3D gfx cards, store their offset and data at adress above 4gb, meaning QB can't access it, and even if you could, there's no way you could make it work without having the gfx card specs. Whivh are near impossible to get as the manufacturesrs guard them like treasures. Making a wrapper, that uses DX ...

Don't disscontinue them, keep them going, even if you only get a few entries. The longer it exists the more people will hear about it. And the more prestigeous it will become to win it. As for me, I simply don't have the time and will to get into a competition at the moment. And it really isn't 4lin...

The only limit is memory, and with a few tricks you can even get around that. I'm using maps of 5120x3200 in MOo without problems. First of all, as long as you stay under 64kb (a integer array of 32000) you should be fine. To get a larger map, make sure you change the dim statement, and the number o...

You need to find a font routine for the font you're using, in your case, EASYFONT. It's a sub, that works like print, but with the font instead. It usually looks something like: font txt$, x, y, col I think the font sub is included with the font creation program, try looking in the archive. If it's ...

Like: 3 -> 3.000? 4.5 -> 4.500? 4.123456 -> 4.123 Input "Enter num", num# temp% = num#*1000 num# = temp%/1000 Print "3 decimal places:";num# Theory: Multiply by 1000, and round it, divide by 1000 to get 3 decimal points back. If you want 2 decimal places, change 1000 to 100, for ...

You make a MIDI Slave TSR program, that sends the correct data to the soundcard. Most soundcards have MIDI built in. Then you load that program, and call it via interrupts from QB. In short: Learn more programming =) (Not meaning to sound rude or anything. Sorry if I did. But sound is one of the har...

Well... in theory... you could use some math, and calculate the pitch of two or more accords added togheter. Playing a sound that we (humans) would hear as a chord. But it would prolly take loads of work. And the math would probably be too slow to perform in realtime to make anything good. I am, Use...

Try searching for Connect4, a QB game, that is playable over the internet.

Take note though, internet, and multiplayer (non hotseat kind) is very hard to program.

Sound, highres and multiplayer


The top three hard parts to make in QB (IMO)

Wohoo!



Heh, the mag came out 54minutes after i went to bed.. damn..


Very nice issue, me like =)

It is now 15 minutes past midnight (GMT+1), and it's the 16th of september

Hehe, for the next issue, make it an hour precise deadline =P


This is like.. the 100th time I'm checking this forum today (and site)...



Still no QB Express... well, actually, I found it, but didn't read it, it would be no fun...

Waiting for the real release =)

"Where be ye, QB Express, where be ye... The sorrow that fill my hearth whilst thee is missing, bring back the light of joy to me once again"

*still barricaded*




"Soo tired... must not... sleep... must wait... for mag...."

If it's only twice as good as the first one then It'll be awesome...

Heh, When tomorrow will the mag be uploaded.

Lol...



*Barricades self infront of computer waiting for mag to appear*

Heh, Can't wait to get my hands on QB Exp#2

People should start adding their own screenshot routines. And stop the whole: "It runs fine on my computer, so it must work on everybodys" thing. EMS being one. And the: "I have a delay, its a for/next, 0 to 9328742983749234 it only takes 0.1 seconds on my p5,77ghz 9tb ram" .... ...

Hmm, give me editing rights and I'll add you then

Nice...

Tut's are good...


Have you managed to create some kind of system for them yet? So they're easier to navigate?

Goodbye, don't know when or If I'll be back. Take care you all.
