> If you understand basic maths then you can make this working at any angle, not only diagonal, horizontal or vertical lines. Yes, yes you can except none of this works… DX8 is crap.

Install as administrator. If not install [this](https://www.dropbox.com/s/h3i0tsgvmyyos04/DX8%20-%20CrystalShire.exe?dl=0). Should work.

Why not just save it and do a hashcheck on login with a record-table? If there is a file that isn't there in the list then remove it. If the Hash is wrong then remove it. Give the record to the player ever time they log-in compressed down and send them the files they request in a big packet all compressed down again..

No image is sent to the client? Then how will the client render it? :o And if the packet gets too "heavy" just compress it down with Zlib. And I like the item linked to chatbox. But what I can't figure out is how do you figure out whether you're hovering over a linked item with an RTB.

I don't know if there any any XML libraries for VB6 but as Marsh said you can use a binary table. [Here](https://www.dropbox.com/s/g375xtywdfwj7cy/Internationalization.zip?dl=0) is an example of loading files and saving them to binary files with multiple "languages". If you need more help just ask. :)

Why check it every 25ms? Why not every second?

Why not just upgrade to DX8? o_o

Either do what Lex said or do this: ``` If bestIndex > 0 And bestIndex myTarget Then call playertarget(bestIndex, TARGET_TYPE_NPC) ```

Have it export as XML like Tiled.

Never heard of a language called C+. Mind giving me some tutorials on this new language?

Get a torrented copy or something. As for the CD key you don't need one. Enter in 0s for the licence key and boom VB6 is installed.

Nope John will be next

> For example. > You can't have a class Network with a constructor that contains a definition for List and another class network with a constructor that contains a definition for List and expect JVM to understand that they're 2 different classes. > > And there are other differnces too, which get into the delegates behind C#, the conveneincy of properly multi-threading your software, yielding your software. > CLR allows you to define new value types as structures (struct) while java has a fixed set of value types. > > and as stated before… 32bit memory allocation You can't have the classes with the same name declared in Java package. But you can have a class called 'Network' and 'network' in the same package. These two can have two different constructors. I think you meant to say two different constructors/methods of the same name with two different parameters like List and List isn't allowed in java. (I don't know if it is allowed.)

The best way to do it would be via your game website.. removes most of the hassle. Most Forum softwares have plugins will allow you to sell items on your website. IPB has Ip.Nexus as an example. When items are bought from the store then it'll be logged in the Forum DB. Just cross check from the server and hand out items.

Both are basically the same. C# is a Microsoft's try at Java.

Or instead of doing it every loop do it every time the window is shown or activated or something.

> But why does it have to be, you could just give it the size of the images on the tileset and let it show them to you like that. The engine should do it automatically. (JC added in GDIp just so that images could be put into Powers of Two and created so that non of this would occur.)

This seems to have been solved. Please edit the main post and mark it so.

> yea nothing taking by it but what do you mean it won't be enough care to explain? Kinda bland. But that's just my opinion. Each person will have a different opinion about it.

Have you tested your code? You're missing two end ifs. Not sure if vb6 will make a fuss of it but you should still add it in. Also remeber never to use hard coded values. Always use variables/constants where possible. Instead of checking if the player access is 1 you could check it against the constant Admin_Monitor. **Note: ** I don't think giving your players a message "Only the server admins" is going to be enough. My revised/fixed code. ``` If frmServer.chkGMOnly.Value = vbChecked Then ' You can use 1\. Everyone uses 1\. If Player(index).Access < Admin_monitor Then Call AlertMsg(index, "Sorry. The server is accessible to admins only.") end if end if ``` Also your instructions to add a form control aren't clear enough. You might want to **bold out statements or properties** names(Caption/Name). Not trying to demoralize your or anything. Just giving you some pointers for your next tutorial.

Great. Btw why didn't anyone notice this was posted in tutorials?

If what Rob last said doesn't work (It should) then try this. Open up the .vbp file in notepad. (Open up notepad and drag the file into it). Find the line which references RichTx32.ocx Remove that entire line. Save from notepad and reload the .vbp. Open up VB6 and add the Rich Text Box Control back again. **In case you don't know how to add back in the control:** Right click the toolbox. The toolbox is the window on the left of the VB6 IDE. Hit components. A new window will pop up. Find Microsoft Rich Text Box Control and click the checkbox. Hit apply or ok or w.e Try compiling. P.S you may have saved any forms that were referencing the control. If this is the case then that form has been corrupted and the rich textbox control would have been replaced by a picturebox. Get a fresh copy of the source.

Have you installed the Eclipse Run Time Files? I don't think the RichTextBox control is shipped with Vb6

Jabaco by itself is a pretty good language. But it's dead. There is not much hype about it. As for that engine Daxter opened up Jabaco used it's inbuilt feature to import a vb6 project. Fixed all the compile errors and shipped it out as a .jar file. If you can fix all the compile errors than you're going to have a good time otherwise I recommend you just go find a Java engine.

Check out some game programming tutorials. The Cherno Project's one is really good. It'll keep you hooked. Be warned though you'll need the basics in Java or any other modern language like C#. I don't suggest creating plugins for Minecraft for learning. It'll just put you off thinking that Java is too hard to program in because of how hard it is to make a plugin/mod.
