PlayBasic V1.64P _Retail Upgrade_ Now Available (22nd, Sep, 2014)




     This release updates any version from PlayBasic V1.63w2 to PlayBasic V1.64O2 (retail) to the current retail version of PlayBasic V1.64P. If your current version is older than PB1.63W (pre June/July 1997), then you may need to install patch PB1.63w2 prior to this one ! (if you haven't already)


     The V1.64P upgrade presents a huge change to the underlying technology that PlayBasic programs execute upon. These changes range from high level compiler optimizations/bug fixes/omissions down to how almost every internal commands is called, which not only give us faster program execution, but it allows internal PlayBasic command sets to be called from the external DLL's built via PlayBasic2DLL tool.

     Programmers using PlayBasic2DLL in combination with PlayBasic V1.64P can now write truly modular applications in high level PlayBasic without ever having to learn low level C/C++ or PASCAL programming. You can write your functions and compile it a DLL using PlayBasic2DLL. Meaning PlayBasic programmers can build their own command sets /extensions and perform all brute work number in highly optimized machine code DLL's.


     There's way too many changes to try and summarize it all, so we highly recommend carefully reading through the V1.64P WORK IN PROGRESS GALLERY for more insight in what new additions are hidden away in this release.
