I am trying to create a high scores board - currently i was experimenting with just typing a number into a textbox and having it automatically order the numbers (in labels) from largest to smallest however i cannot get them all to work. either just the first and second (label) works or the second and third display the same number or the second decreases in value even though it shouldn't[code]...

I'm working on a video game in VB .NET and I was wondering if there is any way to store its high scores online.If there is any way to do this, that would be great, but otherwise, I'd like to know what would be the best method of locally storing high scores on a single computer.
View 1 RepliesI am Writing a Program in Visual Basic 2008 for my High Schools Advanced Higher Coursework Project... The Game its self runs perfectly and i can display the highscores. i just need some help showing 10 hi-scorers and in ascending order.Currently i am using this code for viewing them.
Code:

Dim TmpHiScore As String 'Temporarly stores the data in file "HiScores.lol".
Dim intTempo As Integer = 1 'Stores the length of variable TmpHiScore.

The hiscores them selfs are stored in a personalised text document and they are all on the one line. the format of this is NAME:SCORE,NAME:SCORE,NAME:SCORE and so on!
I am in a VB.NET class and I am currently modifing a game.

I am trying to read in high scores from a text file that look like this
Name1
Score1
Name2
Score2
Name3
Score3
etc.
I can write them out fine, but reading them in I seem to be having a problem with. I have read in the first name ok but when I try to read in the second name, it is giving me the 3rd name. Code below

Can somebody please explain why lblName2 is becoming the fifth line of text instead of the third? I realise I have probably not used the correct type of variables
I am attempting to get hiscores into the correct order but.. I am having troble with some of it.. I have this for my sort alogrithm
Code:
For i = 0 To Howmany
For j = i + 1 To 9
If ArrScore(i) < ArrScore(j) Then
temp = ArrScore(i)

The hiscores text file looks like this:
Code:
Stuart:120,LoL:192,Computer:112,LoL:113,
The immediate window looks like this when its run.

I need to create high quality icons for my current project in vb.net
This is my code so far,
Private Sub CreateIcon(ByVal bitmapName As String)
Try
Dim fi As New System.IO.FileInfo(bitmapName)

But the problem is it only gives me a very low quality icon at the end. how to make a higher quality image?
Create a program which promps the user to enter an unlimited number of test scores. The program should show the high score and the low score. You should use a loop of your choice within this program. The program should look similar to the one below:
View 3 RepliesIm creating a quiz game although i was wondering if any one can teach/tell me how to create a high score system.For example when the user clicks say button1 (which is stop quiz) an input box will appear asking the user to input their name and then press okay. It then gets the current score from the text box (which is just an integer in a text box indicating how many they got right) and saves it to an Text file or something.and when the user goes back to the main menu, he/she can select "Hall of Fame" which then brings up the highscores (in a new form) of previous users scores.

I have a number of programs written in VB.NET 2010 that load and run on every computer I've tried them on. This week I replaced my mother board with an IBM mother board using a Pentium 4 running Windows XP Pro. I install the programs but as soon as they start to run, they immediately shut down. If I run them in Visual Studio 2010, they run fine.

View 1 RepliesI need to control this terminal Board and I have absolutely no idea if this is can be done. This board is connected to the PC Via PCI Card. Can we do that using .Net Framework?
View 7 RepliesWhat I want it to do is, as I'm typing the word, that it highlights it on the board using the button(x,y).doclick sub which highlights it. Right now my implementation finds the first letter, then keeps trying each letter until it meets the 8 corner condition (ie it is neighbored to the last one) but this does not always work. If there are say 2 "G"'s on the board and I want the bottom one, this will not work. Can somebody give me an example of psuedocode

We learned How to assemble an input/output control board that would connect to your serial port. We were able to use out statements (back in the old gwbasic) to send output signals to the parallel port to turn on/off different outputs. The board had connections where you could connect lights, relays, etc, and had connections where you could attach switches and sensors.
I have been looking for something simple that I can manipulate in my programs. I already have an ActiveHome X10 interface which includes an activex for receiving and sending x10 signals (home automation, turning lights on/off, etc.). I want something that I can straight out connect relays to, and sensors as well. I don't want something that connects to the serial port since that is already being used up, the parallel port would work fine, or even better usb.
I am making a variation of the board game Trivial Pursuit. I am having trouble moving my piece around the board. The board is a circle divided into 32 squares, that are coloured. I am wondering how to get the players pawn to move around the board if it is a circle. They have to move according the the number they role on the dice. I have the dice rolling and finding numbers, but its the moving i'm having trouble with
View 1 RepliesI'm currently developing a chess program. In my program, the problem I'm currently having is the slow drawing of the initial board. Here's part of my _gameGraph.DrawImage(MyResources.Marble_White, New Rectangle(x, y, 70, 70)) The code here draws the black & white squares using a for/next loop. I later use another for/next loop on the array holding the piece values, which uses the same type of function to draw the pieces on top of the squares. Both the pieces and the squares are .PNG images.

I am trying to control the security board using the Windows Firewall which connects to my server that was made in VB.Net. My only problem is when I open the Windows Firewall my server crashes. It also displays this error: "Error, win%fir%90y4e does not support this server. upgrade you version of Winsock.". So I upgraded myself to the latest Winsock that there is out there. After doing so I try again and my server still crashes, but this time with a different error. The error this time was the following: "Error, no client is available for win%fir%90y4e. try again later.". What do I do?

Whereby this code could only convert whatever data(txtSend) that is being typed in, could then convert hex decimal into a textbox(txtReceive).
