Yeh, BasicGL is probably now defunct - "arkon" and "ventru" were the main people on this site connected to it - "arkon" has changed his Blitz Nick since.

I was approached by someone in recent months to buy BasicGL in its entirety - to effectively own it.

Not sure what has happened to it - ie, if it now has new owner or is just defunct. Selling it would be hard as the new owner would have to continue supporting and developing it and they would have to be a bloody good coder who knew their stuff.

I feel a bit sad about it as I thought it was a great project and used to try an promote it where I could.

There were a lot of licensing problems in the latter stages - some people claiming to have paid for it and not receiving licence keys. I think that was all sorted. I heard that "arkon" had become very ill and that things were not moving smoothly.

Puki is right to be sad, this was a very interesting B3D development and it seems to have gone pear shaped, as most none full time things do. - sigh.
