Advanced Login Form With Access 2007 Database?
Apr 7, 2010i am trying to build a Visual Basic program with an Access 2007 database in the back. I have another Access 2007 database with two tables stored in there. Each table has two columns, a UserID and Password column. This database will be used with a LoginForm so that if the user enters a normal login and password they will be taken to a specific form whereas if they enter an AdminID and password they will be taken to another form with different features. I managed to connect to the database and it works fine but i tried making the passwords and user names case sensitive for better security. I don't have a problem with this when i try only one of the tables, but when i try to implement the second table (to check if the login is an admin or a normal user)

View 7 RepliesDll For Card Games?
Feb 13, 2012I have been looking for like 3 hours trying to find a dll or anything to make a simple cards game, but everything I find is oriented to C.
In this page A FreeCell game using Cards.dll - CodeProject� they talk about just what I want, but I cannot make it work in Visual Studio 2008 using Visual Basic.net, I don�t know if that has anything to do with the Vista OS I am using.
In the page I mention the author says "There are many good articles on the net on how to use the Cards dynamic link library" and I am sure the good articles are there, but my good luck has make me looping around the same nonsense results so I end up with nothing after 3 hours search.
The game I want to make is just something for a project we must do in class, how to start making a cards game fast and simple. If someone knows about a cards dll that works fine with vbnet, that someone would be my new hero.

View 6 RepliesVB & Database Advanced ?
Mar 23, 2012I have a university assignment, The problem, well.. in the short anyway; i have this form which is for placing orders. There is an "add product" command and next to it a list box. what I would LIKE to achieve is being able to click on add and then a query would come up asking for the user to input a product ID then check either yes or cancel. once that is done, I would like the database to search products by ID (obviously) and then display the product in the list box. the list box may contain up to 5 products and no more. there is also functions to remove individual products from the list box as well as clear the list box all together. in addition to this mammoth task, I also have a label which requires a total price. this would be the price of all the items in the list box, not in the database.
View 3 Replies.net Launcher App To Launch Games?
Jan 10, 2010the thing is that i am creating a little launcher shell that will start on a lan-party computer full with games.all the things i am doing with it is for my own use only and will not be used for harmfull stuff. in the other topic i got the intention that they thought i was a cracker of hacker or something.im am just creating a launcher app that launches my games without the use of explorer.exe to be loaded with windows.i have done several things to try to load a game when i press a button but they always crash. when i start the games normally there is no problem.first i thought it needed the use of explorer.exe but when i tested my app with explorer.exe running i got the same result. so i think its my app that is causing the problem.
i have used this:
Process.Start("C:\Program Files (x86)\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\BF2.exe")
and this:
Dim startInfo As System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo
Dim pStart As New System.Diagnostics.Process
startInfo = New System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo("C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Related Designs\ANNO 1404\Anno4.exe")
[code].....
as for the people who replied in the other topic. the register files you have seen in my code was for activating the GameShell.exe to run as shell instead of the explorer.exe for the current user and for all users and to restore it to explorer.exe.

Jul 13, 2009I am trying to make a two player game.Each player is able to move left and right, aim up and down, jump, and shoot.On some occasions when a number of keys are being pressed at once, some other keys wont register.For example, you can hold a key down to keep moving left, keep holding a key down to aim up(changing the angle), keep holding a key down to keep jumping, keep holding a key down to keep shooting. and there are TWO players at the same time:if both players are shooting, only one can aim down(press key to change angle). but it is fine if both trying to aim up ? Can the keyboard not handle too many keys at once?

View 3 RepliesCreate Video Games In Program?
Jan 17, 2012How to Create Video Games in VB.Net
I realize that this is a very popular subject, especially amongst budding developers. The drive to create games may be the reason you started working with Visual Basic in the first place. After stepping through a few samples and getting the hang of working with user controls on a form, it may be very tempting to start to throw some PictureBoxes and a Timer on a Form and start to implement some game logic. Seems easy enough, right?
To some extent, this is a true statement.You could start to do this and it would be easy enough at first. But when you begin to try to calculate collision and animate or rotate your sprites, you may start to run into some difficulty. And attempts to circumvent the problems often lead to even worse issues.This can cause an endless spiral of misery which could leave you thinking VB just isnt meant to make games!
The initial problem that most people face is the desire to use a PictureBox (or any other control) as the logical Sprite container for the elements in the game. It makes sense since the control appears to provide a lot of the required functionality already and its easy to extend it with more properties as needed.
The issue though is that Windows Forms Controls are designed to be drawn statically that is, they arent meant to move around in real-time. You can of course move them at run-time, but this is normally an on-demand operation (something which occurs because the user just took an action like clicking a button or menu item). Attempting to move controls in real-time puts a heavy strain on your application and can cause poor performance quickly.[code]....

View 2 RepliesHow To Detect Installed Games On A System
Nov 26, 2009I am writing a application where i need to know which games are installed on a system.I have 3 ways by which i think i can detect the games
1: Scan specific parts of registry and look for key names that match with a List of Publishers. The list is manually maintained.
2: Scan the hard disk for and do same as in step 1
3: run the program in background and check for programs in memory that use a large portion of memory(which games always do) and if they use Direct X ( Which all games do except for some) then its a game.
Now i have been thinking about it and first and second method seems to be in need of a updated database ie list of publishers to make out if a particular program is game.

View 5 RepliesRead A Games Log File As It Is Running?
Sep 9, 2011I'm trying to read a log file for a game so I can extract certant info from it and track my stats as the game is running, but I keep getting access denied error for the log file. I would also like to have the log read only after it has been changed but the event handler never fires. I'm assuming it has to do with the access error. Can someone give me an example of how to watch a text file that's in use by another program and read it after it changes. The code I have works if I open the file in notpad, change it then save it but not when the game is running. I did it once before for the same game but lost my code and there are other programs that parse the log file so I know it can be done.
View 1 RepliesSimulating Multiple Games In Background
Sep 6, 2011I'm trying my hand at a little football simulator, along the same lines as Football Manager (except for Australian football but that's not really the point). Right now I have a code that will simulate a match in a background worker thread and then output all of the statistics and such to a text file. It's all good for simulating one game at a time but I want to do multiple games simultaneously!
This is because, like in Football Manager, I want to have multiple leagues setup so there will be lots of games that need simulating and to do them one at a time would be pretty slow. To sim the games I have a "Match Engine" module which has a metric load of variables and different procedures in it for kicking and marking the ball etc. I'm not sure how I could somehow duplicate all of these variables and procedures at runtime and run them simultaneously in different threads.
