Results for "Volume: 2002C"

This function basically mixes all the pixels in an area of an image, defined by a mask image. The result is much like the invisibility effect used in the movie "The Predator", very cool if you want a small, quick function for that effect in your games! (It looks like the Predator is made of water or something) The image doesn't quite reproduce the effect, I just used PrintScreen 3 times, that's all. It has about 100 frames per second in the real code ;)

What this function does is paint a picture to another one, but with a nice translucency effect! Very cool if you want a small, quick function to use translucency in your games -- something that only the top games you buy had!

Ok, I finally have colors working, I got Ident Server working as well, I started on a taskbar and DCC, just about done.. I want to add scripting support next, If you want to help, my ICQ# is 52567840...

This a pretty cool game that uses Direct Draw, Direct Sound, and Direct Music from the DirectX API. It demonstrates how to create simple character animations as well as showing you how to create sounds when certain events occur and how to play midi files in gameplay. This is definitely a must see! A vote will be most appreciated! (PSC Admin note: Requires Part 1,2,3,4 to work!)

I've had a lot of people ask me how to create "Elite" text or "Funky" looking text, so here it is. The coding is extremely simple and it's commented. No votes unless this really helps you or something!

I started to make a Download manager and wanted a progress bar inside of a report list like napster. So here it is, the incomplete version. I guess i'll post a improved version with resizing the progress bar. And for some reason it adds a blank picture to the first item. i dunno so please help. -Special thanx to Eric

Updated. (Fixed MOD) Add Instant Messaging To Your VB Program (LAN).

VB6.0 IDE Add-In, automatically generates Message Boxes for your programs.

To dynamically create submenu items for both the menu and the popup at run time, and at the same time allowing for free switching between the normal and the columnized menus (and popups), and between menu (and popup) with added bitmaps and without. If the menu (and popup) length goes beyond the predetermined length, the code will automatically sectionalize the menu (and popup) according to the said predetermined length (i.e. as an interval value), and will provide Up and/or Dn graphics to enable navigation between the menu sections.

A demo on how to: (1) Write text onto a background image with user-selected font, size and color, and optionally at a rotated angle, and allow the user to drag the text to anywhere on the background image with due speed and ease. (2) Enable cut, copy and/or paste of a region of the current image, paste an image directly from its file, or copy the current image to clipboard. (3) allow user to drag a superimposed image to any desired position to blend in. Through clipboard the added image may originate from an external program such as a clip art or an art text from Word. Alternatively it may come directly from a file. In either case, user may retrieve it as opaque or as transparent. (4) Resize the picture by dragging its edges, auto-scroll region at edge, etc.

Compiles External Resource Files. Lets say u have 10 files in a external resource file. You want to extract just one, ezy. Soon I will add a peice of code that lets u extract it to memory rather then to a new file/then to memory. but I'm reaaaal busy, so it will be a while. (you probably' can figure it out. but still :) ....) I was in such a rush, theres alittle I have to had. Check back in awhile. (I am busy it takes along "while"). I dunno even if it works. Justkidding, sure it works. But it was rushed. There is no comments in this sorry. But I may add them.

Sizes a form to an exact size. Ever tried to size a form to say. 320 by 240 like this Me.Width = 320 * Screen.TwipsPerPixelX Me.Height = 240 * Screen.TwipsPerPixelY But you want the border and title bar at the same time. And it doesn't look right at all. Heres your answer! (I dunno if anyone has done this before if they have. cool.) I made this years ago, but didn't know of Planet-Source-Code then.

This submission uses APIs from ComCtl32.dll to create a drag list box (a list box that enables the user to drag items from one position to another). It includes a class that will do all work for you (after having been initialized with three lines of code) and a sample showing how to do that. Please note: You'll have to register the file SSubTmr.dll included in order to make it work properly.

This application demostrates the creation of Master/Detail form in VB, VB programmers always felt handicapped by the fact that there was no concept of sub forms in VB but here we show how to create such forms in VB using RDO. Users are encouraged to customize the code to use ADO inplace of RDO or wait for us to write another article in which we will show you how to accomplish the same task using ADO.

Trying to make Fairy Dust, With Particles, it runs good and fast on this comp. (Note: May Freeze). I don't usualy ask for feedback, but it sounds nice so I'll apprecate any. (I'll reply soon as possible. IF NEEDED). Yup, this time it's all commented! (I usualy don't comment/REM the code I make... but I did this time)

API Example : Getting all the windows captions and "hwnd"s and to Minimize, Normal and maximizing a windows using it's "hwnd". (Without having to point the mouse at the window first.) Note: This does not include child windows.

This is a compact code that changes the date of an at the moment hard coded file to the time at the moment.

Made by Oogle originally, I dont want to be rated for this, please dont vote

Contains an ActiveX Card control, which is an ideal tool for creating a card game. Proof of that is in the CrazyEights game I also have uploaded. The computer algorighm is guaranteed to beat you some times. It is worth a play.
