Hey I was browsing Amazon.com and I noticed this book and it has 3D Gamemaker on it? Which version is it and will I be able to upgrade? I'm thinking of getting this for my little brother's birthday. Thank you for your help.

Pentium4 3GHZ, 512MB DualChannel RAM, 256MB ATI Radeon 9800XT, SoundBlaster Audigy2, 120 GB HD.

You sure it's not just the trial version? I don't think we've given the full version away with any book, ever.

I believe he means the CD holds Media and Examples that are referenced inside the book. The "Beginners Guide to DarkBASIC" page says that the book comes with a CD, so I'm guessing he means that one.

Errr, ignore my post, that was mean to be in reference to this thread (where the author is missing a CD that comes with a different book):

http://forum.thegamecreators.com/?m=forum_view&t=34430&b=2

Lol, 2 very similar threads, I should have looked at what I was replying to.
