Scripting and Reverse Engineering / Need some Visual Basic help.

« on: 2005-10-19 14:11:56 »

SSVegetto: Which version of VB are you using? VB.net?

I know there was a function called "IsNumeric" or "IsNumericValue" or something like this for textboxes in VB 6...

However, as I said before, it's years since I have written VB programs...

 - Alhexx

Yeah it is IsNumeric, the instructor told us in class about it.
Something like this but you were almost right.


If IsNumeric(txtSales.Text) Then
            Sales = txtSales.Text
            'If it is not it will bring up an error message
        Else
            MessageBox.Show("Error Message here")
            'this brings the focus in textsales box
            txtSales.Focus()
            'this selects the string letters.
            txtSales.SelectAll()

I appreciate the reply but there is a problem



if textbox.IsNumeric = false then
textbox.text = "error please insert a number instead"
  exit sub
end if


the part that is underlined gives an error saying 'IsNumeric' is not a member of 'System.Windows.Forms.Textbox'

Anyway I think you are getting close I mean that sounds right.

I got program that calculates 10 percent of a number.

Ok when people enter the number into the textbox and click calculate I want to show the ten percent of a number and that works fine. But when people enter a letter(strings) into the textbox and hit calculate I want to display "error please insert a number instead"

I think I need a if statement but I dont know how it should look, also I want the error to show in the same textbox you enter the numbers in.

I guess this in the calculate button isn't going to work.

If txtSales = string then
            txtSales = "error enter numbers"

        End If

So I would appreciate if someone can help me, because I notice you guys use visual basic on some of your programs.

What the hell?
I am not going to read all of this, for God's sake this is just a forum.
Thats what it is, not many people come here as often as say back in 1999 when we all started out (or was it 2000?)
Lets leave the flaming out shall we, the only guys who need flaming are the ones who pollute the forum.
Thank you and goodnite

Yeah good point, why doesnt the moderator close this useless thread or ban Sad Jari. An other forums moderators wouldn't tolerate this crap and close the thread. Sad Jari is causing trouble everywhere including in my thread he is just pissing everyone off.

And We anrt trying to stop you from doing something

It just CANNOT be done at this moment in time unles you can single handedly decode and recreate walkmeshes, and program new scripted scenes.

alright thank you, and you are right I dont have the knowledge to program that stuff. Oh well sorry everyone.

Well if you have an official copy of the game and want to modify or burn to dvd or whatever I dont see what is the problem for people to help you.
I just think people dont believe that you have an official copy of the game. If I knew how to help you  I would because I'm a nice guy.

Scripting and Reverse Engineering / making a playable CD

« on: 2005-10-03 00:49:27 »

I HAVE done it, but you can't save... I even made autorun screen with Autorun Pro eneterprise.

Suuuuure you have. Seriously what are you on? 2 days and 2 warnings, that's impressive. Advent Children "patch", texture zooming.. what else are you going to come up with?

lol, I'm trying to figure out where he got his second warning. Nevermind I found it, he was warned for correcting someones spelling mistake. I thought it would be bigger then that.

Troubleshooting / Re: Advent Children Patch?

« on: 2005-10-01 19:32:07 »

If anyone has seen Final Fantasy Advent children can someone make a patch so we can play it?
If you haven't seen it, you should try a torrent site, but I'm not mentioning anything because of the rules.
...Or you could read the script from a sub file....
 (no actually I downloaded a pirate).

lol that would be one huge patch. considering patching a movie so good that you turn the movie into a game, this would be a new challege for the programmers here. lol you downloaded a pirate cool, I never knew you could download pirates.

Troubleshooting / Re: Problem when installing.

I run the installer and everything goes fine then it starts getting to the end of installing things and then when it tries to install the phoenix.avi movie it says it ran into the error and it says eather retry, abort, or skip and when you click retry the installer just freezes and stop responding and you are forced to shut it down, I really need help here.

The cd maybe a little scratched, clean it off with toothpaste or something.

No.. I didn't.

That was an assumption that there is a walkmesh for chocobos, and that it is the same, etc. And, it would be pointless to do that. Imagine being in northern cave, and just walking up the cave.. it's pointless, senseless, etc. And, I know nothing about the coding of the walkmesh. Reunion *might* know something, because he has problems with his hi-res characters and the walkmesh in his patch... but.. I doubt that he knows about the coding. And, I'm pretty sure that he posted something about the walkmesh in that thread of his.

You dont understand what im saying.

Sure, the backdrops can be different, but they have to consist with the current walkmeshes.  We cannot create new ones at the current moment in time.

That has to with walkmesh too. Notice the bold part..



(geez, how many times has this been said now??) And, no, Scene editor has NOTHING to do with backgrounds.. AT ALL. It edits stats... that's it. Character/monster def, att, mdef, what items are dropped, how much exp/gil is won...etc... nothing else.

Ok the map part is a whole diffrent story then. I was just talking about mainly the the in game stuff. Is the Walkmesh the main problem here ? sounds like it, if the walkmesh could be edited then everything could be fixed.

We have been able to see one or two walkmeshes, but thats as far as it goes.

Please understand that there is nothing that can be done at this moment in time.

4th or 5th post down shows the only walkmesh we have been able to decode

I dont see anything on that link ?? what are you talking about

Well actually this was discused before.
The game engine is slightly broken with the PC to begin with.
Secondly it's pretty darn old.
Thirdly why would you build on an old engine that has diddly for tools available?
You are better off making a new game was the conclusion.

At least that would be easier

Progress is slow and steady, but it does exist.

Cyb

To make your own game mod thats why. Nah I'm not better off making a new game.  I'm better off making a Final Fantasy 7 game mod, making my own version of my game, making it how I want it basically(using a User friendly program). I believe anything is possible actually. There is probably a way and djzerious wants me to give up on this, and KEEPS telling me things arent possible. I know that is Bull crap, anything is possible and you guys are good programmers that just dont want to try. Guess I'll have to start trying, so Stop Freaking telling me that this isnt possible because of walkmesh< IM TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW To fix the walkmesh part then, but you arent giving me info on the programming part.

Basically it seems you guys dont have the will to do this, thats alright just say that then, rather then telling me something isnt possible. Just replying saying I dont think its worth it.

Use the values of the gold chocobo to get Cloud go past any walkmesh possible. For the background you can use Scene editor.

Thanx for the reply , you just solved your own problem with the walkmesh

To be honest, I dont beleive it is possible.

As stated, We canot edit the walkmeshes, so even if we COULD change the stroy, we would have to use the same scenery.

Oh, and a Walkmesh is the space in which Cloud can walk.

Alright but you can edit the scenes and stuff. With the program new scene editor, I was thinking you could combine the scene editor with other and tools and scripts to change textures and stuff. Start with that and go from there, keep adding things on.

Also combine the other thing that dude had in this thread http://forums.qhimm.com/viewtopic.php?t=4444

There are programs to change 3D objects, textures, 2D images, the music, the text and the stats of the characters and enemies. However, I think there is still no way to edit the walk-mesh nor the scripted secuences. So well, you see, you can edit some things but changing everything is still far from possible.

Alright thats fine, lets start with all of that. walk-mesh dont know what you mean by that.

So is it possible to create a map level and then have Cloud or any character start somewhere ? Or is this what you mean by a scripted sequence,

I appreciate the feedback.

Is it possible that we can make our own mods like in Half life.
I would like to make my own game mod using final fantasy 7 . Is there a program out there making that possible ? I think it would be so cool making a game and storyline and stuff.

alright now I know there isnt just one specific tool do everything like that. But I wonder if we could combine all the tools people have made and make one program that could do this.

One program I was looking at before the

new scene editor. Thats a great start in my opinion I'm going to try to use this. Thanx Lord Ramza for making it.
