seeing sprite of new character screen - Fabzy - 15-11-2006

i get a compile error
variable not confirmed

it highlightes this sub

Quote:Private Sub Form_Load()
picSprites.Picture = LoadPicture(App.Path & "\sprites.bmp")
End Sub

i used the tutorial on this forum for this
this error happens when i go on an empty chracter slot and click new chracter

either picSprites doesn't exist, or picSprites.Picture doesn't exist?

Because thats how vanilla MS does it :\
I agree, its a terrible way to do it, but some people don't know better. Although teaching the wrong methods isn't always good either Tongue.

can anyone show me this easier way of doing it ?

It requires some understanding of VB and DirectX, I'm not sure how much you know, sometimes you just need baby steps.

i think ill have another go at the other way but feel free to show how to do this other way step by step if ya want Tongue
