Title: request for glbasic on cd
Post by: Drink! on 2013-Mar-28
hi, i require a copy of gl basic on cd if anyone can help.  you may ask why i dont simply download it  and i would if i could, let me explain.

late last year a relatives pet used my laptop as a toilet and ruined it.  earlier in the year a member of the family passed away and since then ive been  paying funeral costs. this as resulted in cancleing my broadband package and other luxeries.  im currently using my mobile internet(to write this message) and free wifi with my new (sub standard) laptop when i can.

i am the forum user: i love my brick, was creating a sprite designer and often contributed to circular math.  the events of last year left me  forgetting my email and gl basic passwords, so ived created newones.

if anyone lives in nottingham uk and can kindly post a copy please contact me via email.  im just itching to get back to typing some code.

a big thanks

long live father ted :)

If you want to contact me with your postal address, I can easily send it to you on a CD.

You would still have to contact Gernot to send you the unlock code (you would probably need to provide your name and registered email address).

PM me or MrT and we'll gladly send you a CD. Which versions of GLB do you want?

hi and thanks for the support.  i havnt checked the pixel fill thread of late but i did manage to code a very fast fill routine where you make the scre.en a sprite and sprite2mem,check target point, mem2sprite. the fill was almost instantaneous with only a few gremlin s to be ironed out.  will get on with recoding that soon

It's so sad to read the first post on a technical forum and use it as an excuse for CD to be shipped.

I wont be sending an unlock code, so there wont be a problem.

If the original code has been lost, then hopefully Gernot will be able to help...

Hey Brick. Sorry to hear about the bad news. I myself had a terrible year too. Best check the offers from locals as such voing from brazil is overkill.
Cheers! ...and I mean it!
