Hi Jim,
Oh, I see. Yes, so what you did was buy JFW 3.5 with the SMA, and never
renewed your SMA with Freedom Scientific. Those need to be renewed at
least anually to be able to keep Jaws up to date with changes in the
software world. If you fail to do that then Freedom Scientific charges a
wop
Hi Thomas,
Yeah, I feel very fortunate that JFW 4.02 works so well for me with Windows XP,
VB6, HJ Pad, Gold Wave and the rest of the software that I like or need to run,
because I sure can not afford to buy JFW again. I bought 3.5 and the
whatchamacallit so that I got 3.7 and 4.0. Well 4.02,
Hi Jim,
Yeah, I am beginning to see the problem. The version of Jaws you have is
incompatible with allot of newer software. It won't work with the
Mozilla products like Firefox and Thunderbird which I like over Internet
Explorer and Windows Mail, it probably won't support Internet Explorer 7

Hi Damien,
If you mean the 2005 Express version no you don't. .Net Express is meant
to be a free compiler , and such has less than all the features of the
pro version.
As for .Net 2003 I used it, liked it, but there are some areas where
accessibility is not the best, and were improved in 2005. T
I have heard that for those that don't like the dotnet ides there is devsharp.
Also there is textpal and ed sharp from empowermentzone.com which are
free and opensource.
I have not tried edsharp but textpal seems accessible.
ONly thing is you probably would have to do all the syntax checks
within
Hi,
The programming language I prefer for game programming (and many other
uses) is Python, not because it is the best for this use (even if it
is really good for fast prototyping), but because I know it well and I
don't have the time to learn yet another language (or use a more
time-consuming one
Hi Damien,
That would be one more reason that I have not tried VB Net. I have always,
always programmed in the Basic IDE. I am afraid that my very old version
(4.02) of JFW would not do well in VB Net. However it works perfectly for me
in VB6. It may not for everyone though. Guess it would

Hi,
Well, .Net deals allot more with name spaces than does VB 6. For example
System.Windows.Forms
is the actual name space that the Form class resides in and if you don't
have a using directive, AKA Import, at the top of your source code the
full path to the Windows Form class is
System.Windows.
Hi Damien,
I don't know exactly what your issue with the .Net 2005 IDE is, but I
haven't had that much trouble with it. All of the code files are
editable in notepad and you can use the Jaws or Window Eyes curser to
read the output Windows and build logs.

Hi John,
Thank you. For now I don't think that my games and code are broken. I hope
that will remain so for awhile.
BTW This is not the first time that I have gone through this with another game
developer slash moderator of this list.

Jim,

Hi Thomas,
Thank you, but I doubt that you would want to look at and try to convert my
code. Other professional programmers have looked at my code and just don't
like it and have said so. It definitely is not written in industry standard
form. But hey I am happy with it and so are the people
Jim,
You're not alone in colliding with object oriented languages.
I do this for a living and the transition was ugly at first.
Many of your best practices as a structured coder are exactly the opposite
from O O best practices.
There are advantages to O O coding. But I think you're right: if wha

It sounds like you got it. Basically, a person, dog, cat, etc are all
objects in a real world. they are person, places, and things in programs.

pant, etc right? What you do is program a class for a dog which contains
Hi Ken,
Well, C# .Net is as different from C as an apple is from an orange. C#
.Net, called C-Sharp, is a 100% pure object oriented language where
clasic C was not object orientedat all. In eddition C# .Net is much
smaller in size, requiring less key words, and all you need to program

Hi Jim,
It's too bad I've had too much time on my hands lately, but what would
be nice if I could convert one of your games to VB .Net, comment it real
well, and then you could use it as an example for future games.
you could use that game example to see how things are done in Visual
Basic .Net,

Hi Thomas,
Thank you again for trying to explain object oriented programming. I just
don't get it. You know 33 years ago when I drew up my first flow chart and
later turned that into if, then, goto, gosub, return, open, print, close, get,
put, input, peek, poke and stuff like that, that is wh
Hi Davy,
I certainly can agree with you regarding C++ verses Visual Basic for
game programming. I've never been exactly fond of Visual Basic's need to
word everything such as End If, End Loop, End Function, but I am
thankful at least the IDE is good about autocompleting and filling in
that stuf
Hi Jim,
I don't think being self taught is really the problem. I just don't
think the concept was explained to you in down to earth language. There
is nothing difficult about object oriented design, but is a bit mor
abstract than structural design.
In OOP, object oriented programming, you progra
and such stuff.
Hope you've enough info now.

Hi Tristan,
I very much like programming my games in vb6. I program in vb6 just as I did
in Quick Basic and very close to how I did in GW Basic, BasicA and the other
Microsoft Basic languages before that. You know like on my Atari 800 XL and
the Texas Instruments 99 4A before that.

Hi Tristan,
I prefer to use C# .Net 2005 which looks similar to C++, but allot
simplar to program, and has better documentation and better DirectX
support than newer versions of Visual Basic such as Visual Basic .Net 2005.
