Creating File To Record And Display Best Score From Each Game?
Nov 2, 2010
To clarify - I'm building a simple game in visual basic and I'm trying to create a simple file to record and display the "Best Score" from each game. Actually there are four levels in this game (each one is on a different form) - I'm trying to save the best score from each level to display in a separate Game Stats form. Therefore I creating a datatable on one form, but then trying to get all my other forms to access it.
But now I get a new DBNull error message in part of code not of my making - NewGameDataSet.Designer.vb
Error Message = "The value for column 'BestScoreEasy' in table 'GameTable' is DBNull."
Does this mean I need another New Statement somewhere?

On programming assignment without having any real experience in vb. I guess I don't understand subroutines that well. When the program runs it never goes to the computer's turn and does not update the users score either. This assignment is already in but would like to know what is going wrong. Using VB 2010, and this is windows application.
Code:
Public Class Form1
Dim Myturn As Integer
Dim Computerturn As Integer

Check Score: The winner is the one with the highest score less than or equal to 21If both scores(player total and computer total) are over 21, or if both are equal but under 21, the game is declared a draw.
There is something wrong with this line:
If intPlayerCardTotal < intScore And intComputerTotal < intScore Then
MsgBox "Draw"

I currently have a who wants to be a millionaire game that I have made in visual basic 2010. Each question is in its own form. Form1 opens at the start, and question 1 is opened by a button click on Form1. The user has to click on the picture box at the side to show the text for the question each time. If they answer incorrectly, it displays a message box, opens an input box asking for their name, and goes to the form with the high score list, Form17.
Upon opening Form17, I want the scores to load and be displayed in the list box. The high scores are saved in a text file at C: est.txt . Upon clicking menu or end, the high scores are saved to the text file.

I have to use an access DB as a score table and having a few problems.I have the table showing in a data grid fine what i now need to do is find a way of updating it depending on the score someone gets.anyway here is what I have so far and what I want to do is if player scores say 1000 that his/her score then will be put in that place then the others move down....
Code:
Imports System.Data.OleDb
Public Class highScores
' Full path to database must be given if not in Debug/BIN folder
[code]....
the score table opens on a new form and the score is held in a var on form 1 called lol score just a quick edit I have put 2 buttons on the form to load the data in the grid to start with but this will load automaticly and the name will be entered into either a txtbob or an inputbox?

I am creating a point system for a game. What i have right now is that fastest time with highest score gets a higher ranking.
But i can't seem to create this, what i did was to sort the time first from lowest to highest. Then sorted the points from highest to lowest.
Now my problem is, when i display the results. This is what i get.
RANK TIME SCORE
1 0:56 5
2 0:60 4
3 0:37 2

I just finished making a Tetris game in VB.NET, and I wanted to add a high score system to the application. So, when a user completes their game, they have the option of submitting it as a high score, which will compare their score against the previous high scores, then place it accordingly. I was thinking of an XML approach of doing this, where the user's name, rank, score, level, and number of lines cleared will be stored in tags. Here is what I thought the XML might resemble:
[Code]...
So the program will have an array to store all the previous scores. It will read through the XML, and copy the the score data into this array. Then, when the time comes to submit a score, it will compare this score against those previous scores, and find the proper position for that score, and then save it into the array. At the end, it will then copy all the score data from this array to the XML, replacing the <Level>, <Lines>, and <User> tags in the process.I am however having trouble implementing this, as I have no experience with XML files and everything I've read has been very confusing.

What I have is a database in a Windows Form (via tableAdapters etc., basically the default stuff VS adds). What I need to do, is add a very simple record of a name and score (the "place" is an auto-number). I have not even been able to tackle sorting the table, because I can not even figure out how to insert...

I've ran out of options, and there simple was no other place to come. I have wanted to make a 3D game for so long, so bad, I can't even describe it. Now I started in C# making 3D games in the XNA Game Studios 3.1 Engine, but I eventually fell through the cracks. Let's cut to the point, shall we? I was wondering if there was a simple way in Visual Basic 2008, that I could maybe display a 3D model on the screen, like a .x file extension, or .fbx, or .obj or anything...? I can easily create 3D models, and I'm good at it, but is there a simple way, or a component/refrence/game engine that you could use with Visual Basic 2008. I know there's alot more to making games then just display models, Why I choose Visual Basic 2008, you ask? Well, it's my best language and I can easily write small games with x, y, z and float positions.

I have two tables Products and Categories with a many to many relationship. I am trying to copy the categories linked to one product (OriginalProduct) to another product (newProduct). The problem is when I execute the SaveChanges() method, I not only get the records in my linking table, but it also creates another copy of the categories in the categories table. I've tried this in many ways but here are the last couple that I've attempted:
' Copy Product/Categories
For Each oneProdCategory In OriginalProduct.Categories
Dim relatedCategory = _productContext.GetObjectByKey(New EntityKey ("ProductInfoEntities.Categories", "RecordId", oneProdCategory.RecordId))

I am writing a noughts and crosses game and I want to be able to keep score everytime each character wins a game, I have written a sub routine to handle this but it seems to count up in 5's and 10's??I have used a global variable like this Dim i As Integer = 1 then declaired that variable in my sub like this i += 1 (I thaught that this would just add 1 everytime X won a game)then used the variable i to add the score to the label control that keeps the score for the character X.My question is, am I using the correct syntax (+=) for the variable.

Recently I have been wanting to learn a bit more about Visual Basic and I've decided that I want to test my abilities by Making a Card game. The card game uses a customized deck of around 140 card. The Cards are all buildings which you need to place down by discarding a specific amount of cards in yoiur hand. The Objective of the game is to get 12 buildings built and get the most points. Many cards will be layed down at some point in the game.The way I think I will be creating the game is by Creating a Class for the Deck which will use a class for the Card. I would like the Card Class to somehow create a picture box of the cards image on the form which will hold all the other cards being displayed.
