Re: Questions about C#

Re: Questions about C# @28Thank you for the feedback, and I appreciate you sharing your experiences with MonoGame. There are a lot of things that are still new to me, so all information is appreciated no matter how trivial it seems. The explanation about the dlls was very helpful, and I'll

Re: Questions about C# @BoundTo:The easiest thing is to put all the Tolk dlls in the same folder as your .exe file.If you don't like doing that, you can create a config file that sits by your .exe file and tells the .exe file where to find dlls.It must be named with the exact name

Re: Questions about C#

Re: Questions about C# So, I figured out how to get Tolk to actually work in my project, but not entirely. TolkDotNet.dll relies on Tolk.dll itself (if I understand what's actually happening(, but no matter where I put Tolk.dll in relation to TolkDotNet.dll, I always get an "Unable to

Re: Questions about C# @25, yeah, that's pretty common among all GUI libraries that aren't immediate-mode ones. They all send and receive events to ensure that your program isn't gobbling up all the CPU. URL: https://forum.audiogames.net/post/616218/#p616218 -- Audiogames-reflector

Re: Questions about C#

Re: Questions about C# Yeah, that's pretty much the conclusion I'd already come to, was just curious if I had perhaps missed something obvious. I've worked with libraries such as pygame, tolk, etc in python before so I'm not all together unfamiliar with the process, I just wasn't quite

Re: Questions about C#

Re: Questions about C# @23, I didn't say that. You can use a GUI library for games; Entombed does it perfectly fine and it does work. Its just not the best way because a non-immediate-mode GUI library wasn't intended for games. But you can certainly use them that way. Its just really

Re: Questions about C#

Re: Questions about C# Yes, if you write a game you should use a library for a game. Do not use a full-fledged GUI for a game. Use OpenTK or SFML or monogame. If you want a Winforms example anyway wait a while, I will provide it URL: https://forum.audiogames.net/post/616173/#p616173

Re: Questions about C#

Re: Questions about C# Hello,So, regarding keyboard input, I'm extremely confused. I've looked at the winforms docs for the different keyboard events, but I can't find any examples for, you know, actually checking for a specific event from a specific key. E.G, if(key_pressed(KEY_SPACE

Re: Questions about C#

Re: Questions about C#

Re: Questions about C# @14Agreed. As someone who has spent a great amount of time branching away from BGt, so much of what I've learned has been about how things are actually done. I think it would be a lot more beneficial to stop bringing BGT habits into other languages and just learn

Re: Questions about C#

Re: Questions about C# you can port soundpool to bass just like i did and enjoy the exact same way of playing sounds like in bgt. At first i was scared of bass too, but eventually it turned out that it's really cool.As @11 said, there's OpenAL and synthizer for 3d, taking bass out

Re: Questions about C#

Re: Questions about C# @10, pun intended?And no, SPs won't work exactly the same, but BASS, OpenAl, etc all support full 3d Audio. There's no Synthizer binding for C# though yet, so I might write one.You can also use the System.Media namespace and play mono wav files that way. URL: https

Re: Questions about C#

Re: Questions about C# Is there anything even close to matching the sound pools out there for BGT / python for any of these sound libraries? Want to get into C# for audiogame development, but just getting sound to play nicely seems like such a minefield. URL: https://forum.audiogames.net

Re: Questions about C#

Re: Questions about C# i succesfully use windows forms to catch keyboard input. And a form inherits from control, so you can just subscribe to it's KeyUp, KeyDown events. This may be a bit unreliable, so you maybe will need to improvise like i did. URL: https://forum.audiogames.net/post
