BassBox64 (alias BB64) full VS2022 project

BassBox64 (alias BB64)
is a C/C++ VS2022 64-bit version, using a totaly different GUI, with huge size optimization.
The OpenGL visual plugins are still those from the PowerBASIC 32-bit version.



When visual plugins are enabled, press the left or right mouse button to change them.
You can also use the mouse buttons to select a specific image background.
