[Reboot has released RAPTOR and RAPTOR Basic for the Atari Jaguar]

Arguably  - Jaguar is easily an order-of-magnitude more sensitive area than politics/religion. So, I'm not sure if that was a good example in a jaguar forum - but you already know that very well 

 

I can, however, both understand and appreciate the need to stay out of the drama. Looks like it actually includes non-positive comments about other sites. So, no public complaining anymore. Should be doable.

 

I do admit, it's been a while since I have seen someone use the term 'forceful opinion' on a forum.

I could interpret that, like, in 5 different ways.

 

Can you elaborate a bit more ? What exactly constitutes a forceful opinion here ?

Correct me if I am wrong, but Raptor can only do 2D, right?

Of course ! Have you ever seen CJ attempt to code anything in 3D ? It's several orders of magnitude more complex and time consuming to produce a 3D engine that runs in acceptable framerate on a jag.

 

But 2D ? I spent a single weekend playing with ObjectProcessor List and that's all that was actually needed. Just a simple array of objects.

That's like Lesson 3 in "teach yourself programming in 21 days" book.

 

 

 

And is a form of BASIC actually going to be able to tap any true power from the Jag? Even in 2D?

I believe you answered your own question. Take a look at games produced by reBoo and you can easily see the performance ceiling.

 

Couple of sprites, static screens - just like old times on Atari 800 ! Except it's a 64-bit monster....
