Sprite Preview - original - 25-03-2008

In frmNewChar, when you select a class, can someone give me the code to show a preview of how that sprite looks? I could do the GetVar part, but not the other part of figuring out which class they picked.

I'm a still new programmer, so mind if i sound newbish.

The EASIEST way possible would be to put the different sprites in a row in a new bmp file.

Then put a picture box inside another pixture box. The picture box thats inside should be named picSprites.

now on form_load, put:

Code:
picSprites.picture = loadpicture(the bmp file)

Now in your class list. Add:

Code:
picSprites.top = cmbClass.ListIndex * 32

You will probably see what happens.
