  1. Here we go, This tutorial is supposed to help you do 2 things: 1.Make your own Custom GUI without touching code. 2.Make a 'Help' System for your game. (I've removed the credit removal part due to LEGAL issues) Ok, Fire up VB, and open up Konfuze.vbp(located in the client folder, 2.7+ its called Eclipse.exe), found in the source(You need to download the source). Pic1: [![](http://xs223.xs.to/xs223/08030/abc1913.jpg)](http://xs.to) Now, On your right, notice MainMenu.frm? Yes, open it. In the menu you see before you, single click on the black thingy. Pic2: [![](http://xs223.xs.to/xs223/08030/abc2134.jpg)](http://xs.to) On the bottom right, notice the properties tab? Change the BackStyle from Opaque to Transparent (*This step is optional*) Now, let's move on to the buttons. Click and drag to make a rectangle on the left side of your Form: pic3: [![](http://xs223.xs.to/xs223/08030/abc3602.jpg)](http://xs.to) With these selected, change back style from Transparent to Opaque. Now individually select a button(To know the button you are selecting, look at the properties tab for it's name.) Change the button places to wherever you want em'! Now Select all the buttons, keeping the SHIFT key down. In the properties tab, change the BackStyle to Transparent! Take a look at the pic below, I;ve changed the positions of the top two Buttons: pic4: [![](http://xs223.xs.to/xs223/08030/abc4687.jpg)](http://xs.to) thats it, the main menu's done Just change the positions for the login menu: pic5: [![](http://xs223.xs.to/xs223/08030/abc5258.jpg)](http://xs.to) Let's get to Our Help System: Create a New Form and rename it frmHelp pic 6: [![](http://xs223.xs.to/xs223/08030/abc13412.jpg)](http://xs.to) After this,change the form's picture to something (800X600 preferably) Also, in properties, Disable Maximize button. pic7: [![](http://xs223.xs.to/xs223/08030/abc14374.jpg)](http://xs.to) I used this, it's not 800X600, but, ….. pic8: [![](http://xs223.xs.to/xs223/08030/abc15185.jpg)](http://xs.to) Change the form's Caption to "HELP!" or "HELP ME!" or w/e Create a new LABEL like I did:(LABELS can be found on the toolbox to the left) Also, edit the label's Caption to make up your HELP text. [![](http://xs223.xs.to/xs223/08030/abc17821.jpg)](http://xs.to) Change the labels back color to White: [![](http://xs223.xs.to/xs223/08030/abc18868.jpg)](http://xs.to) Now create a new button on the FORM: pic : [![](http://xs223.xs.to/xs223/08030/abc20150.jpg)](http://xs.to) Double click this button to enter it's code. Add this: [![](http://xs123.xs.to/xs123/08030/abc21835.jpg)](http://xs.to) Now, get back to the Main Menu and add a new button wherever there's space: [![](http://xs123.xs.to/xs123/08030/abc22478.jpg)](http://xs.to) Last step: Double click this button, enter the code editor, and add this: [![](http://xs123.xs.to/xs123/08030/abc23182.jpg)](http://xs.to) File>Save Project!

  2. Well, I just opened Konfuze.vbp, and VBExpress Automaticallt wants to 'UPGRADE'!! Problem is, After the Upgrade, everything goes Haywire! So, Is VB6 a necessity?
  3. Ok, I just got EE 2.6, and started mapping, but here's the problem: When I use a tile and place it in the middle of the map, it automatically goes ANYWHERE it likes! I'm using scrolling, and do know how to map, since I used to do it with older versions. So, is this a bug?
  4. Ever used the Gimp? Hated it's user interface? Now, here comes gimpShop, A simulated Photoshop environment in the Gimp!! Download here: http://www.downloadsquad.com/2005/10/03/gimpshop-todays-free-file/

Again holding control, select the white area on the right: that portion will get de-selected. pic: [![](http://xs323.xs.to/xs323/08010/51wo10.jpg)](http://xs.to) 9.Now use the plugin like so… Effects>Plugins>Almatehra>A beveller [![](http://xs323.xs.to/xs323/08010/701299.jpg)](http://xs.to) 10.Now, use the following settings:(NOTE:The more the smooth, the more the 3d effect) [![](http://xs323.xs.to/xs323/08010/8qwoq0w9.jpg)](http://xs.to) 11.Click OK and Tadaa….You're done.

  7. Well, Evo is still in it's pre-development stages, so anyone willing to be staff are welcome to do so. We need: 1.mappers 2.Gfx artists 3.Music directors 4.Etc,etc
  8. I mean , I've got Vista, and every time I do something(like rename a folder), It asks me for administrator approval(Note:I'm the admin). It just seems awkward to me.
