I'm trying to make a patcher/launcher for a game. I want it to happen like this. When the user press's the PLAY button, I want it to check if the files are up to date. If they are, then it will run the exe (it will be in the same directory). If I updated a file, say Sound.x, I want it to download it with a progress bar showing. But the thing is, I looked around and I have no idea how to check if the file is up to date or not.

Uhm, I am making a Launcher for a Game Called Cabal, and it will be for Private Servers. The thing is, that it is so easy to Hack/cheat on Pservers, and because the files for Cabal we use are old, we dont have good protection against hackers. One of the things is, that when a player presses CTRL+***+*** or something, they acivate a GM command, which is only allowed for GM's. I need to prevent that, and I also need to prevent people from using Cheat Engine. I am also planning on using Update Funcion, so if a player tries to change the CabalMain, so the Version will change (Which must not happen. If they change it to a specifik version, they can use GM commands)If there is any Anti-Hack out there, which is free, please link it. I have google'd for 1 hour. And more, and just did not find anything.

I am making a customizable launcher for a game.I have already made the launcher. now I want to make a program that can edit stuff on my launcher. A method that Im thinking is make the editor produce a file that the launcher can read.Are you getting what I mean?
There are 2 buttons in the launcher,1 webbrowser and 1 progress bar.The 2 button are links for the users personal website the webbrowser is for the news panel where they can put there news about the game and 1 progress bar for auto updating of the game.
I am using VB 2008,I am trying to make a launcher my private server but, I failed it always say 'This exe can't execute independent" I tried these method
Shell ("Game.Exe") And System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("Game.exe")
I am currently working on a launcher, and it must consist of the following:
- one main routine being called, NO WINDOW may be created at any times after or before this main routine.
- one small form called by the main routine if a certain command was sent through the Command (shortcut).
At this point I use a Windows Form, but it seems a little useless to create and initialize a form if you won't even use it. Any way to make a routine run when my program starts without showing any window? But still make it possible to show that small dialog?
I did this at first but it seems a bit dangerous:
'NOTE: The following procedure is required by the Windows Form Designer 'It can be modified using the Windows Form Designer. 'Do not modify it using the code editor.
<System.Diagnostics.DebuggerStepThrough()> _
Private Sub InitializeComponent()
Main()
End Sub
Sub Main()
'Code to run here
End Sub
It starts another program (process) which has a GUI, so I do not want to display a console window.
I`m making a program.I`d like to know how to make a code which will navigate to my website and find if there's a newer version of my launcher..I`ll search some codes now, If I find some interesting codes i`ll post here so u can upgrade or tell me how to correctly use them for my auto-update.I cannot publish my Launcher unless I`ve an Auto-Update in my Launcher.

I'm trying to make a 2D game in VB. As a first step I'm going to make a playing field (a form) on which I will put a character. The character should be able to move up, down, left, and right when you press the arrow keys. How do I start off with this and what should I start off with learning?
I already know the basics in how to make normal apps with buttons, text boxes, labels and so on but I don't quite get how I should start off with something like this.Also I wonder about XNA and VB.Net. Can you use them together or is XNA only for C#? I found some stuff while googling suggesting that XNA for VB.Net had been released.
When my picHero enter a room where a picEnemy exists I should make the picEnemy follows picHero no matter how it moves up, down, right, left and as picHero is moving 5 px i want to make the picEnemy moves 4 px. I've tried to do use a condition as
Code:
if(picEnemy.location.X <> picHero.location.X) then
location = new point (picEnemy.location.X+4, picEnemy.location.Y)
picEnemy.location = location
endif
Also for the Y axis, but it didn't work.

I am making a simple blackjack game for school.It involves using object arrays and for next loops.I have 5 labels for the player, and 5 labels for the dealer. I have both their totals displayed on the form. I also have a deal, hit and stand button. I also need to follow the rules of if the dealer >= to 17 they must stand and if the dealer is < 17 they must hit. Does anybody have any suggestions on how i can code the dealers turn.I already made it so the player clicks hit and when he/she is done clicks stand. This is my stand button so far:
lblTotalDealer.Show()
lblD1.Show()
Dim itemarray2() As Label = {lblD1, lblD2, lblD3, lblD4, lblD5}
