hey all, i'm new here and was wondering a couple things about dark basic.

1. does dark basic allow full worlds like world of warcraft or runescape?

2. are the graphics good if alot of time is put into a game? if possible could you compare it to a game? (example. it has similar graphics to guildwars, WoW, ect.)

3. is there alot of difference between pro and regular as far as graphics and language goes?

that about sums up my questions.

1. Yes, with a lot of experience, time, effort, and servers.

2. The graphics are good if a lot of time is put into the graphics . Then if a lot of time is put into the game code regarding the graphics, the game can look good. The graphics are only limited by what you put into it, so there is no real comparison.

3. Yes and no. I haven't used pro much, but there are differences. If you just want a hobby language and don't want to spend a lot of money, go classic, it is still powerful. Pro is more powerful and versatile, but it depends on what you need it for.

From your questions, I assume you plan on making an mmorpg on par with wow, guild wars, and runescape. Not to burst your bubble, but seriously, DON'T for your first project. You won't be able to do it, no one can. Start simple. I am sure that others will join in to reiterate this point.

Agreed.

1. If you mean does it allow for gigantic levels, then absolutely.

2. Here are some pretty nice graphics in Dark Basic Classic: Soul Hunter.

3. Well, DBPro can use shaders which can really enhance graphics a lot... Here's a cool shader thing I found in the Screenshot Gallery: Deferred Shading Revisited. There's a YouTube video of it attached.

Just go to the screenshot gallery and WIP (Work in Progress) boards and see what people are up to. Just remember that graphics are only as good as you can make them.

Hi,

I am trying DBP trial. At the lesson 5 with 4 lines we create rotate a cube in size 100.
When I run this program the cube is full screen and it rotates.

And if I choice a size 10 or 50, the result is same : cube is full screen.

Where is the problem ?

I work with Vista and directX 9c.
