BlitzMax Forums/OpenGL Module/New Version of BasicGL announced
| ||
| I hope I post it in the right forum: A new Version of BasicGL http://www.ag-tools.com is announced for the end of this week. The new Developer in the AG-Tools team said it in the AG-Tools Forums: http://www.ag-tools.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=359#359 |

| BlitzGL is an engine right? does the command in Blitzmax that it called BlitzGL is in relation with the bmax command ? or it's an individual group that making a engine. |
| ||
| BlitzGL is BRLs max module allowing core access to OpenGL. BasicGL is some opensource Delphi GL library (I think GLScene?), wrapped in a DLL to work with Blitz/max/3d/plus. |
| ||
| I'm glad that the BasicGL project is proceeding along. |
| ||
| Good news. But no words about whats going on with the documentation. |
| ||
| ...or licence? |
| ||
| The documentation is more than 50% completed and I hope it will published together with the new Version. |

| Wasnt there a thread where someone posted something like BasicGL is using GLScene but hasnt free source code which GLScene License demands? Not sure but wasnt there a similar post about Arkons ODE, he wanted to sell? (above are just fragments of my memory, dont bash me if i am totaly wrong, wrote it to make the question more clear) What happens to a developer selling stuff created by third party software, if the third party software (like BasicGL) is breaking a license? Please dont get this as BasicGL bashing thread, looks like arkon and co dont give up on this and i am more and more tempted to use it. So i just wonder if its save to use... |

| where do you put everything from the zip to try the samples |
| ||
| you have to copy "mod" folder in your "blitzmax" folder and then you can simply open the the Samples in Bmax. There is also a readme.txt in the setup folder! |
