There is a lot of discussion on using Blitz2 on graphics cards in the BlitzList archives, starting around 1997-1998. |

I would recommend Blitz2 too, but on a stock A500/A600 you should use the first Versions delivered on Disks, because the debugger form the BSS addition needs alot of resources you don't want to spend. The older one is way cool, too. ;-)

I want to compile for stock A600, but I'll be coding on an emulator, emulating the most powerful Amiga I can.
I want to be able to use the best tools possible, but to make it work on a stock A500/A600 |

That's the way to do it. The compiler runs very quickly (for a moderately sized program) on a 030/50, you just need to check the compiled binary so it runs at full speed on a plain A500.
If compilation takes too long, note that you can split your project into several files and include precompiled versions so that you only need to compile the routines you're currently editing. |

Why the hurry?
If you've waited until today to start programming on the Amiga, it must be because there wasn't any rush. |

While there are cross-development kits for C and assembly, there is currently no way to develop Blitz using a PC, and the hurdle towards jumping straight into assembly is rather high.

How about Amiga E? A pretty nice language that compiles fast, supporting structured and object oriented programming.

Is it suitable to make games with it? The thing about Blitz Basic is that it seems to be tailored towards game-making, and that's what I want to do

Ok, just installed Amiblitz 2 on my new configured Winuae Setup.
It asked me if I want it to be in German, i said NO, it said "ok, installing in english". Then the thing is in german and I can't understand any of the compiler error messages. I probably should open a new thread for it or something. How do I put this thing in english? EDIT: I see there's an "Amiblitz2_eng" file and a "PED_Eng" file PED_eng does actually open up the editor in english, but I can't compile anything from there. And Amiblitz2_eng is still in german! Lots of fun so far Last edited by Shatterhand; 06 May 2015 at 07:14. |

Try to rename the _eng files to the default names instead. Haven't run AmiBlitz much, but then again German never bothered me.

Renaming just the ped_eng file to the default name made everything in english. Thank you for the suggestion

You can teach your text editor (if it's a decent one) to syntax highlight your code! I use notepad++, someone in EAB posted syntax coloring for 68k assembler, it might have been me and all
