How can I go about making a strategy/war game in dark basic or blitz basic. Also are there any toolkits like the rpg toolkit but for creating strategy/war games. Thanks!!!!!

Urgent?

Download some tutorials and samples for either engine, play around with them. Learn the basics until you have an understanding of how the internals of a game work. Then design and plan your game (keep it simple). Then write it.

Quick!!!!! Urgent!!!!! Run and get it written!!!!!!!

dirkduck (yes thats me) says:
If you want it 3d then go with Darkbasic, if you want it 2d then go with blitz...Also, go to theyre sites and ask in the forums there. www.darkbasic.com/forum and www.blitzbasement.com i think for blitz...

McDougal...DUCK McDougal

...or, if you actually want to not look like a total amateur, you can stop wasting your time with Dark/Quick Basic and apply your time to something that will get you somewhere, such as learning C or C++....
Trust me on this

Actually, now that I think about it, you might want to start learning a language that will get you even further. Like English.

By the way, in case you weren't sure, press

[SHIFT] + / 

to make a question mark (which looks like this '?') and usually are written after a question (hence the name). Also, one exclamation mark is plenty, and in English, they only come after the exclamed statement.

Cliff, if you''re going to correct someone on their grammar then at least spell exclaimed properly.

C/C++ is all to difficult for my little brain and basically i really can''t be lumberjacked. I was going to learn OpenGl but that was also too bloody hard. As for learning English, I am trying and getting pretty good but my first language is Japanese, so don''t take the mick!!!!!!
