CoonHunter Posted May 18, 2010 Author Share Posted May 18, 2010 I want to start editing the client's source-code so I can change around the GUI a little, my problem is not figuring out the code, but finding a program that will compile it back to a EXE file. What do you suggest?EDIT: I am running Windows XP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admiral Refuge Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 You need Visual Basic 6.0, and to open the client's project file (Client.vbp, I think). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the tip, now i can change this thing around :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demon xxx x Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 I can find you a decent .torrent for VB6 if you'd like, give me a PM and I'll send it.(Not allowed to post the link here, against forum rules) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoonHunter Posted May 19, 2010 Author Share Posted May 19, 2010 Is there another program that will do it? It seems every copy of visual basic 6.0 i find, will not install on windows Xp. Yes, i have tried the 'run in compatablility mode for' setting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 No, this isn't like C++ where there's multiple compilers.VB6 is VB6\. You can only use that copy of it. They should install fine on XP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoonHunter Posted May 19, 2010 Author Share Posted May 19, 2010 One of the copies I had gotten was from Microsoft.com, thats why I was asking. I will continue to look, but do you happen to know one that will work on windows XP? The ones im finding are Windows 95-2000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 You'll have problems trying to install it onto a thumb drive.Just install it normally on your PC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoonHunter Posted May 19, 2010 Author Share Posted May 19, 2010 @Robin:> You'll have problems trying to install it onto a thumb drive.> > Just install it normally on your PC.Normally i would agree with you, but my current laptop is a 2002 Toshiba Satellite 1115-S103, with only a 20GB harddrive. My harddrive only has around 1.2GB left of space, but i have around 10GB of things installed on thumb-drives as well. Trying to keep my harddrive space from dropping below 1.2GB to result in loss of speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 Well it's a choice between having a working copy of VB6 or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoonHunter Posted May 19, 2010 Author Share Posted May 19, 2010 @Robin:> Well it's a choice between having a working copy of VB6 or not.Well after about another 5 different copies i attempted.
