Awesome tutorial, I got it working on my MS4. Thanks. Also, I'm trying to get it to animate itself and, trying to get it so when I press, the up arrow(or any other) it turns that way. Any idea how I could start doing that? |

For those of you who don't have Adobe Reader on your computer and don't want it (I hate the damn thing. -_-) you can use this link: http://view.samurajdata.se/psview.php?i ... &size=full It still works as a pdf, but it's in html format. Still no copy paste.

To make it so an arrow key changed the direction the sprite was facing Search for the arrow key to be pressed in Form_Keypresses When that arrow key is pressed, change the src rectangle to grab the right frame call picSprite_Paint() to redraw |

Love the way you did this  Awesome idea to actually teach the tutorial instead of doing it straight copy & paste. Good job

If it interests me, or it's something that's bitched about often (wrongly, as in this case) I may feel motivated enouhg to do a tutorial ... instead of work on Merrimint

Indeed, that's great tutorial. Not that I just made "Display character" in creation screen BUT I've learned some things as well just because tutorial is not 100% copy paste. Thanks! However, there is one thing I want to point out for others. Code: Call DD_SpriteSurf.BltToDC(picSprite.hdc, src, dest) that is not working, at least not in MS4. Instead of that you have to put in this: Code: Call DDS_Sprite.BltToDC(picSprite.hdc, src, dest)

Thanks for the update, they must have changed that surface name in one of the revisions. |

No worries... I have another problem, or is it bug maybe? I'm not so sure. Well, everything works perfectly, I login, create new char and logout to main menu. I log-in to another account (without leaving game) and try to create new char. When I click to create new char I get RTE "91": " Object variable or With block variable not set" (that happens always when you try to create new char when you log-in at least two times in one runtime. and VB points at: Private Sub picSprite_Paint() Call DDS_Sprite.BltToDC(picSprite.hdc, src, dest) End Sub I tried to unload picture box and few others but I can't figure anything...sorry if I'm silly but I simply can't figure anything out |

I don't think the buffer is being cleared or something. I'm not 100% sure. |

Mouse over the three arguements to the call, and let me know which one is goofing up. Is it the picture box? the hDC of the picturebox? |

| Post subject: | Re: [Feature] Display Sprite on Character Creation |
I mouse-overed three arguments and only on picSprite.Hdc showed "picSprite.Hdc = 33624106" I'm not sure if that's what are you asking for, so let me know if that's not that |

| Post subject: | Re: [Feature] Display Sprite on Character Creation |
What's probably happening is this: When you log out to main menu, the directdraw surfaces are being killed when you go back into the sprite create screen, it's trying to pull from a surface that was just killed. Edit the log out code so it doesn't kill the DD surfaces, and make sure the surfaces are killed when the game exits instead |

Look in Sub DestroyTCP and remove the call to DestroyDirectDraw... |
