Hi all,

Okay, sorry for sounding stupid but I've been away from Blitz programming for a bit now. I'm a registered owner of Blitz2D, but I've noticed that BlitzPlus is out. I'm starting to use 2D again, and I'm wondering if and/or how I should upgrade?

Thanks!
LoTonah

Welcome back. Just buy BlitzPlus for $60 (it's a seperate product) and then read the User's Guide, paying special attention to the section entitled "Migrating from BlitzBasic". You'll find that most of your code will run with little or no modification (though much could probably benefit from a rewrite using an event-based paradigm).

BlitzPlus is MUCH better than Blitz2D. You'll really like it.

And BlitzPlus is much faster from a code perspective than the original 2D I have been told.
