Making A Launcher For A Game Called Cabal?
Feb 25, 2009Uhm, 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.

Make A Patcher/launcher For A Game ?
Apr 5, 2010I'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.

View 5 RepliesGame - Making The Map Scroll With The Player
Mar 21, 2012I am working on a game using Visual Basic.NET and XNA. I am having trouble making the map scroll with the player. I can move the map at a square at a time(32x32) but I don't like the way it looks. I want to move at a fluid rate if possible. I want the player to be able to walk half-way through a square then see a half-square to either direction your moving. IE: Walking left, walk half-way through a square then to the far left of the map see half of the next square going to be drawn. But I don't want just half-way, I want to be able to just have fluid movement where you can walk to an 1/8th of the square and see the next 1/8th on the other side of screen if possible... To open this project and view you must have Windows Phone SDK installed can get it from Microsofts website......Note:Only up and down movement have been added into the game.
View 2 RepliesGame Programming :: Making Two Dialogs Pop Up On After The Other?
Jun 18, 2011I can currently make a dialog1 pop up, then the user clicks "Yes" for dialog1, then dialog2 pops up, and if the user clicks "no" instead of "yes", dialog2 reappears again. I've got a headache now, but I will re-look over my code to see if there are logic errors.
I originally had dialog2 and form1 (the form1 was acting as dialog1). But The thing was that I do not how to give properties of a dialog to a form (i.e. not make the user be able to click other windows while this form is open) IF I could have code that says Me.bringtofront (which I have tried) didn't work though. If I apply this command to a form I get an error:
code: Form1.showdialog()
error: Please make form1 not visible. something a long those lines. But what I don't understand is form1 was never open.
What do the standard lines of code do?:
Me.DialogResult = System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK
Me.DialogResult = System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult.Cancel
Making A Blackjack Game For Class?
May 2, 2011I'm making a blackjack game for class. It's been better programming in VB than it has in C#, but I don't know how to link button subs (BTN_Deal_Click or BTN_Deal; I can't decide which one will work) to one another. For example, after the code in BTN_Deal has been run, the program is supposed to wait for the user to click either the Hit or the Stand button.

Making A Chess Multiplayer Game
Jun 19, 2012I am trying to make a Chess multiplayer game in Visual Basic. Its a two player which will be played in a normal way and not even over LAN. So far, I am done designing the board.
My logic is: First, on clicking any square, the click event handler will check whether a piece resides on that square. If not, then it checks if a piece is to be moved to that square. If both are negative, then it does nothing.
Now, the problem with this is, how do I code the click events? Also, I have represented the board using a 2dimensional array. But how do I update the positions after every move? And how do I check whether legal move is being executed? One more thing I want to add is whenever a piece is clicked, the possible legal squares should be highlighted.
For this, what I did was, for every click event on any square it checked if there was a piece. If there was a piece, then it highlighted all possible moves for that piece using If-Else-If logic, but it turned out to be too cumbersome and too long. And another problem which arose was, how do I know that if the user clicks an empty square to move the piece there?

Effective Ways Of Game Making And Graphic Usage
May 19, 2009I've not really got a lot of experience making any games, but currently I've only made small basic games which involve, moving picture boxes with Case (KeyDown) events and timers etc, I've noticed a few problems such as, flickering and jittery movements as it += on to Top or left. Especially when I try it on other computers it varies and is sometimes really bad. I've heard from my lecturer that you can use other things in VB.NET such as GDI+ or GDK or whatever, I'm not really sure, but would someone be able to explain to me what other ones there are for VB.NET or the best method for me to do to move on to more effective ways of creating a graphical interface.
