Writing A Blackjack Game Program In .net 2008?
Dec 7, 2009
I am writing a blackjack game program in vb.net 2008. The program is designed to play 6 players per game in sequence using a pre existing algorithim (basic strategy). The program will play one game at a time using all 6 players or can be set to play 100 games using all six players and then capture the resulting data generated from each player from every card. When one game at a time is played the program works fine. When the program plays 100 games at a time it drops (loses) the data that is being stored in its string variable arrays.

I'm making a blackjack game for class. Your PlayingCard class totally rocks! I think I said that already Anyway, my board is set up very simply; the player and the dealer have hands with a limit of 5 cards, which I drew as picture-boxes. "sigh" I thought I had this all thought out; the LOGIC of the game was easy in C# console, but applying graphics just adds a whole other dimension to EVERYTHING!
1) Do I need to create an object for each picture-box?
2) How do I tell the program to use cards and their values created in the PlayingCard class to the picture-boxes?
Public Class FRM_BlackJack
'Global Variables
Dim PlayerCards(4) As PlayingCard.Hand

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}

My classmates said I was crazy when I told them I was re-making my old blackjack game in VB.It's actually been going a lot easier than it was when I was doing it in C#, though. I'm hitting some snags, which are commented on in the code. The basic logic is mostly right.My main question is how would I add images to the game? Where would I put them? How would I make sure the suits are randomized, too?
New Code:
Public Class FRM_BlackJack
Private Sub FRM_BlackJack_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)

I am having trouble with a blackjack game I am creating. I have buttons 1 - 13 (A-K) I have 5 Textboxes which when the above buttons are pressed displays the values in the textboxes. I also have one more textbox which adds up the values of the above 5 textboxes to give your Black Jack Total. The problem I have is if an Ace (11) is in one of the textboxes and the Total Value exceeds 21 i need to have the Ace (11) change its value to 1 instead.
textbox 1 - 5 will be the card values
textbox6.text will be the total Value
I have tried......
if textbox6.text > 21 then and textbox1.text = 11 then textbox1.text = 1
This seems to work fine however it only solves the problem of an Ace (11) appearing in textbox1.text so i tried to repeat the code with the other boxes...
if textbox6.text > 21 then and textbox1.text = 11 then textbox1.text = 1
if textbox6.text > 21 then and textbox2.text = 11 then textbox2.text = 1
if textbox6.text > 21 then and textbox3.text = 11 then textbox3.text = 1
[CODE]...
However this does not work and my program freezes?

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 need a small bit of help with my Black Jack game in VB 2005. Basically I have the game pretty much complete seems to work perfectly, I have two counters set up, one for dealers games won and the second one for players games won which both add up the results and displays them in a text box. I have another form made to display Statistics, for both 'This Session' and 'Overall', but how do I save the Overall score??

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?

I'm trying to make a light version of a Blackjack game. The rules I need to use are as follows:
Ace = 1
Normal Cards = 2-10
Color Cards (king, queen, etc,) = 11
The dealer can keep hitting until it reaches 17 or under 21, he must always stay once it hits 17 or over (without busting obviously).
I know the ace normally should be 1 or 11 normally but I don't want to complicate things, I want to get the main thing of the program working first.
Public Class frmMain
'declaration to help generate number
Dim RandomClass As New Random()

On programming assignment without having any real experience in vb. I guess I don't understand subroutines that well. 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. Using VB 2010, and this is windows application.
Code:

I am in the process of writing a battleship game for a final project for school. I get what to do for the most part, but need a little jump start for writing the "ships" class. Does anyone have any suggestions?
So far my game starts with a dynamic array of buttons, but as of now they don't do anything. I need to be able to have the user place ships in places and have the computer randomly generate positions.

My application creates a file by writing to System.AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory() & "data/" & filename...Now this works fine usually, but I just added a setup utility to the app, so now it installs to the program files directory. It installs correctly and creates the data folder, however when it tries to write the file it gets an exception "unauthorized access".

I wrote the code and it runs through it perfectly, the problem is that it will only save it to the database temporarily. So once I close down visual studio for the night and come back to it what's been entered is gone. It's not a published program still in debug mode but I've not run into this before. I have another program I'm working on that I'm running purely in debug mode and it works flawlessly. The code between the two is the same cause I just copied it and changed the parameters. Any ideas? I'm using an sql mdf btw.I should clarify, don't know if it matters or not, that the DB that is working is in SQL server whereas the DB I'm having trouble with is a mdf that I added into the program.

Just completed a program, and tested it. It works, and does exactly what its supposed to do, but I continue to get this error: Cannot Write to a closed TextWriter.The code I'm using is below, but the issue here which I'm guessing would be that in my If statement.[code]'Goes on to create a bunch of tabled XML text.I have this code copied throughout each If Then loop. Basically If the text box is blank then the program will close the table and stop writing.I know the problem most probably lies in that its reading that its trying to close the table or stop writing, but the program forces it to continue.

I am a noob to Visual Basic and I am currently learning it at my college. I have a final project to do and I am having some trouble deciding on how to attack it. First off, I have done a lot of research and I cannot find my answer, so I am using this(post) as a last resort. The book my prof is having me use is outdated, its coding on vb6, and we are using vb2010...hence my problem. I am not looking for an answer in code, but more to be pointed in the right direction, or maybe some classes that I do not know about.[code]...
