Hi Jim,
I'm glad to hear you like BGT. As a matter of fact, I also prefer procedural
programming though I'm not opposed to making and using the ocasional class
here and there. I grew up with procedural and so that is what I'm used to,
happy with, and what I work in for the majority of the time. I don't dislike
Vb 6 as a language, I just think it'd be inadvisable for new programmers to
learn it considering its age and development status
Kind regards,
Philip Bennefall

Hi Philip,
Yes thanks, I've just been programming in procedural type Basic for so
long that I don't see myself learning a whole new type of programming.
And I must say that I think that your BGT is a very good thing. I know
that lots of people have ideas and want to create games. But learning a
whole programming language such as C++ can be very daunting. I am looking
forward to seeing what all games are created with BGT.
TGIF and BFN

Hi Jim,
Of course, we are all talking personal opinions here and I fully respect
yours. However I personally feel that when a product is as old as Vb6 and
official support has been dropped for quite some time, it would be
inadviseable for new programmers to learn it only to discover that they
have learnt technology that was at its peak 10 years ago. If, like
yourself, one has been using the tool for a considerable time then that is
a different story. If you feel that you are comfortable with Vb 6 and want
to continue using it despite support having been dropped then that, of
course, is entirely your choice. In any case I shall certainly continue to
play your games from time to time.
Kind regards,
Philip Bennefall
Jim
If computers are our tool, how come we have to take classes to learn to do
it ITS way?
