BambooBasic - Retro BASIC Programming using the newest DirectX technology.
This is version 1.0, and as such, probably more of a beta release, but, I've got to hand the reins over for people to try, so, updates, fixes and everything will be built from this.
Windows 11, DirectX12, and a half decent graphics card is required, I havent got a list of which cards plays nice or not, only my own (NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop GPU), and someone has tried it with a Intel Iris Xe Graphics and it's fine. But if you do try it, post your specs if you dont mind, if it works or not.
Executables have been confirmed to run in Linux... Wine-proton, providing you install the direct-X SDK. Apparently too, the IDE will work and compile, but running and debugging is an issue, which isn't a surprise really, especially debugging as it is uses Windows Debug API, which may not be properly implemented, and running from the IDE, there could be a few reasons... Anyway, it was a nice surprise to find it worked at all! :D lol
My aim with this at the minute is to get it stable before adding more to it, I do have plans, more so VR, as I think it will be capable of scenes in VR, maybe not massive worlds, but, within the realms of party games and such.
If your trying it, and you write something you'd like to share, I'm game for users to put their work in the "BambooBasic/boons" folder, I've got heaps of stuff in there myself, but it will be brill to see what people come up with.
Anyway, all in all... Thanks in advance if you take a peek! :)
