7soccerbo7 Posted March 4, 2009 Author Share Posted March 4, 2009 **Eclipse.net*** * *I've started a version of the eclipse engine using vb2005.The Idea is to program it with software that is free soanyone can help, not just people who have vb6.It uses XNA Game Studio so png transparency will work. It also can be played full screen.You can download vb2005 from the Microsoft website.

Admiral Refuge Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 I'll be keeping an eye on this one.Sadly though, once Microsoft stops supporting vb2005 (I currently use 2008, which is I'm not sure is compatable) like this did vb6, this will be outdated as well =( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gwen Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 2008 is free also isn't it? Or is that just the trial version?I know you can download the trial from ms and unlock the full version with a key Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 HM is saying that, it takes more than opening sockets and rendering images to a screen using XNA. Also, if you are going to re-write the engine, remove the max values system. Make all the objects dynamic to automatically handle for what it needs. That way you can actually manage all the instances like items and etc without assigning more than you need. This was a design issue with Eclipse that we are changing for 3.0\. Also, I wouldn't really do a direct translation either or it will be unstable… Also, your not really showing that the server and client are connected and communicating, so how do you know its 100% perfect already?
