I wanted everyone to have an opportunity to take part :-\ --- End quote --- Visual Studio Express is free, it supports C#, VB.Net and C++ and is a lot less obscure and extremely well documented. But to get back on topic...what are you using to develop mamer? |

It puzzles me why it matters to you? as that was not the topic. --- Quote --- Visual Studio Express is free, it supports C#, VB.Net and C++ and is a lot less obscure and extremely well documented. --- End quote --- To a degree. Microsoft C++ isn't the same as 'Real World C++' , Microsoft anything is always very 'Microsoft-y' and anyone who knows what I mean knows what I mean. The point was to keep it simple. Most of the people interested in it had never programmed before. I am an experienced coder. I don't need to justify my methods to you or anyone else. In truth I found it difficult to bite size / simplify concepts and if you can do better then more power to your arm. If you can do a complete Front End tutorial with C++ or even the awful Microsoft abomination that is C# and do it in beginner friendly manner then I commend not only your skills but your tenacity. I use C++ currently but previously have used a multitude of languages- sometimes together. Everything from Microsoft Basic - 6502 Machine Code and Assembler to C. Mainly for games in the early 90s. Then C++ but I don't rule out anything even Dark Basic Pro if it has the command set to do what I want and on that front when looking about for a beginner friendly tool it was unbeatable in that respect-- Nice friendly IDE, examples a plenty. Full command help at a click of the f1 key. Instant compile and exe creation. I stared coding games in the late 80s. On the Specrum and C64 in Basic. I learnt assembler and Machine Code and I do not understand anyone being all snooty about the language or platform someone is using and I commend anyone on their efforts and end results. Programming is not easy in any language and I give someone a pat on the back for giving it a go. If someone codes a great game in DBP , C , C++ or Visual Basic even - which is possible I would say well done crack on. You might not know that DBP has full support for machine code and C++ itself. If anyones interested on the C++ debate. I recommend DevC++ [/size] --- End quote --- --- End quote --- |
