thanks for the correction tom. appologies if I got things wrong, i assumed it was a compatibility issue, not one to do with typically inaccessible developement tools for the Xna framework.
that makes much more sense now. If I could just please ask a couple of questions, 1: is there any chance the developement tools for Xna could be made accessible in the future? Either by someone modifying them, or by appropriate map files, scripts etc, ----- with the number of vi people working in computer science, it would seem sensible to me for Dolphin or freedom scientific or whoever to provide that sort of support for programs needed in development (of course microsoft might also produce something more accessible but i'm not exactly holding my breath). If there's some perfectly logical reason why this wouldn't be possible, ---- fair enough. then, I have one question out of symple curiosity. After talking to my friend with the Msc in computer science, i understood programming to involve writing the program code in something like notepad, give the file the correct extention name, bundnle it in a folder with whatever other files the program needed, then run the hole lot through a compiler. of course, my friend is a big java fan, so his thinking might be coloured by this. the point is, I assumed you did most of the actual programming by physically writing the code down in a text file. if this is the case, what do these developement tools actually do? I'm really sorry if this is a stupid question, what you said about inaccessible developement tools just made me wonder. Beware the Grue!
