Hi, I can not properly install Blitz3D + Ideal on a nephew's computer, that's why I want to learn how to program. The problem is mainly in Ideal that you click on Update Userlib files. Throws an error.

Any Suggestions?

Blitz3D and ideally installed on x86.

I appreciate the help.

yes, to update userlibs, you need a patched version of ideal.

Download patched version 0.8.0.294

You can run the patched version to update the definitions and other settings, which do not work else.
But the use of Unpatched version is recommended, because the error does not crash Ideal but only a dll call, and this can be ignored.
