Re: Announcement from Blastbay Studios I agree with Draq (post 39) in that ease of use was one of BGT's main selling points and intentions from the beginning. Of course this approach had its fair share of drawbacks as the community had witnessed. Well, nobody could actually have f

Re: Announcement from Blastbay Studios

Re: Announcement from Blastbay Studios From what I understand about all the clones, and someone can correct me if I'm mistaken, the problem was mostly people sharing source code with the wrong individuals. I've heard something about BGT being easy to decompile, but I know not

Re: Announcement from Blastbay Studios

Re: Announcement from Blastbay Studios For a lot of us, one positive side of this is the fact that with BGT no longer being available from blastbay.com, and if what people say about BGT eventually not being supported at all, we could hopefully reduce and or eliminate the amount of clones

Re: Announcement from Blastbay Studios Hi Philip,Much respect to you, and while I never developed in BGT, I loved the memories it created. I think it's also for the best, and I've always enjoyed your work over the years. I look forward to your future projects.
