I was thinking about making an interactive computer survival game, such as the Rainbow Survival levels in Little Big Planet. I was wondering if there was a tool i could use to create the objects, such as the character, explosives, bombs, and point bubbles. i know how to make all the objects move, i just don't know how to create them to begin with, is there a certain tool in Visual Basic 2008 i could use?

When the program runs it never goes to the computer's turn and does not update the users score either. This assignment is already in but would like to know what is going wrong.

View 5 RepliesI 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 RepliesI 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
I'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.

I 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?
I am using Visual studios 2010, And what I am trying to do is make a card game, and I have some ideas for how to put a lot of it together however I am having trouble getting started with making the cards to begin with.So I need something to call to represent the cards with numerical values with ace being 1 and king being 13.

I'm doing a pacman game and im stuck on how to make the pellets. This is the code i have so far.I was thinking of maybe making a picturebox for every pellet and then make an if statement that if pacman goes on a pellet it disappears and he gains a point.

View 3 RepliesI am making a crosshair(for a game) which needs to be absolutely topmost!//. This can only be done if the form's topmost property is true, and the next second false, and then true...etc..
But is there a possibililty to make sure your form is absolutely topmost.. Or make another program/application not topmost so that yours is.
My questions is only about the topmost not about the rest of the application because I have made everything already.
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.
