Whats your thoughts on A7? Is it good? easy to use?

Depends, this question has gone around quite a bit and has caused some firey discussions

A7 comes with Lite-C (and still C-script), a new programming language that is far superior to it's old companion, C-script. A7 supports so many new programming features in it, you can't really even compare Lite-C to C-script.

Many people don't seem happy about the fact that A7 does not support out-of-the-box or template visual eye-candy. And the editors have not changed very much, except for some new buttons icons and a few new features.

If you have A7 commercial, you will have support for render-to-texture (usually in the pro. version, allows for advanced post processing shader effects, etc.), unlimited ODE physics entities (also usually in pro.) and up to 8 multiplayer clients simultaneously.

But A7 in my eyes is a great product, and the advantages outweigh those "disadvantages".

But I am sure you will get people here who will say otherwise

Also, in the forecasts at the top of the page, awesome new features are on the way, such as radiosity lighting, decals, etc.

Lots of new stuff to catch up on but you can use it in A6 mode while your doing that.
Great rendering and function handeling, less warnings so watch out for unexplained exits at start, usually means a basic script syntax is incorrect or calling for an endless loop that has all pointers corrected etc...
In short, another learning curve but a great product by any means.

Yes, a bit of a learning curve, but it's a little less steep if you already know C-Script. I actually used to not wanna switch to Lite-C, but now I use it all the time. I almost never use C-Script anymore, except when I want to throw together a quick collision-supported camera code for a test level or something like that.

Thanks for your input guys, this helps a lot! I am debating
upgrading my A6 product and I wanted to hear what real users
of A7 had to say rather than the hype they put up on the site.
Thank you~

always,
