First a disclaimer, I THINK GAMESTUDIO IS THE GREATEST THING
SINCE SWISS CHEESE and could never do the work I am doing
without it!!
however, I feel those of you accusing others of writing
amateurish code are being message board bullies.
THE FACT IS it is there is no viable business model for this
practice.
If every correspondence created with Microsoft Word or 3d model
created with 3D Studio Max or every photo touched up with Illustrator
screamed those companies brands, EVERYONE would stop using them immediately
and it WOULD make any work created with them SCREAM amateurish
like comparable kiddie programs.
Aknex/Conitec makes a REAL professional product that stands on its own
and beats the pants off of anything else out there. They should let PROFESSIONAL developers like us come to it from word of mouth in the
professional community. This is especially a given for the commercial
versions.
Please, I beg of the company to release to the message boards all necessary
code to free up the splash screen and menue bar branding at least in
the case of professional and commercial versions and ask developers on the honor system through the licence to voluntarily put a line of acknowledgment in the game credits as worded by the company.
Thank you.
