Game Programming :: Refering To A 2nd Imported Project, Within The Same Solution?
Jan 21, 2011
i Imported 2 programs that I made into one solution. I made a "BIG" main menu (new windows form), put two buttons. I code one button to open up the first project (that works fine). I code the other button to open the project I imported, however it says that the name is not declared. Am I doing something wrong? here is my code for the "BIG" main menu:
[Code]...
now only the "Original name of first project" appears to be not declared, if I delete "Original name of first project", then "the project I imported"is not declared and so forth. Note: These are not the exact names I called my forms. I'm just trying to explain it clearer.

Enviro: 2007 Exchange Server, 2 Intranet servers (1 deploy, 1 dev) running .NET 2.0 app - all within same network / behind firewall. I am working on a legacy app by our previous web guy, when our sysadmin upgraded to exchange 2007 and put it on a new server all of the mail functions in old app broke. Had to upgrade to .NET 2.0 (from 1.x) and nothing worked untill I tried new SMTP code in a local function in the codebehind of a page of the app instead of calling a class, as follows:
Function SendNow(ByVal strFrom As String, ByVal strTo As String, ByVal strSubject As String, ByVal strBody As String) As Object
Dim msg As New MailMessage()
Dim smtp As SmtpClient
[code]....
So the above works fine, in that file. The problem is that the app was designed to call a class that resides on the dev server. When I move this same code into the class on the dev server I get transport errors. I think this has to do with the fact that we're using integrated authentication with impersonation=true and it seems to get dropped due to the class being on a different server (even though it's behind our firewall).
I could either try moving the classes to the production server or somehow keep the authentication in the class working through the hops. Either way I need to keep the class because it's referenced all over the place (in more than just this app). I am not that savvy in .NET and I cannot figure out where the setting is within the app that defines where the class is imported from. It just seems to be available no matter where the app is deployed. (Working files are on same server as classes, then publish the app to production server).

I have created a scrabble game that generates random letters. For the user to type in a word using the random letters they have to type it in a text box.
I want my program to prevent users from typing in letters that are not provided in the text box and to allow them to type in the random letters that are provided.

I'm trying to make a simple fruit machine game for windows mobile device.
I can create the game easily enough and flip through pictures in a picture box to display the correct symbol.. but what I'd like to do is do a proper spinning reel, but have no idea where to even start.
What I have is a list of images in an imagelist (or individual files) - what I'd like is them attached to each other and moving downwards, preferably as though it were going around a drum but just them moving would be a start.

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

Upon changing the field size a game should restart. Upon trying to do so I see the previous grid (e.g. 10x10) displayed on top of the new one (e.g. 4x4). How would I prevent this and indeed start the game fresh?

So here is my problem. I have a vb game with animated sprites and all, and the character even jumps. However it only works in the y direction. So if i'm moving, he stops in place and jumps, instead of jumping forward. I was wondering if someone knew how to make him move at the same speed forward during the jump.

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 am having trouble entering a name on my first form(startup) and keeping track of the score on second form(game) and displaying it both combined on the first page with the current users score. Also the way it set up now if you are running the game for the first time it says can't find LowScores.Text. Start Up

I'm making a game engine, its coming along pretty nicely, but I'm having trouble with collision detection.. This will be a platform game..I'm using GDI+ for my rendering.My rendering engine, basically draws upon a sprite class I wrote, this class is getting pumped into a collection, then I'm using a for loop to draw the images in the collection..
Code: Private Sub Form1_Paint(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.PaintEventArgs) Handles Me.Paint Try For i As Integer = 1 To SCollection.Count Step 1 Dim Image As New Bitmap(DirectCast(SCollection.Item(i), clsSprite).Filename)

okay so here's the go. i have to design the inventory system for a game and one of the things it has to be able to do is combine items together. the way i went about this was to give each item a binary ID (1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128) so that no item has the same ID. the cool thing about this is that you can combine items together and get a new unique ID like this:
if you have an item Stick with ID 8 and an item string with ID 16. you can say that these two combine together to create a bow with ID 24 (8+16).you can reverse the process and find out that the bow is made up of a stick and a string since there is only ONE way you can get the ID of 24 using binary.hope that makes sense, some of you have probably seen it before anyway the problem i found out with using this is that you can only have about 31items before the binary ID's get too big when using the 'long' type in vb.net, and that's not enough.
one suggestion was to use Hexadecimal. another i liked was something about creating a class that would manage several long data types linked together to create as many ID's as i needed. but i didnt fully understand this one enough to implement it

I read the boundary thread and I think im still lost on how to do this but my goal is to set boundaries so the snake doesnt just keep going off the screen, also how to set a boundary up so the snake cannot hit itself (like in the original snake game)

I have created two fields (Panels) on my form and populated them with grid lines. Grid lines are calculated using the following variables: x1, y1, x2, y2.
Dimensions of each field are fixes and = 240x240, hence grid lines start at 20 and increment in the form of 20 * i (i from 1 to 11).
Now at this stage I have a problem, I want to create an Integer array with 10 rows and 10 columns, and I want each position in that array to correspond to a certain tile of my grid. (I will use that for the AI which will analyse the grid to see if a ship has been hit to work out next move, also see which cells are not available for shooting. For example, a 0 in the value of an array position will represent a tile on the grid that is available for the next shot, 1 will represent a ship and a 9 will represent the area around a sunken ship that definitely has no other ships in it)
As far as I understand it should be done using a function that would translate the co-ordinates of each cell of the grid in to a corresponding position in the array. But I'm afraid my knowledge are quite limited in this area, how can I put that in to practice? and also how can I highlight a specific tile when hovering mouse over it?
