Game Programming :: Detect A Collision With The Edge Of A Form
Oct 2, 2009I am currently investigating vb gaming and have set up a test project to move an object; it moves fine. The problem is that when it reaches the edge of the form it continues to move and eventually leaves the form entirely. So my question is how do i work out if my object has touched the edge of the form?

Jun 25, 2009I have a question about collision, yes my 2d tile rpg's map collision works just fine, but im having trouble with the collision with my npc's.

View 1 RepliesDetect A Collision In A Maze?
Apr 4, 2012I'm building a maze application in visual basic. The game relies on two variables, X and Y which are integers. There's a timer which basically invalidates the whole form for a redraw. Now my question is, that there are various squares and rectangles dotted around the form. How would I create a handler, or something as such to detect if the square that the form draws is touching these objects?[code]...

Game Programming :: DirectX Collision Detection?
Aug 11, 2010I have loaded two mesh's from .x files onto the screen, a map and a sprite. The sprite moves around, but because they aren't colliding the sprite goes straight through the mountains, and straight over the undulations. I have looked for a way to find the co-ordinates of a particular spot on the mesh, as I figured by finding the X and Z co-ordinates of the sprite, I could just set his Y co-ordinate to be the same as the map, and he would 'stick' to the ground... however I don't know if this is possible, and I haven't found it yet.

Game Programming :: VB2008 - Space Invader Collision Detection?
Dec 28, 2010i've looked up several tutorials on what i should do to create a collision detection, but im not too positive on how to function my ideas and convert them to code.Basically, i'm creating a space invaders like-game that is 2D Mario-themed (sprites used).I am using a panel for my enemies and Mario is being controlled by the movement of arrow keys and space button shoots.The problem is I can not make my bullets collide with the enemies to make them disappear. This piece of code is what i've got so far with the collision detection :
Code:
'*******************************************************************************************************************************************************
' Collision occurs whenever the pctShoot(podoboo) hits any of the enemy
' When blnTrue, both pctShoot and the enemy disappear
[code].....
While I'm at it, i have another question in concern; but this is not really related to collision but:How do you make an object move down automatically using a timer but make it appear randomly?Like any space invader game, the enemies are shooting back at the hero to make it appear more challenging right?(using Visual Basic 2008)

View 3 RepliesDetect An Unexpected Shutdown Within A Program And React To It In A VB Program?
Aug 14, 2009I'm working on a web browser named Hyvar.NET and i'd like to integrate a form of shutdown detection into it.
Currently, it simply uses a tri-option setting to decide how it opens - like this
If My.Settings.LoadLastOnStart = True Then
frm.wbTab.Navigate(My.Settings.LastOpenedPage.ToString)
ElseIf My.Settings.HomeOnStart = True Then
[Code]....
Each variable is appropriately named for its job as you can see.
However, i want to change this to react to correct and incorrect shutdowns - unexpected and user instigated ones for example. I.E: if the settings variable for the detection contained 0x000000, it could indicate a clean exit and continue as normal with a new session, but 0x000001 would indicate an unclean shutdown and present the user with an option of reopening the last session or continueing as normal, like in IE 7/8
Im 100% sure this will require a windows API call

Jan 6, 2011Objective : Time how long a user has been on the internet. I have never delved this deep into Visual Studio. I am suing Visual Basic 2010 Express. Please move it if you need to.
I want to have a program - that will detect running processes. If Internet Explorere EXE or Chrome or FireFox exe or any other browser is installed - as soon as that process starts the timer will appear.
When those processes are closed by the user the timer stops counting. This is possible but i dont know how. But i only want it to time just one internet process because timing them all when they are openend up at different times could cause bugs. Unless on the time form you have 1 timer for IE, 1 for FFox, 1 for Chrome 1 for Opera..

View 3 RepliesBackground Program To Detect When Regedit Tries To Run?
Sep 3, 2011I have Windows XP Pro, SP3 on a Dell Dimension 9150 with VB 3.0 and all other Visual Studios up to and including VS2010 Pro.I'm not exactly an expert VB programmer, but I have written several different programs.I would like to write a VB program to run in the background and detect when the program regedit.exe/regedt32.exe tries to run.Once the regedit program tries to run, I would like my background program to pop up a message with three options. Allow, Do Not Allow and Cancel.
The Allow button would allow regedit to run.The Don't Allow button will not allow regedit to run and continue to run in the background. The Cancel button would not allow regedit to run and would cancel the background program.Can this be done?I would explain why I want to do this, but it would take too much of this thread. However, if anybody really needs to know, I will accommodate their request.

View 5 RepliesDetect Which Executable Started Your Program?
Jun 13, 2009I have a custom button in IE8 which starts up my program. Now what I wanted to do, was pass an arguement such as: 'myprogram.exe /ie'
From the IE8 button, and well my program will do rest from there. Now my program adds the button just fine, shows up fine, all that works. But each time i'd add an argument after my application path, IE8 would say it can't find the program. If you want to test this out, goto run, type in gpedit.msc, then 'User Configuration'->'Windows Settings'->'Internet Explorer Maintenance'->'Browser User Interface', and double click on 'Browser Toolbar Customizations'. And in the small window that pops up, is an option for adding custom buttons to IE. I was using this for testing purposes, since it was faster to edit a button here than in my program. When you add a button you choose the executable to link it to. But if you add any arguments after it, IE will simply not be able to find the program. Even if that same command works when you type it from 'run'.
So, now my question is, since apperntly you can't have any arguments in the button, is it possible to detect what executable starts your program? For instance, detect if iexplore.exe started up my program?
