Always remember one thing, there are the online tutorials and the forums here to help you out, as well as a few example programs included with DB. If its kind of expensive, and you can relatively find the same information elsewhere for free, its a waste of cash.
Quote: "P.S. With DarkMATTER and darkBASIC can you make PS2 quality graphics?
"
First of all, DarkMATTER is a model pack, not an add on or anything (though it does come with the DB enhancement pack). The models are excellent, but I wouldnt say PS2 quality. Most of the PS2 game models would make our computers slow down to a crawl (curse those custom graphic chips). But there are a few games being worked on as we speak that would appear to be PS2 quality (nANo, Eternal Destiny, Dwarven Tales, etc).
