There is really no difference, except that you now have the official permission (license) to sell what ever you make with DarkGDK.

Why did you bought it then? Why didnt you stick to free version and then switch to comercial one.

3 - You are supporting DGDK

Well done.

I think DGDK would have got the focus in the past, if there would have been more people paying for the license, because it is way superior to DBPro.

Now im learning SDL/OpenGL so.. i will stop using DarkGDK .
When i move back to DGDK i think i will make my own wrapper using the DGDK Source.

Question:
If i had'nt a license and if i changed the source code of dark gdk, did i need to buy license to sell things?

I paid for 5 sets of Dark GDK with professional licences about a year ago. But sadly, it seems to me that the product has been left partly completed while the developers went off and did something they found more interesting.

Now that they seem to be having so much fun with the AppGameKit, I doubt that the GDK will ever have its bugs fixed. It's a shame, because I have found it to be extremely easy to use. If the omissions and bugs were fixed. I'd be over the moon.

I do wonder if the AppGameKit will be left in the same state when the next interesting thing comes along.

I moved to PureGDK because of the support of the one command that was missing in GDK, IanM's - Make Object New command. It's available in DBPro but not available in GDK. I almost gave up on the project I was working with.

A bit further down the road when I finally get somewhere with writing my game I'll purchase a license, but for now it is just hobby programming for me as most of my code is open for anyone to learn from.

I'd still support GDK for what it is. And as someone said in another post somewhere, GDK and Dark Basic Pro offers things that all other programming languages don't.

C++ is the language for me, it's so much easier to code with, although I even still have to learn a lot still. DBPro I didn't like, I tried it, but went back to GDK. PureGDK is fiddly to setup at the moment but the support for plugins is great. It will be a license for PureGDK that I'll end up getting once I have something to showcase...

@vitinho - as time goes by you'll learn a lot more about C++, I have noticed your move to GDK and admire your confidence. Good luck with your projects...

Warning! May contain Nuts!

A ship simulator project. You can see how we're getting on at http://www.amazing-forum.com

There are some examples I've made, using Dark GDK and Irrlicht.

Sutre of what? the 1 or 2? xD
About 1 yes im sure a friend of mine bought it, i gave him my account and a few days later i had the license there in my products..

About the #2 .. I think it's the same buy it now and buy it later.. if you want it its the same.. if you dont .. never buy.

I was refering to the second. If you develop your game first on free license and then buy the license if you are sure the game is finished, because "sometimes" people buy and then jump to something else (like you just did) and thus a dumb way to loose your money, dont you agree?.
