Way To Allow Mouse Scroller To Work?
Is there a way to let my users use their scrolls on their mouse (if they have a scroll mouse) to do things in my program, like zoom or something? How would I let them use their mouse scroll?

Mouse Clicking Won't Work On Hyperlinks
The program I am writing will simulate mouse clicks in a browser window. The simulated mouse clicks work correctly for many parts of the page/browser, such as the address field, but when I try to send a mouse click on a hyperlink it does not register. Any advice would be appreciated. Here is some of the code I am using.
Const WM_LBUTTONDOWN = &H201
Const WM_LBUTTONUP = &H202
Const MK_LBUTTON = &H1
public Type POINTAPI
x as Long
y as Long
End Type
Dim Pointabc as POINTAPI
'the following code sends a mouse click to the current mouse cursor position
'MouseMod is a module that contains API functions such as GetCursorPos
If MouseMod.GetCursorPos(Pointabc) then
hwnd1 = MouseMod.WindowFromPoint(Pointabc.x, Pointabc.y)
End If
TempPoint = LShiftWord1(Pointabc.y, 4)
TempPoint = TempPoint + Pointabc.x
PostMessage hwnd1, WM_LBUTTONDOWN, byval CLng(MK_LBUTTON), TempPoint
PostMessage hwnd1, WM_LBUTTONUP, byval CLng(MK_LBUTTON), TempPoint
Mouse Scroll Wheel Won't Work In VB Editor
My mouse scroll wheel works fine in every other application, but when I try to scroll through the code in the MS VB editor: nothing. I can even scroll thru the VB project explorer in the MS VB editor no problem.
What's up with this? This happens on my home computer, too.
I also just got a new comp and never had the scroll issues on the old one. Noticed it with the new comp, though.
Mouse Click Does Not Work On The Rich Text Box
I am using the RichText box for the output of my prog.
When I tried to highlight it and COPY the output, THE MOUSE DID NOT work.
When I used a Regular textbox I did not have to do anything it automatically works.
for ex: I want to be able to use the LEFT mouse to hightigth and COPY, or Paste like the textbox. AND USE
THE RIGHT MOUSE TO DELETE OR PASTE??
HOW DO I DO IT?
thanks,

2d Side Scroller
Hello all, long time no talk!
I am in the midst of my design doc for a 2d Side Scrolling game, like Super Mario (just a learning game for myself) and came upon some stuff I'd like to see if I could get some help with. Since I am trying to learn this stuff, I'd rather not have someone give me code, just kinda nudge me in the right direction with how to do some stuff.
I searched the forums for information on a map editor - but I don't see someone doing the same stuff that I wanted to do. I don't think I need to do tiles or anything, unless I'm wrong. I need to write a map editor (or level editor would be more correct I guess), and was thinking "Should I just save it as a bunch of text, or binary or something, and parse it into useful information on runtime? Or am I looking at this completely wrong, maybe there's a better way to write a level."
I appreciate any help you guys can give!

About Side Scroller AI's.....
Even though the first one didn't look good, I took the suggestions of people here and made a new side scroller, with a bigger screen, better graphics, requiring less memory and scrolling at 100 FPS (thanks BillSoo ).
However, since I'm an RPG man going into an unknown world, I've ran into a small problem. The AI in my RPG's just pick a random guy, or sometimes look for the weakest character in your party, no big deal, just some simple coding. However, I'm wondering on what an efficient way of doing AI for a fighting game. Should I just make them move closer to you, fighting when they're so close, which is the basic method, or does anyone have an idea for some kind of idea to make it have variety, so that different guys have different methods of attacking your character?
I'm thinking right now that I'll just always have two guys on the screen who try to pincer you, which is a pretty simple sub routine.
The game is sort of like the last (well, what I have done so far), except the character can walk all over the bottom half of the screen (It's another street scene, and about halfway up is where the sidewalk ends).
Thanks for reading,
Ed

Side Scroller
I have just started working on my final project for visual basic at my school. the final project is a full feature game in vb, i chose a side scroller space shooter kinda thing. so i have the background that scrolls and all but due to the size of the image when i load the program it takes well over 30 seconds to load the form. i was wondering if there was a way in which i would be able to cut down load time, all the graphics in my game are done using bitblt or stretchblt and the image that scrolls on my form is a hair over 2 megs.
any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Picture Scroller
Hi Everyone,
I have an idea here but I am not sure how to accomplish it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Anyways, here is the idea. I want to set up a picture scroller whereas there is a combo box and an image box on a form. The combo box is filled with a list of items, for example, car, basketball, boat, toothbrush, etc. When an item is choosen from the combo box list I want to have the corresponding image shown in the Image Box. I was thinking about putting the images into an ImageList, but am not sure if this will work. Any ideas on how to accomplish this? Thanks for any help.

Organizing A Side Scroller
I'm trying to make a simple sidescroller so that I can learn the following:
- Making a character move left and right
- Making a character jump
- Collision Dectection
- Building a Map
I've searched through the forums and found answers to most of those things, but what I haven't really come upon is how to organize things.
The game is going to use bitblt. Right now I have a form called frmGame that is going to be the form on which the game is played. That form has a Game loop which at the moment only checks for keydown. I also have a module that contains has the declaration for the bitblt function.
Right now the problem that I'm having is how to get everything to work together. I've learned various bit of code, like how to do collision, how to do movement, but I don't really know how to put it all together. Any suggestions, or examples?
Graphic Method For Scroller
Hi everyone.
I'm working on a game in VB. I want it to be a scroller (not just a side scroller, I want to be able to scroll in every direction). This is my first time working on a project of this kind.
The main engine (game rules, characters and map) are almost finished but I haven't started implementing the graphics.
My question is, what kind of graphic methods are there to implement something like this? I know this can be done using DirectX (which I know nothing about, so I'd rather not use), or BitBlitting (which I know little about, but I think this is what I'm going to do), or with a picture box within a picture box (which I know very much about, but I've tried and the results are disastrous). Are there any other methods I don't know about? Is BitBlitting really the best way to do this (considering I want to avoid DirectX)? Is DirectX better and not to hard to learn?
Also any links with good tutorials or examples will be appreciated.
Thanks a bunch.

Loading Controls To A Scroller
Guys
I have a 'MB Scroller Control' which I acquired a while ago from vb2themax. I hadn't used it until now and I'm having a little problem.
If I place controls onto the scroller at design time and resize the scroller control to be smaller than the collection of controls placed on it (if that makes sense) then the scroll bars on the control work fine.
The problem comes when I am loading the controls onto the scroller at run time. I don't think the scroller control knows they're there so doesn't display a scroll bar.
Any ideas how I should tell the scroller control that the controls loaded onto it are larger than it is itself?!
This is the control, by the way.
Thanx

Textbox Letter Scroller (PLEASE HELP!)

Howto: Credits Scroller
No prob...
if you don't use End to finish the prog, VB calls all Class_Terminate events anyway.
But it's sloppy to trust vb to do it for you, it's better to do it yourself.

Tile Game + Side Scroller
Hey,
Ok, I want to make a game resembling Zelda. I created an array of 100 picture boxes for tiles and wrote a map editor so that I can create maps for it. It all works beautifully and it is so easy to do. I have 2 things that I don't know how to go about implementing. I want my character to look like it is walking. I will have 3 frames for each direction (standing, left-leg forward, right-leg forward). The thing is, I don't want the character to move a whole tile when he walks. It should take all three frames to cross a tile. If I can figure that part out, then it would help me later with the collision detection so that you can start to walk onto a tile but can't go all the way (like a tree in the middle of the tile, you wouldn't want to have to stop on the square edge of the tile not even close to the tree). So does anybody know how I would go about breaking the walking animation into steps across a tile? If possible, without a timer. The second question is about moving to the next screen. I don't want to walk to the edge of the screen and then it jumps to a new screen. I want it to scroll in the direction I am moving, drawing only the tiles that need to be visible at a time. So like a side-scroller but It should scroll up, down, left, and right. I guess you would need to know a little about how my map editor works. Each tile (tree,rock,ect) has a number. The map editor is visual but when I click "Create Map" it figures out which tile is where and saves all the numbers to a file. Then my program retranslates it to the tiles again. There is a 100 numbers in one of my map files (*.txt). Do you think there is a better way to implement the map process so it will work better for the multi-directional scrolling. Oh yeah, this game is 2D looking from an over head view. Ok, I have asked to many questions. Thanks for reading this.
