Repeat Cards Showing Up In Game And Win Evaluating Code For Poker Game?

Jul 2, 2009

I am working on a poker game and I have the game setup the way I want it in terms of graphics and I have the code programed to deal the cards out exactly how I want them. Granted, the code is very simplistic, but functional for a new programmer like myself. I'm sure there are other more efficient ways to code my game, but I like mine so far because I can at least understand the majority of it. With that being said, here are a few problems and questions that I have.

1. How come when all 12 cards are dealt out I have some cards repeating in the game? For example, I get queen of diamonds in more than one picture box when I only want the card to be dealt once and then removed until the next game.

2. I was hoping to have a button 3 to clear all the boxes, basically resetting the game to the next game. When I hit button 3 it only clears the contents of picturebox 10 and 12.Other notes: I have the deal down the way I want it. It deals the first 10 picture boxes and a second button deals the 11 and 12 picture boxes.

3. I know this is my next step so I want to post it with the code I currently have. I want to start taking my project one step further by evalutating each of the three rows of cards (3 rows of 3 cards each - I'm not worried about the dealers hand (picture box 10, 11, 12 yet). So I want to evaluate a row of pictureboxes against a "pay scale" and display the win in a text box or label next to the 3 card hand. For example, Q of diamonds, Q of Clubs, Q of spades would win 15, etc. ( have a weird feeling I may have to change the names of the cards (I have them named card1, card2, etc. right now) to something that identifies them in order to evaluate the hands.

Here is the code that I currently have. I'm using visual basic.

Public Class Form1
Dim Rndm As New Random
Dim myPB(11) As PictureBox
Dim HiddenCards As New List(Of String)

Setting A Variable To Accept The Result Of A Function By Calling The Function With Many Parameters

Feb 17, 2011

I'm currently working with a client's VB.Net code, which was developed for them by a small development shop a few years ago and which they purchased and have been maintaining and uprgrading since. This client's primary developer is out on indefinite (likely permanent) medical leave and I'm now filling in until they bring in a full timer (as I'm a contractor here). My current task is to add some functionality to a the VB.Net code they purchased. I'm finding practices and techniques in the code that absolutely baffle me and can't make the code do what I want. I'm starting to wonder if it's me and was hoping to get some thoughts on the code I've encountered.

For example: Setting a variable to accept the result of a function by calling the function with many parameters, clearing the parameters in the function, setting them to some value, calling another function with those new values, then never using the values returned by the functions. I'll add a code snippet in the first comment since this is already getting long.

Setting Variables To Store User Setting For Applications

Feb 13, 2012

In our projects we use setting variables to store user setting for the applications. Moreover, with every latest version of the applications, we upgrade these variables to retain user settings.Normally, this works fine, but recently one of my end user reported an error i.e.Configuration System failed to initialize". The error is related to user.config file. Therefore we requested the user to send us his file.After received the folder, we noticed that it contains 3 files (3begfjb.newcfg,3begfjb.tmp and user. config). 3begfjb.tmp is an empty file, while 3begfjb.newcfg and user.config are identical files. We tried to open these files but the data in user.config isn't proper xml rather its unreadable formatted file.Do any you guys had experienced this sort of issue or any ideas how and what may have created these files and corrupted user.config file.

Setting Up Function Procedure?

Apr 30, 2010

I've attempted to use a function in my code to calculate shipping and handling. When I enter my test data quantity 2, weight 3 and price 19.95. The result displayed is that my shipping and handling is 0 but should be 1.75. This is what my shipping and handling function looks like. The name of the function is shipping_handling it accepts a parameter by value and it stores the parameter in a variable called OrdersWeight_Decimal.

Testing - Setting Expectations On Sub (not Function) In .NET Using Rhino Mocks?

I remember that to set expectations on methods that return void in C# one has to write: mockedRepository.Expect(() => mr.AddUser(someUser)).DoOtherStuff()where AddUser returns void.How to achieve the same in VB.NET?

Using Blackjack Starter Kit For Poker Game?

Jul 7, 2009

I'm sitting here with a print out of the class deck, class hand, and cardgameframework from the blackjack starter kit for visual basic and I'm lost as to where I need to go to use the above mentioned classes. I am looking to create a simple poker game using these classes as a base. I'm not looking for anything fancy, just something functional. Starting off I would like to hit a deal button and have it deal 5 cards into pictureboxes and then give me an option to (mouse click) hold any number from 0 to 5. Once I have clicked the cards to hold, I would like the program to deal new cards into the other pictureboxes. If I could get the program up to that point it would be a great place to start. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Has anyone used the cardgameframework before?

VS 2008 - Game Poker Hands Database

Mar 29, 2009

okay, so i'm making a poker game, and i need to determine a winner. what i was thinking, to determine a winner, was to assign each card a number which will identify it. then read all the card identifiers as a whole, and that would identify the hand. i can then use the hand identifier to refer back to something which has all the hands ranked. i think probably and e num would be the better option (simply because it keeps everything in-game) but if something else proves a better option, i'm willing to change.

so basically, i'd like to know if this is a good choice, and if it is, how i'd go about doing it. also, i know there's a way i can automatically create each hand identifier, so any idea's on that would be great.

Two Dimensional Array Poker Game In Visual Basic

I have finally been stumped this semester in my Visual basic course. Mainly because I have to write a program that is started from something that I have not created. I have to create a program that will take in info from the user, then spit out the poker hand that they are holding. For instance, the user will type in 1 for ace, 2 for 2, 3 for 3......10 for 10, 11 for Jack, and then in the next column type in C for Clubs, S for Spades.. and so on. Here is the code I have been given:

Video Poker Game Using Visual Studio - Create Classes?

Jun 25, 2009

I am very new to this whole programming thing and I have read several books and many websites but I can't get a good start on creating a video poker game. I understand that I need to create classes, but have no idea how to start. Most of the things I have been reading have been for Visual Basic 6.0 and it appears hard to understand. I am looking for some type of tutorial of how to create the classes I need and how to get the actual information from the classes into my form. Can anyone out there provide me with a good starting point? Is there any good (and easy) code out there to get me started. I feel that if I can get a good starting base, I can learn from there.

Game - Float Points Away?

May 15, 2010

I'm building a card game called 11-UP. See the game here.I've gotten to the point where I need to make scores show up when the selected cards have a sum of 11. For example, if the card is worth 200 points, then "200" should become visible for about a second and then "float away".

I know I can do this with a timer and the location property. I was thinking of creating an array of 22 timers, one for each card. When the selected cards have a sum of eleven, I enable the timers for each selected card. The timer makes the "score" for that card appear, then move up a few times, then vanish.

Does anyone have a better way to do it? Maybe with only one timer?Also, how could I make the "scores" become more transparent as time advances? I'd like to make them not only float away, but also "disolve."

How To Create Simple Points System For Game

Mar 30, 2012

I am creating a points system for a game, this is the code I have but it isn't working as I want it to.
Dim intScore As Integer = 10
Dim intNumOfGames As Integer = 0
intNumOfGames += 1
intScore = intScore - 2
The user will start will a score of 10, but everytime they click the button the user should lose 2 points off the score. But my code above that doesn't happen, when the user clicks the button it only happens once leaving the user with 8 points throughout the game.

Game Programming :: Cant Figure Out How To Plot Gps Points In Directx

Mar 10, 2010

i think this is the right place to post this.i am just learning vb and have spent the last week trying to figure out directx. im using visual basic 2008. i have installed directx i got it to render a blank screen but i cant get it to draw anything. what i have is a program that collects gps coordinates and i want to plot them to screen. i got it to work using gdi+ but i wanted a 3d view. i want a view like a tomtom(without Map) and draw a line where i have been.

this is what i have for creating a vector to plot i think it is creating the vector ok. when i stop in debug and mouseover there is data in it (ie x,y,z Coordinates). i think it is drawing i think i just am not "looking at it"

Game Programming :: Waving Lines - Beginning And End Points?

Jul 25, 2010

I am designing a game, in which you have to connect some lines, these lines are defined by the beginning and end points. I would like them to wave, yet always keeping the edges on the two points, also, when you connect 2 lines, I would like them to appear to be one continuous line, which contains the beginning, end, and the point of connection between the lines. To do this I've tried bezier curves, with a random point, always changing, but I noticed that bezier curves only works to 4 points, and the line does not always passes through the points themselves...

Build The Shortest Path Between Any 2 Points In This List - Develop Some AI Code For A Game ?

Aug 17, 2010

I'm trying to develop some AI code for a game I'm creating. I have a list of x,y coords and I need help figuring out what I can use/do to build the shortest path between any 2 points in this list. I would like to build a function that I can pass a list of valid X,Y coords to use when generating the path, start point, end point, and have it return a list of points, which would be the shortest path between the start and end point, using the list of points supplied. I have looked at A* and Dijkstra's, but am having problems implementing the algs in code, as all this seems graph based.

VS 2008 Memory Leak In Short Function

Nov 9, 2009

I have this relatively short function, triggered when the mouse is moved over a picturebox. When being called, it slowly increases the RAM and PF usage of the program which never recovers.[code]I just wanted to report back and say that I did solve this issue (more or less).I added a manual garbage collection call at the end of the loop and it kept the resources usage under control. It did seem to slightly slow the response time, but it's worth it to avoid the program hogging multiple GBs of RAM.
