Re: Is learning visual basic worth it?

Re: Is learning visual basic worth it? Just curious, all of those libraries provide accessible GUIs? I mean, controls working well using a screen reader. Years ago, I tried some of them (though I cannot remember whitch ones) and usually I was not able to interact properly with the reated

Re: Is learning visual basic worth it? For most games you don't really want a program to use Window's API.PyQt uses Qt which uses IAccessible2WXPython uses WXWidgets which uses native APIs on each OS (NVDA uses WXPython for example)The others are just OpenGL contexts.I wish there was some

Re: Is learning visual basic worth it? post code please. if it is possible, please create a basic menu, and a start game option that lets you walk around on a little map. I don't doubt you I'm just curious as well as to what it is capable of. Because of the form designer I was thinking

Re: Is learning visual basic worth it? Hi there,Sorry, Steve, but as I said, visual basic is totally new for me and I have no time to code examples (anyway, my examples will not be more useful, my visual basic knowledge is near to 0).THis is what I tried yesterday:1. CCreates and shows

Re: Is learning visual basic worth it? RSGames is written in python. but thats not a very good example of a good game. its very laggy. but that shouldnt turn you off from python. python shouldnt be that laggy and no one can figure out why their game lags so much. other games are soundRTS

Re: Is learning visual basic worth it? Hello,Learn Python The Hard Way might not be right for you. It assumes that the reader is a beginner, not only to Python, but to programming as well. While this may be right for some, I think, as steve has programmed before, its probably not entirely

Re: Is learning visual basic worth it? The only problem Id have with learning python is that Ive been told that there is only 1 library for python games, and that library has many bugs, but if that was wrong Id be happy to learn that one. but thanks for the insite on vb.net and games. if I

Re: Is learning visual basic worth it?

Re: Is learning visual basic worth it? Severestormsteve1, a lot depends on what version of Visual Basic you mean. Do you mean VB 6 and earlier, or do you mean Visual Basic .NET?If you are talking about Visual Basic 6 and prior versions Id say no. Although, it was used for games in the past

Re: Is learning visual basic worth it? [[wow]]! I didnt really know that. And theres an audio game library for python itself? Thats cool. But I was referring to vb.net... I was just curious because it seems as though Aprone uses that for his games but maybe Im wrong about that. Also

Re: Is learning visual basic worth it?

Re: Is learning visual basic worth it? Hi Severestormsteve.Yes with python you can delete and add arrays at anytime. I dont know why purebasic wont let you do this.After you mentioned it I looked into vbs its very limited. Somebody was talking to me about autoit the other day and I

Re: Is learning visual basic worth it?

Re: Is learning visual basic worth it? Yeah Guitarman I did research on vbs and outright new it wouldnt be good for audio games, even before research was done. That language is speciffically meant for scripting tasks for your computer to perform, I.E. when you are away and unable to act

Re: Is learning visual basic worth it?

Re: Is learning visual basic worth it? Hi Severestormsteve. Visual basic isnt perfect but its pretty good. You have a lot more freedom then you do in other basic languages. I say since you already have programming experience try something like python, c#, java. One thing I would recommend
