Pete's QBASIC Site

Um..... bye

Awesome!

I'm glad there are some other sites still updating besides mine and QBasic News... updates have been slow-going in the QB community lately.

I was recently sent an archive of the old QB Informer articles. This wasn't exactly a magazine, but more of a period QB humor article series. It was run by Gopus, as well as a few others, and some of the articles are pretty humorous. Anyhow, once I sort through the collection and index all the artic...

There's a demo of an older version (2.0 I think) in both the Downloads and Reviews section.

Elsewhere on the Internet, you can find newer releases. I would check QBRPGs.

If you need more help, check the tutorials section. I have found several tutorials you might find useful, but there are many more (over 300 total).

Today, 19day sent me the one and only issue of Razor Diskmag. I have posted the original diskmag version, and then I converted it to an HTML version so that it's easier to view in your browser. You can view it in the Zines section. Now, all of the top-priority QB magazines have been found except for...

Chances are your school gave you the freeware version of QB, QBasic version 1.1. This is a stripped down version of QuickBasic that is unable to make executable programs. You will need to download another version of QuickBasic, such as v4.0, v4.5 or PDS v7.1. All of them are able to make stand-alone...

I finally got in contact with Danny Gump, and he so graciously gave me all the issues of VSNews!

There were five full issues, then one WIP issue that was never released. It's a very interesting read.

You can find the issues right here:

Thanks for sending that in!

I'll add it when I find the time...which may take a few weeks, or maybe a few hours. You never know.

The layout design is great also. Found nothing to nitpick with the colors and everything. Although the code and images from Rel's code of the blobs was out of the borders a little bit over here on Moz Firefox. Hmmm.... I developed this magazine in Firefox (then checked it in IE, Avant Browser, Oper...

Does anybody have any input?

(Winks don't help much, heheh.)

<p><strong>New QuickBasic Magazine in the Works!</strong> -- Posted by <a href="mailto:pberg1@ithaca.edu">Pete</a> on August 15, 2004<br> Since the only remaining QB magazines have ended as of late, I have decided to start a new QuickBasic magazine. <i>QB Cult Magazine</i> will be having i...

I'm trying to come up with a title for this new QB magazine that I'm coming out with. I was wondering if you guys can help? Do you have any ideas? I have brainstormed a whole bunch of title ideas, but I still don't know if I like any of them or not. Tell me what you think: Generic Titles: ----------...

No problem. Chances are QB.Scene 1 has been lost, since it wasn't included in the QB Times archive you got from...whoever you got it from....(Nightwolf or Jorden Chamid, I presume.)

When I get back, I'll send an email or two.

Thanks anyway!

Thanks for letting me know. It should work now.

I don't know what the deal is with that zip file... it worked fine on my hard drive, but whenever I uploaded it (as binary), it got corrupt. So I just extracted it and uploaded the .bas file. That's all that was in the archive anyway.

Hey Barok -- did you make any headway on QB.Scene #1?

That's quite a tough challenge! Online multiplayer games in QB are incredibly hard to make, and few have succeeded. James Robert Osborne (aka WisdomDude) and Marcade made the first online-playable QB game last year. It was a Connect 4 clone. You can find it here: http://wisdomdude.neozones.com/ Wisd...
