Boom! is a particle explosion simulation. It simulates explosions composed of many individual elastic pieces. Each piece also has a shadow, which has a very nice effect when the explosion occurs over a detailed background graphic. Boom! is a fun little side project that I devised while looking for a quick way to put explosions into another game I'm writing. It turned out well enough to warrant a GUI so that the user can tweak the particle properties. There is also a 'multiball' feature, so that you can start up several explosions at once! In this simulation, each particle is an instance of the same class. I used this approach to show how easy it is to create an array of similar objects, each with dynamic property values. It makes for very concise and understandable code!

NOW COMPATABLE WITH VB5!! BUGS FIXED!!! This program creates an alphabetical list of all the words you've typed sice you started the program. It will then tell you how many times you typed any word, when you typed it, and in what window. It also tells you what operating system you're running, your computer name and your windows user name.

Provides the user with a means of validating an email address. Using the like keyword, checks the email address with a specific pattern and will pick up on invalid chars for example, john.doe@.test.com will return false as would john.doe@com.

Calculates the duration in seconds of a .mp3 file. Also displays the associated layer, bitrate, sample rate of the file. I've bundled the function into a project to display how it should be called. This function does not read id3 tags. Search Visual Basic World for 'id3 tag' Much thanks to Predrag Supurovic's page on MPEG frame headers (http://www.dv.co.yu/mpgscript/mpeghdr.htm)

This is an exclusive, screen saver version of the VB Snow program! I have been testing it as my default screen saver for a couple days now, and it works great! There is no config screen for it, but it works just like a normal screen saver should! I added full screen support (640x480), real time rotating snowflakes (done with calculations, not different pictures, real-time mask generation, and all sorts of nifty stuff! I fixed the full screen support to work much better, and added in multiple background support! You can add your own backgrounds in, just edit the backgrnd.dat file! Make sure they are 640x480 also, or it doesn't work well. This new version also adds in support to make this program work as a screen saver! You can right click the .SCR file included in this zip, hit Install, and it works just like a normal screen saver! (Minus the password protection)

ASTEROIDS!!!, pretty big project, full game. Well i finally fixed the annoying bugs and added a few new features. I also shaved the graphics files out of the zip file since they are contained in the frx. I also have the compiled version available at my website in a distributable format, i.e. setup proggy. anyway, enjoy.

The project has two forms. Both displays charts using mschart control for a data from access table. One form displays a chart(2D BAR) for the first record of the table. The second form displays a chart(2D BAR) for a set of records. 1.Both the charts displays legends. 2.Both the charts displays titles for X and Y axis. 3.Both the charts accepts a title to the chart at the desired location. 4.Both the charts displays data values at the desired location above the data points of each item. 5.Above all, the second chart(in the second form)displays bars in the charts dynamically as and when records are entered. i.e., if there are five records, five sets of data series will be automatically displayed. 6. Column labels and row labels are named in the code itself. 7. Filling colors to each data series is mentioned in the code. To summarize, a customized graphical representation of a set of data from an access table can be created by any user.

You can hide/show things You can open/close cd drive (this one works!) and you can change the mouse cursor

A full featured Mp3 player with playlist capabilities. (A front-end for Microsoft's Media Player) An excellent start to a great mp3 player.

Interpolation Antialisa Bicubic Resizing Algorithm Produces close to the same effect LoadImage(..)API, which was resizing an Image to a greater height/width, and antialising it!

This is an example of how to call GetSystemTime Note that it is not 1 millisecond accurate. According to Daniel Appleman both Win32 and Hardware determine accuracy. On my machine it was 10 ms.

simply pops up an msgbox with a yes or no choice below (very simple)

This cool little program demonstrates a basic painting program as well as the hard-to-find dll call for filling a region of a picture. To use the program, all you have to do is draw a line with the left mouse button, then click with the right mouse button to fill the clicked-on area with a random color. Also, as far as I know, this may be the only VB project on the net that has the 'ExtFloodFill' dll call, so make sure to grab it!

This incredible program shows how to create totally realistic fire without using any palettes to create the right color effects! A simple bit of mathematical color manipulation creates a perfectly colored fire effect more realistic and faster then palettes, making for real-time fire animation. The included .exe demonstrates the current max speed of this program, and it will BLOW YOU AWAY! This code is guaranteed to be the FASTEST, EASIEST, and MOST REALISTIC algorithm-generated fire project at this site. If you don't believe me, try it out! This is definitely the best artificial fire program that has ever been built in VB, so don't miss out on this awesome code!

This code displays the text on the line the mouse is over in the tooltiptext box. This is useful for when your text string is longer than the textbox can display.

Program opens text file for input, reads name of files in list, then locks those files. Uses form and module, also shows system tray icon.

The Systematic Buzz Phrase Projector creates technical sounding phrases that you can drop into any report you may be writing. You'll sound like you really know your stuff, the people reading the report won't have the slightest idea what your talking about but surely won't admit it! Could be a good tool to use on pointy haired boss types! I wrote this project for a class so it's not real snazzy, just something fun. I'd appreciate any comments/suggestions for improvements. Please send any flames to: null/dev@efn.org

To register or unregister OCX/DLL controls (1) With prior confirmation of the Product Version and (2) Without using Regsvr32.exe. This code has the advantages of (a) user verification of the specific version being registered; (b) being free from the existence of a Regsvr32.exe file, speedier and a better error handling.

Hi, I'm back. I have updated my squash game so it's more powerful. Anyway, I changed something so the PC player engine is more clever so nobody can beat it. (Maybe somebody can. Though I make the program, I can't beat it.) Now you can control your pad with your mouse. Enjoy!
