This page lists the contributions I’ve made in terms of tutorials, articles and programs to the blitzmax community.

Technorati : BlitzMax

Update May-2-2006 New Version of CHM File Uploaded for v1.20 - BlitzMaxHelp.chm

One of the downside of Blitzmax is its documentation and help system. In some ways the module info system with its self generating html documentation is good and the IDE provides some assistance to help programmers. But most of us, I suspect, missed having the good old searchable and indexed help system that we have used before.

So I set out to create a compiled version from the Blitzmax html files which uses the Microsoft compiled html help SDK to generate the compiled version. This unfortunately rules out its use for the Mac and Linux

I finally obtained permission from BRL to distribute this to the community. So Enjoy

The CHM File can be downloaded from here (BlitzMax help v116a)

Note that on some XP systems, you cannot view the CHM file until is unblocked (Microsoft security against malware). You will need to right click the downloaded file, select property and unblock it.

Technorati : Blitzmax

I thought I take a diversion from writing my MaxGUI Beginner Tutorial Series to write a short tutorial on how to scroll images using the scroll bars on a MaxGUI canvas. I’ve seen a few questions on this topic on the forums so I hope this will be useful to somebody.

See Tutorial here.

Technorati : BlitzMax, MaxGUI

I am writing a series of tutorials (which I am hoping) will be an extensive series of beginner level tutorials for MaxGUI, a BlitzMax extension which adds GUI capability to this excellent language.

These tutorials are pitched at beginners although I do expect some familiarity with using Blitzmax, the Editor MaxIDE, cutting&pasting code into the IDE , compiling and running BlitzMax programs. I’m also assuming some basic programming knowledge such as variables, loops and conditionals.

The tutorials can be found at http://www.2dgamecreators.com/maxgui/.

enjoy
