Jeesh! Sorry if I po'ed Dabooda. Didn't mean it that way. Just thought you guys would communicate better/quickly with your own forum or instant messaging thingy. sorry!!! I agree though, while there are tons of engines out now, why not pay $10.00 for a domain name, and place it on one of the free sites. You can't get much cheaper than that, and forums are free as well. ;)

Remember, DaBooda, bay bashing the engine, ur not only throwing away ALL UR WORK!, but also the work of those who submitted stuff to it and the work of those who were WORKING on stuff to submit! PLEASE DONT DO THIS TO US! I'm sure SOMEBODY will be willing to take ur project and put it on their server!
Don't give up like this...it makes VB look bad. It makes us ALL look bad. It especially makes U look bad. Please...think about this, don't waste all that work! |

ok...ok... I am sorry and I apologize, but as of soon, I will have no power at all for awhile, so if anybody with the engine downloaded and the help file also... could they move it to a server and keep at least v1.3 alive. I was feeling depressed when I did this, and to my suprise they haven't cut me off yet, but soon I feel. I will have power within the next 2 weeks and will begin work on the engine again, and I will find a way to upload the info onto a server or to somebody.... I just don't know at the moment... and I am sorry for the brash judgement, but I was feeling rather bombarded by real life at the time... and the thought of killing this engine, (being the first thing I ever completed in vb, or any other language, I mean real project that is) I just can't let it die, and the people working on this, I will have let down... so It will REMAIN ALIVE, just don't know how at the moment...
DaBooda out...Temporarily(I hope)
P.S. If any body could post something of this engine, please, I will be eternally grateful..

Great! At least we know u aren't giving up on a great project. Yes, and I can relate to how my real life effects the way I look at my programming projects. When I'm angry that I am unable to work on something, I often just feel like trashing it, and I HAVE before. I regretted it the next morning.
Thanks. And may God be merciful to u and help u get ur life back together. |

Perhaps Dabooda was hoping more would flock to his engine. If he just codes the thing to "his" liking and not worry about who uses it or contributes to it, it would be a more worth while project to him. I've seen something like 8 engines out the past few months for Vb, and if you visit their forums, no engine is taking the lead. (And they are all VERY similar.) VB'rs like to to code things themselves, I don't see any particular engine becoming popular or a standard. The SoundCraft engine I use only has a few users. :)

| But we know that a LOT of people here like this engine. If I wasn't creating a 3D game, certainly I would use it. |
Whatever. Who knows... |

ditto, VBBR...
Anyway, I highly doubt daBooda cares too much about how many people are using his engine. He seemed perfectly content (even surprised) by the support and interest in his engine. I personally think it is one of the better (and cheaper) 2D engines available (for any lanuage). He is putting alot of work into it, and it is continually getting better and more powerful. All I can say is "Good job" and I hope we see you again once you get back on your feet. |

DaBrooda, I'm very glad to hear that you haven't abandoned the engine, and it seems that I'm not the only one :P
I got pretty surprised by your post d. 24., because I thought the network class wouldn't be included until version 1.5. Anyway, I'm almost finished with the networking portion of the engine, and I'm going to write a short tutorial + demostration of the DBNetwork class. But it dosn't look like version 1.4 is going to be unloaded any time soon if you don't have any power or internet... if that is the case, you won't see this post anyway. If you do have access to internet then please upload version 1.4 - for web storage contact Scorpion_Blood for instance - and respond to posts here.
I wish you the best of luck with everything, and we hope to see you here again soon :)

Wow, Scorpion_Blood that is really looking neat! The logo is very retro, almost looks like a GameBoy game case :)
The website is pretty small in my 1600x1200 resolution, but the layout is great.
Good luck with it.
PS. You can use the cashed version of the old site to grab the text for the new site. Well, at least with Internet Explorer. Oh well, back to the DBNetwork class :P |
