Those of you waiting for Max3D, have a long wait ahead of you which will most likely end in your giving up on 3d games all together.
Know that for sure do you? I dont mind the wait, and i am actually using c++ for certain projects just now, but it is a hell of a learning curve, even if i was fully proficient in c++ i would still prefer blitzmax as it is so much cleaner, its quicker to produce stuff and will return with the interest in full force when it finally comes out. I have not lost anything in fact i have gained something in the process.So thanks Mark for taking your time.
