Maybe I should say I'm back but I'm not exactly programming in Basic4Gl as I'm using Direct X and Some books that I bought. I'm learning how to create a modular plugin engine using DLL's. Should have the finished engine from the book done in a couple of weeks/months depending on my motivation. Since the book is a bit outdated I will try and recreate the engine using Direct X 11. So that will be complete by the end of the year. However I will use the engine in the book to create a FPS level that uses AI and path finding. This is going to be a big year for me and I hope I can complete these 3 advanced tasks. Only 1 is helped with the book the other 2 will be done using my knowledge. - Wayne Rayner

LMAO, I'm not exactly back as I've never been away, I check in on the forum several times a day. But I thought I'd use this thread to tell everyone that I've got a new computer. At the beginning of the week a local store was having a sale on netbook computers so I brought one. I've got it connected just like my old computer was, to an external monitor, keyboard & mouse, so it's a bit like a Desktop. The graphics card is integrated but it has got a Pixel Shader so I can finally play Battlefield Heroes, lol.

Wow why is everyone having such a crap year. I think my life just started to get good, and so far everything has worked my way. Everyone else seems to be having a lot of problems. I hope everyone can have a extraordinary end to 2011 because it will be fair for those people who have had bad luck so far. I have had one thing go wrong but in a way it went right as well. I lost my license for speeding but, at least my car never got impounded. I have 5 days and I get my license back so I'm happy I'm saving up for a 50 k 2 years to buy me a decent car for when I get my Open Drivers license. Something like a 300C or maybe if I'm lucky a nissan 370Z. We will find out when I'm 20 years old

I'm still around but rarely post, my life is too busy, I do no programming in my spare time what so ever.
Bad bad times...
[edit]@wayne: The important thing is you've learnt your lesson. Dunno how it works in Australia but in the UK, you get banned and you'll struggle to get insured for the next 5 years.

I had to go to court about it, I did 50 hours communtiy Service. I was picking rubish and cleaning grafity from parks and places that kids go to.
I have learnt my lesson Insurance is a bitch since the car is my parents it doesn't matter. I'm not allowed to drive my dads car anymore and if I want to drive it is going to mean I buy my own
It sucks and I will never speed again on public roads

Well I'm still around, check it every night to see if there's anything new. I'm just at the point in my life where I'm rarely getting anytime time to myself, and when I do I've got other hobbys. I will pick up programming more again soon, just few things in life I need sort out - Nicky

I'm still around, never really left, but didn't have anything to post about or respond to. But traffic seems to have spiked quite a bit recently. Some of you guys seem to have had it really rough.

Indeed, im hoping some stuff will really inprove traffic, so any programs or anyithing you guys can think of, and ways of getting traffic going would be great, we should advertise basic4gl, its a great language thats highly extensible and should be improved -darkjester
