Just stopped in , got a notice in my e-mail about a new post,...since it so close to Christmas, decided to wish every one a Merry Christmas, and Happy new year.

Well, I was in Oklahoma awhile, now I am Mexico again, been real busy, I still get notices,when someone posts here, so I check to see what was posted. I will get back later, still real busy,and do not have much time, In relation to any coding, have not done anything for a long time now, but the inte...

Why do you say "Galleons Ghost ?.//

I'm looking into making .htaccess rewrite rules which will parse incoming links for the old forum and automatically redirect to the proper URL on the new forum. I'll play around with it and see what I can figure out. That way, you won't need to update any of the old links. It appears you did it, I ...

Actually, it has worked out ok, this was kind of a long time ago, a few months now, and I do wear ear plugs, also, but the vibrations are so strong, I still feel it,.. The first time I called the police, they did come, but these guys apparently also use a scanner, they shut the noise down, before th...

IN a few months, it will be a "teenager",...sweet 13,...

Maybe you guys can help me with this,it was the start of a menu,: REM DEFINT A-Z MenuBackground& = _LOADIMAGE("smallroad.png", 32) MainMenu& = _NEWIMAGE(640, 480, 32) SCREEN MainMenu& '--------------------- FONT --------------------------------------- TTfont$ = "timesbd&qu...

Well thank you, I like how it looks, with this theme, but that may be interesting to try some of the others, for changes, NEAT on the text colors but I don't like that color Maybe this one is better,blue is my favorite. Ok well back to just regular black and white, :D I do have links to this site on...

I still have Dos (free dos) and qbasic, on one computer, a older one, in fact I was using just the other day. But yea , to be honest, mostly I use qb64, however most of the code I use is more qbasic, then the newer commands, that have been added to qb64,... Is there anybody, here, who still use qbas...

Some of you all ready know this, but for those that don't know about it,.. "The Bob", upgraded, or updated his qbasic graphics tutorial with qb64 so that it can run on windows, "QBG.zip" It is available on dropbox. : https://www.dropbox.com/s/1iwpcufomow8wip/qbg.zip This is a gre...

I saw that too, at net54, Qbasics did compile, and it runs, but only up to where it shows the index, when I select which chapter, it stops there,.. however, each chapter dose run fine, if compiled individually,....So that is pretty good,..once I compile each one, it will be easy, because then they a...

You don't need to use the batch files. Those are just for Qbasic. Try compiling them in Linux with QB64. Does CHAIN work in Linux? Ok, yea that dose work, just compiling them 1 at a time, it did compile the qbasic. too but on that all I get is a black screen, but if I compile a chapter it runs fine.

Does CHAIN work in Linux?

I am not sure on that

Ok, thanks, I downloaded it,..to see, however, with qb64 for linux, I ran into some problems, because Linux dose not use batch files,...I am going to try to see if I can figure out, or if anyone experienced with qb64 for Linux an help me figure out how we can get it working with qb64 for linux, sinc...

We could use an update in participation around here! All I do anymore is control spammers.

Is the link to QBASICS.zip in your signature, the converted version, for qb64 ? that would be a good announcement, or update

Well at least I know my e-mail notifications is working, I got a e-mail notice that someone had posted here. Every thing dose work fine, I just can't think of anything to say lately, and to be honest have not been doing anything with any coding either,...It would be nice if there was more participat...

I tried "GameMaker" a long time ago,..but it is not the same as actually writing your own code,
I am be more interested in, doing it with qbasic,and qb64,...and now with qb64 gl, a 3d version could be done,...

OK, thanks, I did that, too, I copied them to my windowsXP partition, and they do work now, apparently I need a different version for linux, the game engine "love", was available, for linux, in my "package installer",.. I have always wanted to do a PacMan clone with qb64, but don...

I just noticed too, now when I go back to the site, I no longer get any warning,.. I bet if I had selected "yes", I would have gotten the "form", to register, and submit my e-mail address,..so then I would start getting the news letters,..But anyway, the fact that they do not try...

This looked pretty interesting, I downloaded some of it, but still have not figured out how to get it installed and running, Pac Man is a favorite , in fact that is why I keep DOS, I have a real nice old Dos version of pacman, it runs ok with dos box, but it is even better, with "real" DOS...
