Dear all,

I've pretty much forgotten everything I ever knew about DBp, and although I bought AppGameKit, I've never really had the time to look at it.

Now, hearing of DBElite has really excited me, and I was wondering should it ever appear, what would be my best way of preparing for it? Get used to DBpro again, or start from scratch with AppGameKit?

I know nothing's confirmed as yet, but I'm sure some knowledgeable folk will have an idea of which way it will go, and what current package would act as a suitable stepping stone to DBElite.

I hope.

Many thanks.

DBPro should be the closest to DB Elite. It might be an idea just to make some of the old retro demo's like the Amiga had...

AGK from what I understand was built with DB at its core in terms of syntax and coding methods... So the choice is yours... Note DBP is 3D and AppGameKit will be 3D soon however the functionality will vary... Also note DBE will basically build upon DBP... So the logical path would be DBP > DBE and pick up AppGameKit in between... I bought AppGameKit a year ago still not touched it as it still lacks the functionality I require although network commands have been built upon... I just need a method to playback Video... In Tier1...

Hope that helped...
