Title: GLBasic -- planned support for Pandora?
Post by: BasicMe on 2008-Apr-12
Is there a plan to create a GLBasic compiler for the Pandora (GP2X's successor) once it comes out?  I found a discussion about this in the German section, but it wasn't quite clear to me.  :)

If this might happen, could we get an 800x480 resolution in Windows?  It would help for development and testing, in anticipation of support for Pandora down the road.

I'm working on a GP2X first-person-perspective game that's threatening to become very ambitious.  So I thought it would make more sense to develop it for the next generation handheld instead.

hmm, in windowed mode its already possible to use this resolution

Code (glbasic) Select
SETSCREEN 800, 480, 0

WHILE TRUE
  DRAWLINE 10, 10, 790, 470, RGB(255, 0, 0)
  SHOWSCREEN
WEND

I would love to be able to code for the Pandora - I'm seriously considering purchasing it, although I will wait to see what the general build quality is like and how other devs feel about the machine first.

Ah, excellent!

Not supported in the demo version, however.  I guess I need to seriously consider buying the full version.  ;)

yes, demo supports only 640 x 480 as far as I know.
But full version is worth every cent ;)
