Recored Arrow Keys And Then Tell Computer To Enter Arrow Keys?

May 23, 2010

So I found this little morpg. The game is fun but really repetitive. I would like to simplify some of the tasks in the game. I do not know how to start this project. How can I recored arrow keys and then tell the computer to enter the arrow keys? One of the objectives in the game is to run around a farm 2x and scare away any wolfs. So the commands would be "arrow key up" for 30sec and then "arrow key right" for 4 sec and repeat. I have worked with robots in real life for some time. We would fill arrays with such instructions. One of the most fun things to program! But I have no idea how to do this in VB.

Game Programming :: Sound Files - Use .exe On Another Computer It Doesn't Play Because It Does Not Recognize .wav Location

Jan 17, 2010

To programming and have a question with sound files. I am trying to figure out the basics and here is what I did: I created a button that is supposed to play a sound.

My.Computer.Audio.Play("C:.......file.wav")

When I click this button in my .exe file it obviously plays because I am using the computer with the above location for the .wav file. When I use the .exe on another computer it doesn't play because it does not recognize that .wav location. How do I make this work for me? Do I need to embed the .wav with my .exe somehow?

Control Picture Sprites With The Arrow Keys?

Jan 28, 2010

I'm trying to control him using the arrow keys.

I've already tryed using the case key event handler, but I must be using it the wrong way, because VB 2008 express (what I'm using) produces a bunch of errors("Type expected" as well as it won't work). This is what I've tryed:

Private Sub GameField_KeyDown(ByVal Sender As Object, ByVal E As
System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles MyBase.KeyDown
Select Case E.KeyCode

Key Up And What Are Arrow Keys

Dec 18, 2010

I want to change the "a" and "d" to key controls left and right perspectively. and I am having some trouble wiht the key up event. KeyChar works for KeyDown (after I forced it to) but not for KeyUp (even though they share the same things). I finally figured out how to get the picturebox to change its picture, but now I am stuck at this part. getting an animation in, and when im done moving, get the animation back to the idle picture. im also having a little bit of trouble with movement. pictre - as a split second of movement and (space) as a split second of not moving, when i begin moving, lets say it goes this way (there is a space right after the first -, so that was a split second that it stopped and then started continuously started moving again). how can i make it so it goes nice and fluid once you start moving? also, if i were to press any single key while holding A or D down, it either stops and i have to press the key again to move it move or, it goes in the other direction(if I hit a then d, or d then a). and in the key up event, id like it so when the a (or d) key is up, it goes back to the stand animation, and when moving, it goes to the moving animation.

Arrow Keys In MDI Focus Is Lost

Nov 28, 2009

I had previously made a simple Pong program which use keyboard to control. The control includes "s" to start the game, "p" to pause, "r" to resume and left, right to move the paddle specifically. This program work with little problem. The first problem I encounter is if I insert even one single button on the form to display instruction, the arrow keys will no longer work. But I get around it by using Menu Strip instead.

Then, I am required to put this program, among others into a MDI program. And this is where the problem happen. If I have this Pong game loaded, and I press "s", "p", or "r" keys, it have no problem, but if I press the "left" or "right" keys, it will not move. I am speculating that maybe the focus is lost when arrow keys is pressed or something similar, but I have absolutely no idea what is happening. I have tried giving focus back to the form if focus is lost, but to no avails. And this is the code for the movement of the paddle. This reside on a form, the movement itself is passed to another class. The MDI parent is on another form. [Code]

Disallow Arrow Keys In MonthCalendar?

Mar 8, 2009

I want to update some things on the form when the user clicks a new date (or changes the month, which automatically selects a new date). If I use the DateSelected event, it seems to work as expected when I use the mouse. However if the arrow keys are used, the event does not get triggered. If I use the DateChanged event, it seems to go into an infinite loop. The message box pops up a zillion times when I click the arrow to change the month:

Private Sub MonthCalendar1_DateChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DateRangeEventArgs) Handles MonthCalendar1.DateChanged
MessageBox.Show("DateChanged")[code]....

The only problem with using the DateSelected event is that if the user uses the arrow keys, the event is not fired. I thought I could fix this by disallowing the use of the arrow keys, but I couldn't find anywhere to do that.

Textbox Navigation With Arrow Keys

Dec 28, 2009

I have a group of textboxes for a tab editor. 6 vertcle, 25 horizonal. ( numeric guitar sheet music) I want to be able to navigate them with the arrow keys. If I number them in chronological order from the bottm left, the up arrow key would be "+1", down arrow key "-1", the left key "-6", & the right arrow key "+6". That way I can navigate any possible way on the array. My question is, "How do I do this in code?". ( I have never had a school coarse of any kind in programming-learning VB Express at home.)
