New project? - LearningVB2010 - 09-04-2011

Hey guys,
I'am kind of bored these days and I would like to change that by doing some vb.net/Java Applications. If anyone has a good idea for a project, or needs help, please reply down here, or PM.

Hey LearningVB!
I know what you mean... Before I actually started building massive applications, (Which I didn't know would take 1-2 years) I was bored alot because I didn't have any fresh ideas.

You could create something that... Hmmmm... I don't really have any ideas at the moment either. You can always add me on MSN if you'd like to discuss something though!

Maybe some sort of game, quiz or like a real one.

Well, I think I will do a simple game with game engine and self made graphics or something.


Re: New project? - brandonio21 - 09-06-2011

Oh wow, a simple game engine. Now that would be something I would like to see!!


Re: New project? - LearningVB2010 - 09-07-2011

I started coding today and this is a little preview of it:

This is the map editor(engine)

Its not finished yet..
Clicking on the red square will allow you to place tree's
blue will allow you to place mountains, I will be adding water, more tree's, more mountains etc.

Oh wow! That's awesome!! Great work man!! I can't wait to see the finished product! How did you code this, by the way? (Only if you are willing to release some of the source code, of course.)


Re: New project? - LearningVB2010 - 09-08-2011

Thnx man,
I do have to say that most of the coding is from internet/tutorials, I will show you a part:
Code:
' Initialize Graphics objects
        G = Me.CreateGraphics
        BB = New Bitmap(ResolutionWidth, ResolutionHeight)
        bmptile = New Bitmap(GFX.pbGFX.Image)

A lot of the graphics is based on rectangle's
This is the map generator part:
Code:
Select Case map(x, Y, 0)
            Case 0 'grass
                sRect = New Rectangle(32, 0, Tilesize, Tilesize)

the 32 and 0 are the coordinates of the picture I downloaded, so it will pick the grass texture, out of a full picture with grass, mountains, water, etc.

I will be posting more parts later.

Ah very nice!! I can't wait to see what else you are doing with this project!


Re: New project? - LearningVB2010 - 09-09-2011

I'm working on the movement and the collision.
