  Hi, This code is written in c#.net windows application.

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. GameComponent comprised of other GameComponents

  Hello all. I've been poking around with XNA to build a game. One thing that I wish I could do is use the design-time experience to build a GameComponent comprised of other GameComponents. I know I can do this programatically in the meantime, but it would be really cool if the design time experience for a GameComponent itself was just like a Game object so you could use composition when building GameComponents (so they really _are_ like building blocks). I wanted to do a "sanity check" here to make sure I'm not missing anything before posting a suggestion on the connect site. Thanks all! Not a problem Mitch! I can just embed my own GameComponentCollection in my GameComponent to build it ...Show All

• SQL Server Add space between matrix row group

  I have a 2 row groups in a matrix and I need to add some space between the top one so that all the columns don't run together. Is there a way to do this Click on the row that you want to add the space below, go to the properties window and increase your 'Height' value. Also, make sure that the 'VerticalAlign' field is set to 'Top'. This will add empty space between that row and the one directly below it. Hope this helps. Jarret ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista vista blocks application at startup

  Hi, I'm a software developer and I have a question about Vista. Our application (a .NET 1.1 app) requires Administrator access and we have the "requiresAdministrator" access level defined in the application manifest. That part is working fine. However, our application needs to startup when the computer boots so we have it in the "startup" folder. For some reason (I can't imagine why) Vista puts it in the "blocked startup programs" list and the user needs to manually launch it. This is not acceptable for us. Is there any way to circumvent this problem And by the way, why is there no way for the user to say "I want this app to run every time I reboot so stop blocking it!" On a side note, I not ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. A Question (Creators Club)

  I was wondering this. Since I have a cable connection (no router) directly to my computer, how would I connect my Xbox to my computer so I can use the Creators Club Right now I just disconnect the Ethernet cable from the back of the cable modem and connect the Xbox 360 Ethernet cable to get Live on my 360. Billr17 wrote: Just a side note, its been mentioned that the transfer of XNA assemblies between the PC and 360 is unsupported because of slow transfer rates and the possibility of signal loss. Umm, I assume you meant "wireless transfer", not all transfers. heh. Do you have a link for that I can see that as a cover-your-behind-disclaimer for support reasons because so many things can go wrong in a wireless co ...Show All

• Visual Basic embedded DOS window

  Hi, I was wondering how can I embed a dos window in vb.net What I am trying to do is to have a dos window embedded into a form so that I can have someone fill in a textbox and then I can take what is in the textbox and run it as if I had typed it in from the command line. What I did was I ran it through the shell command and displayed its output on the screen. That works but there is one issue; It returns the whole output when the command has ended but what I need is it to display its output as the command is run, as it does when its ran in the dos prompt. is this possible thanks Hi Dave, the code to load the DOS in a form was great! thanks Can you explain the code with the textbox I'm not sure what ...Show All

• Gadgets Forum issues

  Everytime I reply to a post, I'm given the "option" to sign up for Alerts.  "Options" is in quotes because the functionality is currently broken.  There's a disabled checkbox that I should be able to uncheck to say, "No Alerts for me, thanks!" but since it's disabled I can't do that.  Instead, I have to click the "Cancel" button, which is non-intuitive. Is there any way we can turn off the Alerts question, or at least get that checkbox enabled so we can clear it. Very annoying. Edit:  Just notice the "Alert Me" option at the bottom of the post.  It's checked by default.  Can it be unchecked by default instead There is no way to turn off the Alerts question.

• Windows Forms PropertyGrid DefaultValueAttribute Question

  Earlier I posted the following question in the wrong newsgroup. I am reposting it here since it seems more likely that someone would know the answer in this group. I apologize for the crosspost. ---------------------------------------------------- I am using a PropertyGrid to display properties for a custom object at runtime and have a question about the DefaultValue attribute. I have properties that are based on a custom object - CodedValue. The list of possible CodedValues for each of the properties. As such I have written different <Type>CodedValueEditors that build the list of correct items for the drop down [of course this seems to have broken the ability to double-click the item in the property to change to the next ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Multi threading in a game (using XNA)

  Hello. I am able to create thread and make them exchange information through common objects they know (server / each other reference) Now I would like 2 threads to update a server. Each of those threads takes for inputs a keyboard for one, a mouse for the other one. However, it seems that the thread that listens on the keyboard do not detect events from it. Seems like it is the parent thread that is able to listen to a keyboard event and only that parent thread. How would you do so that a children thread is master over a device even if it does not have the focus Regards, Chryso It is more like separating code. The keyboard / mouse is just a start. Using gamepad is what comes next. And if I want to push it ...Show All

• .NET Development What is the best practice to get the resource file translated into other languages?

  I've discussed with my colleages and we concluded that having translators coming to our company, trying to translate in VS.NET environment is not gonna be working. (One reason might be we are not certain that they won't copy our source code) One idea is to write a small utility to extract all resource files to an excel file and then we can get it translated easily by distributing the excel file to our translators. After it is translated, we use another utility to create language specific resource files. Anyway, I think this also needs some quite a little effort. Does anyone have any suggestion or have done something like this before Or is there any commercial software that can do this for me Thank you very much. P ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Games within a IE brower

  Not real sure if this is a new thread or not, but is it possible to create a game (actually more of a simulation) using the XNA game studio that would run in a browser window Does not necessarily have to actually run from a online web server, just be browser based. Thanks   Joel Martinez wrote: Rick Mogstad wrote: That isn't really the same as running the game in a browser window ... having the control, written in managed code, be able to interact with javascript code (and thus, other non-managed elements of the web page) certainly seems like it's "running in the browser" Certainly, but not in the context that the OP intended.
