Preserved Topic: VBSCRIPT

What do you guys think about using VBSCRIPT to code for games? DHTML games are cool and all, but can it do everthing vbs can?

See Visual Basic Scripting in action. People tell me I should uss CSS instead of a bunch of tables and people tell me that VBS is somehow better than DHTML for coding games, let me hear you out on this.

Visual Basic (incl. all derivates) is the shittiest programming language, period.

So, my suggestion is not to waste time with it...

Looking to get into programing myself, what does anyone recommend as a good place to start?


A wise man once said;
"I don't know!?!?"

MalFunkShun, HTML and JavaScript is a good idea.

The poster has demanded we remove all his contributions, less he takes legal action.
We have done so.
Now Tyberius Prime expects him to start complaining that we removed his 'free speech' since this message will replace all of his posts, past and future.
Don't follow his example - seek real life help first.

I have never used VBScript so I can't comment on it. However have you ever seen the site http://www.javascript-games.org/ They have JavaScript libraries for sprites keyboard input & sound.

C++ for games!

I don't reccommend VB script at all, I don't reccommend ASP at all, I don't reccommend IIS at all. I don't reccommend MicroSoft at all.

It is all shit product, bloat ware, stuff that you should leave behind if you are really concerned with creating advanced server-client applications (i.e. web server/web pages).

Stick with the *nix envirorment. BSD = good too.

thanks for setting me straight guys..........

VBscript only works in IE, chitty language
