Okay. I have just set up the server. Created account, character. Woo! Time to log in! UH! Error!? I get an error. Click debug. It's hi-lighting this: Sub InitDirectX() ' Initialize direct draw > Set DD = DX.DirectDrawCreate("") frmMirage.Show ' Indicate windows mode application Call DD.SetCooperativeLevel(frmMirage.hWnd, DDSCL_NORMAL) What do I do??? (it's for build 3.03) |

Make sure all of this is right: Code: Public DX As New DirectX7
Public DD As DirectDraw7 ' Initialize direct draw Set DD = DX.DirectDrawCreate(vbNullString) frmMirage.Show ' Indicate windows mode application Call DD.SetCooperativeLevel(frmMirage.hWnd, DDSCL_NORMAL) |

I used what you gave me and when I log in it gives me an error then hi-lights the first "Public" any ideas? |

Change 'Public' to 'Dim' |

Don't add tutorials you don't understand. Replace: Code: Set DD = DX.DirectDrawCreate(vbNullString) With: Code: Set DD = DX.DirectDrawCreate("")

I don't think there's any functional difference between "" and vbNullString... |

Yea. I figured it out..I have to register the directx7 DLL..and I didn't add any tutorials, 3.0.3 came this way. |

3.0.3 does not come with: Code: Set DD = DX.DirectDrawCreate(vbNullString) Believe me. |

Hmm..Okay. When I get back, I'll redownload...but I also think I know what happened just by thinking about it. I downloaded 3.0.3 before, added a bunch of tutorials, then messed it up the same way. I deleted it, sending it to the recycling bin, download all versions, trying them out, deleted them.now when I redownloaded 3.0.3, it opened the tutorial infested one. So, I gotta permanently delete all of them, restart, then redownload. ^^ |

I don't think he has dx7 installed, When I saw he had written vbnullstring in a later post I was going to mention it but Robin beat me too it ^_^ And Dave, certain things don't like vbnullstring - dunno why, guessing because "" is actually a physical null string, and vbnullstring is just 'I am nothing don't bother even trying to address me in memory' or something similar? |
