Programming

[Dave Ferguson]

I did various bits of programing many aeons ago and a couple of years ago was looking to get back into it for recreational purposes. C++ etc etc were just too expensive so I ended up buying Blitz Plus for just over 30 pounds. It is a 2D compiled basic with C++ bits added, easy to get windows stuff up and running and a online community with tutorials and lots of examples. I was especially attracted by the operational level Kursk game. Not much to show for it though as I got tied up in game testing and recently have been playing with macro programming. Autohotkey is free and you can even do simple programming in it!

@Dave Ferguson : DO yoo still visit the Blitz Forums? Blitz Max is the latest from language, its 2SD only atm with Mark Sibly working on the 3D module. Various wrappers have been written for 3Impact, Ogre and Ode among others.
