QB Express #7 Released - Pete - 02-20-2005
The February issue of QB Express is now available!
This is the biggest issue yet, with a total of ELEVEN different tutorials for both FreeBasic and QB, the largest news section yet, game previews and reviews, articles, editorials, comics and more! Just the text of this issue weighs in at 211KB, so you know it's big.
The tutorials this month include: I.F. Games Chapter 2 - Na_th_an, Playing WAVE Files Through The Windows API - aetherfox, Music Composition Tutorial - Matt2Jones, Text RPG Tutorial - Nixon, Z-Clipping Triangles - Shashi Ponraja, * Animation Tutorial - Rattrapmax6 (Kevin), FB GUI Tutorial Part II - Nekrophidius, SDL Basics with FreeBASIC - Tutorial 1 - BastetFurry, SDL, FreeBASIC, Transparency, Keyboard and Other Suspects - Tutorial 2 - BastetFurry, 16 Meg .EXE Files Using Overlays - Na_th_an, and FreeBasic Pointers Tutorial - VonGodric.
Then the rest of the mag is made up of a whole slew of different articles, of all different types. We bring you a double dose of The Gallery this month, with two games by Na_th_an and Nekrophidius, respectively (StarOdds32 and Phantasm), a new competition, another Horse Comic by Rattrapmax6, an article by SJ Zero called "FreeBasic is our future. OUR Future.", a review of Joakim's Scorched Planets by Zap, and two extra special articles by my friends Mike Wechsler and Brad Milison.
All this and a whole lot more can be found in Issue #7 of QB Express. Enjoy!

Great issue again, Pete.
One minor gripe though: when you listed Phantasm in the Gallery, you stated that it uses MIDI music...that's not correct, it uses modules...hence the large size. In addition, like Two Lords, I had not officially released a demo version of Phantasm...perhaps I should have included that little detail with my email to you. My bad. :oops:

Nek: I fixed the "MIDI" comment. Do you want me to take down the link to the demo, or just leave it?

Awesome work, as always. The contents is great.
And what I like the most is that you are open minded, not a "I just do QB" zealot. It's nice that it has became sorta "MS BASIC dialect" magazine.
I dunno if this is an IE issue, but the code boxes have lost the indentation. It's like if TAB had no effect.

heh what can I say?
It's getting better and better and Pete I hate you man :evil: I spent last 1.5 hours reading it completely forgetting everything else :roll:
jk
Nice job -as always.

In Firefox almost all of the code doesnt turn up at all, altho you can for some code-boxes (if they fit inside the window fully) regain it by pressing ctrl-a. Also there's a huuuuge grey box over a big part of the Composition article.
But otherwise, a great issue.
