Liberated Code Foundry - Rewarmed

[David Drake]

For those who remember, I once had a site called the Liberated Code Foundry where lots of open source code programs and examples for Liberty BASIC were available.  The site was last updated in 2004 and finally closed for good in 2016.  However, the arrival of LB5 (alpha) has sparked my interest in LB again, so I've decided to re-establish the old site.

The Liberated Code Foundry - Rewarmed is now available at www.kkb9.com/lcf.  It is essentially exactly what was posted in 2004, with a few minor tweaks and fixes.

As time allows, I will update these programs to the latest LB4 and LB5 releases.  In the meantime, I'm pretty sure most of the programs will work just fine in LB4.

Hope you enjoy!  Just be sure to blow the dust off of the ZIP files before you use.

Tie fighter, use find replace to change 1)short to long, 2)dword to long, 3)#mm to #winmm and remove the open and closure of winmm.dll, not needed now, 4)mciSendString to mciSendStringA and put ;backcolor black after color green.
Sorted!


Dito for primate, short to long dword to long mciSendString to mciSendStringA  and #mm to #winmm and remove open and closure of mmsystem.dll Also changed keyboard read to this.


[manMovement]

key = asc(right$(Inkey$,1))

if key = 32 then key$ = "jump"

if key = _VK_LEFT then key$ = "left"

if key = _VK_RIGHT then key$ = "right"

if key = _VK_UP then key$ = "up"

if key = _VK_DOWN then key$ = "down"

I have updated the files as you suggested, Rod.  Thanks for the feedback!  I've learned a few things.  Updated programs are available on the site www.kkb9.com/lcf.
