Its no longer supported, and I don't think you'd get the Blitz membership. My advice, if you don't want something better like BlitzMax, or Blitz3d. Save your $20 (over the 40) and get BlitzPlus a supported Blitz with membership I believe. ------------------ MM out- Thought travels much faster than sound, it is better to think something twice, and say it once, than to think something once, and have to say it twice.

But I would suggest getting Blitz3D, it may be $100, but it includes everything Basic\Plus has but more, and if you change your mind and want to make 3D games you have the choice and don't have pay an extra $100 for a new version.

Mene-Mene Member Posts: 1398 From: Fort Wayne, IN, USA Registered: 10-23-2006	BTW, Lava, I'm sure you know this, but BlitzPlus is a later language than BlitzBasic. I also agree with what you said, save your $40/20 so it doesn't cost you $100/60 later. ------------------ MM out- Thought travels much faster than sound, it is better to think something twice, and say it once, than to think something once, and have to say it twice.

Second it would be a good lesson in persistance, and patience. So far I've been saving more many months for a Bow. I won't list the price, but I assure you it is more than Blitz3d. ------------------ MM out- Thought travels much faster than sound, it is better to think something twice, and say it once, than to think something once, and have to say it twice.
