| marksibly (Posted 7 months ago) - "BlitzMax Update 124 Now Available!" Quote Grisu: Btw: Will the flat assembler updated sometime as well?!? The current version works fine - what would an update achieve apart from potential compatibility problems? I seriously doubt this would happen - FASM is written be a seriously clever dude, but still, if it ain't broke etc... Unlike compilers, assemblers either work or they don't - you don't generally get 'good' assemblers that generate efficient code and 'bad' ones that don't. Bye! Mark Sibly |

| @MGE - try upgrading. I'm pretty sure newer versions of FASM are considerably faster at assembling. If you get any dodgy errors, you can always fall back. I ran a newer version on my old rig with no problems. |

| I'm using the newest version without ANY problems under Winxp as well. Just make sure you backup the old exe before replacing it. |
