| You can work with zip files with VB because the method of packing and unpacking isn't copyrighted. Heck, you can make zip files dynamically with PHP. Rar has a nice encryption mathod, but the packing method is copyrighted. |

Already downloaded it, I just need a DVD burner to install the thing...

I seem to remember reading an article a while back that Vista will have VB6 support. I'd say "yes". |

(Can't quote this, cause my thread on the Elysium forums was deleted on my request) There are much better ways of stopping speed hacks, that's all I really said.

| Maybe I'll just need to add a few Int() someplaces, but that's ok for now. You don't want to use Int() because it returns an integer, which is only 2 bytes. My GetTickCount() function returns a Double, which is 8 bytes, so you would (possibly) get an OverFlow error if you try to use Int(). You coul... |

Add some code for a message box in there and see if it comes up after 30 seconds.
If so, then your problem would be based on not sending the client the new HP and SP.
If not, then you forgot to enable the timer... |

| A great tutorial. I can't act on it because my trusty computer died on me, but reading was good enough right now. So, basically, you divide all output onto three divisions if you will.
