I'm working on a small game that I want to sync with the intensity of the music. I have a timer added and I want the interval to change with the intensity of the song playing. How would I go about doing this? I tried playing with Zplay and BASS.net with no luck.

View 1 Repliesmy event in timer goes too fast, i need to slower it. the interval is ok, i cant use sleep because it freeze everything ( webbrowser control ) and it need to stay active not freezing. i tried application. doevents() no result same problem, is there a way to do what i need? its a program that automatically fill a webbrowser form and restart every-time. there no logout button so i need to use setmouseposition and mouse_event but timer do event too fast one after other and if i use sleep everything go wrong.

View 13 RepliesSo, I have two timers. 1 Timer is set with an interval of 1000 (milliseconds), therefore it goes off every 1 second. For some reason, when I set the interval on the same timer to 1, it goes off 100 times every second. Shouldn't it go off 1000 times every second? What's going on?
View 4 RepliesHow can I get a timer to run one interval,one interval only, and stop? Until now I have only used timers to keep running until I say to stop. Also I need a timer that will start at the beginning of, and run until any given process is completed.Upon completion it should shut off and tell me how long the process took. Kinda like a stop watch with a Stop / Start "Trigger".
View 19 RepliesI have an animation program which allows users to import and animate images. I do this using timer events. I have a listbox which contains the image references, and a Image which displays the chosen image. Here is the
When the user clicks the "Animate" button:

I want to make a dialog to appear and allow the user to select a custom FPS for the animation. For instance, if they type 15, the listbox must go down 15 images in 1 second. But how do I convert FPS to a timer interval?

View 5 RepliesHow would you make the Interval of a timer to be between two times.
E.g if you wanted an event to occur between every 7 and 20 seconds?
I am trying to write a simple code that will essentially change the background oclor of a form from say red to green, like every five seconds.(Actually, it will be green 4 and red 6 seconds). I set my timer interval to 1000 and enabled it. So when I write my if/then statements in the timer area, would I be using timer.interval <=4, or timer.interval <=4000 to count off four seconds?
View 1 RepliesSo im trying to figure out how i can change sound playback from head phones to speakers and from speakers back to headphones with 2 buttons, if u didnt get me: [Speaker button]<-- click=sound playback from speakers [Headphone button]<-- click=sound playback from headphones.
View 2 RepliesI don't know much about vb.net so I'm hoping this is something that can be done fairly easily. We currently have a system where valves are fired by checkboxes (representing each valve) being checked at certain intervals and when the last valve is switched the timer restarts in order for the sequence to repeat itself. We would like to be able to have a textbox in the form where we can just type in the interval at which the valves (checkboxes) switch without having to change the interval manually in the code each time we want to change it. Currently in our code we just have a set interval. Here's the code:

I have dragged and droped a timer control "tmrGetMappingXML" from the Common Controls Tab in Tool Box. The issue that I am mentioning also appears for the Timer Control present in the Components Tab in tool box.
In the form Load I have written:
HTML
tmrGetMappingXML.Interval = 3600 '1 Hour = 3600 Seconds
tmrGetMappingXML.Enabled = True
tmrGetMappingXML.Start()
The timer interval is also set in the design time to 3600 seconds. But the Tick event of the timer fires continuously every second.
I have an MDI form, and all of its children have a timer control. I also have an options form where the user can change the automatic refresh interval, which is loaded from the parent. The interval is stored in My.Settings.UpdateInterval as a Double.What is the best way to update all of the timer interval of the Children? Can the Children listen for an event in the parent form (UpdateIntervalChanged)?

my function is to adjust a timer interval according to a integer variable.
Original code (works fine):
Code:
Dim UpdateSnakeSpeed
Select Case UpdateSnakeSpeed
Case currentscore > 199
[Code]....
This is the code I'm using right now. (works fine and is more logically correct than the above case statement. I have chosen to go with if .. end if statements over case, as I do not have a full understanding of what the variable SnakeUpdatespeed is doing in the Select case statement. If someone explains then I'll consider it. Also I know case statments are only meant to be used for 1 option selections, however I'm amazed that it still works in case. Atm it's going to be if end if. Now I'm trying to get the for next loop going with this (if it's logically possible). that's what i'm aiming overall out of this thread. To make a convenient loop.
is there a way to show the current time left of the timer interval( in a label or something?)something like a count down for the next interval?
View 2 RepliesI have been making an online role playing-game in VB2008 and inside the gameloop for the client there is some code that "smoothes" out the movement (instead of it being choppy from tile to tile.) It works pretty well but I'm having problems figuring out a math formula to get a good frame timer interval to set how fast the frames change based on how many pixels they can move per loop.Testing stuff out I found that 250ms is an ideal frame timer interval for 1.0 pixel movement per loop. If I were to double the movement step of pixels by 2 lets say (2.0 pixel step per loop) I found that the frame timer interval should be around 125ms. How can I get the frame timer interval by the movement step of pixels? In cases where the movement step can anything between 0.1 to 4.0 pixels.

View 1 RepliesI'm ready to start adding sound to a 3D game and I'm looking for a decent Free library.it would not require DX and be something like:
dim MySound as SoundLib.Sound
MySound = SoundLib.LoadSound("soundfile.wav")
SoundLib.Play3DWorld(Location.X, Location.Y, Location.Z, VolumeModifier, MySound)so far all Im finding is expensive, C#, old, or not .NET compatible.
I'm creating an application that will have 3 streams of audio. I can get 2 streams playing easy enough using DirectX AudioVideoPlayback and setting the balance for each Audio Instance. However, I need a 3rd Audio instance to play out of another output such as the Rear or Centre. An alternative would be to be able to select a different sound device in the machine to play the 3rd audio stream.

I have this datetimepicker in my application. The user can select the time they want. I used a custom one and this is the code I used:
Code:
TimeFrom_dtp.CustomFormat = "HH:mm"
TimeTo_dtp.CustomFormat = "HH:mm"
I also have an array; a combobox and a variable called: TimeInterval. here is the code I use:
Code:
Dim ReadingFrequency(7) As Double
Dim TimeInterval As Integer
Private Sub CustomizeGraph_frm_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
[code]....
What I want is to change how much the datetimepicker increments, when you click the arrows, depending on the value that is entered in the combobox. For example, if the user has 2 hours in the combobox, the datetimepicker will increment by two hours and won't let the user change the minutes. If the user selects 15 minutes, the minutes will increment by 15 on the datetimepicker.
I'm writing a metronome program (a.k.a. click track; it's used for keeping you in time in music), and can't for ther life of me figure out how to play a sound byte (a short beep) as the beat.
I know I need to place this code in the Timer Tick event, but I just have no idea how to import/reference etc. the sound.
For a school project I need to make a timer with a bell sound that sounds every 60 seconds in VB, I cannot work out how to make the bell sound on the 60th second, I am not getting any errors in the VB console, so I assume that I am just using the wrong code or it is in the wrong place.
Public Class OSCETimerControl
Dim t As Integer
Dim s As Integer
Dim a As Integer
[CODE]..........
There are actually 3 text boxes (not yet coded the final one) one for minutes, one for seconds and the final one is for the bell sound which will not be visible.
I have been asked by a friend to make a basic timer that counts down from 3 mins and 1 mins intervals but at the end of it i have a Critical message box pop up with the sound to alert him that the time is up.i have set it so that once ok on the msg box is pressed the timer restarts..I am Just wondering if there is a way to just make sound for x seconds then the timer restarts without any button pressing?[code]
