Convert Mirage Source to Delphi 7

[moller]

I repeat my question.

Is there anything that you can do in Delphi that you can't do in VB6 that'll make Mirage more advanced?

--------------------------------------

Are there any features which you would want to create for Mirage that you can't do in VB6?

In the end, the engine will run as well as you know the language. If you know Delphi more than VB6, I'd suggest you find a Delphi based engine or even program your own. I really don't understand how you could convert a VB6 application to some other language if you don't know VB6 >_>

Mirage is comprised of a graphics engine, a simple sound API call and a network engine. All of the code can probably be found at www.pscode.com or elsewhere in open source projects.

Rather than trying to manually convert the entire thing, I suggest you go look for an open-source graphics engine for Delphi and start an engine from that.

I can't think of any other feature that Delphi can do, that Mirage already can, since it's so advanced already, but still, I believe you can make it more advanced.
If you read the whole post, I say that I've been doing VB6 for about a year.

I think it's cool you want to try to make an open source engine in another programming language. But I don't see the point of duplicating Mirage Source. If you are going to switch it over, just create an entirely new engine.

If it succeds, it won't be callde Mirage Online, but of course, it'll have the biggest credits for the coding.
