HI,A con Verter? Are you kidding? That would be impossible. For one thing, tins are done totally differently in different languages. Take, for example, something like VB6 vs. a c-style language. Generally speaking, a C-style language has a main function that executes, and then the program terminates, so you end up making a oop to keep things from shutting down and just run your checks over and over again. VB6 is an event driven planguage, so the program is always idol and waiting for some kind of event, which is done through subproceedures. So Shaun, you have obviously not done a lot of looking as far as programming languages are concerned.

Even being a beginning programmer, I can tell you that succh a program is almost if not entirely impossible to right, just due to the massive amount of subtle differences between programming languages. ----- Original Message ----- From: shaun everiss <sm.ever...@gmail.com To: Gamers Discussion list <gamers@audyssey.org Date sent: Tue, 13 Dec 2011 22:07:11 +1300 Subject: Re: [Audyssey] plans for an updated Lone Wolf Yeah its all about cash. If only there was some sort of converter to convert things to what they need to be at, ie vb6 to vb.net, etc. That would make it much easier and there probably is, we just have to look for it. Or make it, it doesn't look like it would be that hard to do. At 03:40 p.m. 12/12/2011 +0200, you wrote: Hi dark. Microsoft only invests development time where they stand to gain or lose money. For the most part, even dropping support for vb was based on the fact that they were forcing developers to switch to vb.net so they could sell them a new set of development tools. The basic programming syntax stayed the same, but they changed the developement libraries to not be the same as those used with vb6. They did improve the software with vb.net, but vb6 wasn't making them enough money to justify fixing the security wholes and bugs for vb6. Assisting developers or users of code to run a 10 year old program does not gain them much sales, so they will invest the development time somewhere else. This is also part of what drives the changes to the user interfaces. They tell their customers "see it looks different, so it is new" where as most of the code is reused over windows versions. I agree with those who said that for innovation to happen we need change, but change does not always indicate something better.

As I said, I just would like microsoft to acknolidge this, perhaps with a compatibility pack option that could be downloaded for those who needed it. Beware the grue!
