[Solved]Dark GDK[Help]

[Shark23]

Hey everyone,

I was wondering if any of you had used the Dark GDK .NET program for creating games. Is it worth buying or better just to learn C++(which I will do regardless)?

[Invidus]

Wrong section? GDK is used in C++.

[NextGen1]

Ill allow it, GDK is worth it, and there is a GDK Vb template which is nice/ Have not used it but I have a copy of GDK.NET for Vb.net

[Invidus]

This is ,like GDK.Net C# template, but now for VisualBASIC.Net users.
This is an easy to use Clean template for coding your games or application.

I sincerely recommend that you don't Copy/Paste the following, instead download the whole package. See end of article.

After you've download it, extract it to somehwere
Than run visual BASIC 2008 express and loadup the project-solution file , which is in the extracted map.

You can start you coding right away!
And to make this a Template in Visual BASIC Express everytime you want to code a VB-Application, do the following:

1 - Go to ' File '
2 - Click on 'Export Template'
3 - Click 'Next'
4 - Than Click on 'Finish'
Now everytime whenever you want to code a GDK.Net project you now have 2 GDK.Net Template options to choose from, These are:
1 - The Standard GDK-Template whith bunch of codes you realy will not use
2 - This Clean Template, See following listing, which is the main code where you put things together.

Thanks but aww.. I want it

[NextGen1]

I may Have a copy, Ill check some of my externals and see if it's there.

[Shark23]

Yeah, I was wondering whether it was worth it to buy the .Net version.

[NextGen1]

I still say yes.

[Shark23]

Alright, thanks. I'll have to get some money then.

[mnpeepno2]

aww not free?

[NextGen1]

The Template is free (which is what will allow you to use DarkGDK.net inside of Visual basic.net), DarkGDK,net isn't free however , But I have 4 Redundant Backups for a few years, For some reason, I remember Buying it around the time I purchased DarkBasic, So I will check my externals sometime tonight (the search will take forever they are each 500GB each) But if I find it , I will share it.

why new font?
