| I'm sure this question has been asked before (I did search the forums before posting). Is Blitz3D still ok to be used for 2D games? I have BlitzMax but have always got on better with Blitz3D. |
| ||
| Yep - loads of people have a habit of only doing 2D stuff in it. Personally, I think there should be some kind of law against it. |

It's also worth pointing out that since BlitzMax apparently doesn't have a "true" 2D engine built in, Blitz3D is the better choice if (for some reason) you want to do things the old-fashioned way. |

| or use NTGimage its just like blitz max gfx commands but with blitz 3d i can get a link up shortly |

| ok here is a link to it on file front http://files.filefront.com/NTG+image+fixedzip/;12250961;/fileinfo.html 2 examples included |

| What you mean with "still ok"? if it runs on your users PCs and let's you have the graphic capabilities you want, why not use it? Problem is that a lot of games today rely on hardware blending and other special things like that, and for that just the DirectDraw interface Blitz3D gives you won't suffice. |
