Multi-User-Dungeon help needed

[Slicksilver555]

I am The (Self Proclaimed) Worst user at VB6 ever and althought i know how to do some things like make a web page or have a login screen that has a messagebox saying "Logged in" thats about all i know... Can any1 refer me to a tutorial orr teach me themselfes... if you think you know what a MUD is but ur not sure you can go to http://www.Nightmist.co.uk and under Screenshots thats what im looking for... a simple elaborite Texted Based Mud and it would be a Plus if it were online but if it isnt thats fine too so pleaseeee help

(Clear Version)
Im making a MUD game in Visual Basic 6 and i know verry little... i need help with WinSock, Logins That can be accessed from any comuter (Example im on Computer 1 and i log onto Slicksilver555 now i log off and go on a friends computer (2) now i still want to access my character that i just leveled) a working Registration form that writes to the Database that stores usernames and passwords and help coding things to be used like a short sword does 75 dmg and a longsword does 100.

Any links to tutorials or people willing to make individual Forms and linking them to replys oh and anyone that wants can be an admin (Though restriced at first for security reasons) and thank you Knxrb i will take you up on your offer.

WARNING EXTREME USE OF SMILEYS AHEAD IF YOU DONT LIKE SMILEYS STAY BACK OH NO THERE COMING!!!!!

(This is me in Real Life but instead of waving thats a fist hitting its head :-P)(and if you dont tell me i will be and turn into and be and if you help me i will be and if you leave me hangin i will be )

If Username.text = "Username1" and Password.Text = "Password1" then
Me.Hide
MsgBox ("Welcome User")
Form2.Show
End If

Thats the only way i know to make a user account so if anyone knows how to incorperate WinSock into that please post
ok ive figured out that you use a database that users have the ability to save to and i have that under control so scratch the last bit

I can do a multi-user registration and login script for you if needed.

And i can basic stuff like customizing the page's colours and banking money etc.

It's online and will need ASP and MS Access hosting.

You can get it free from Brinkster.net

[Slicksilver555]

yeah thanks knxrb i have the registration under control and im using my friends SQL that he made for the game but do you know anything else like how to create maps? it would help thanks.

[knxrb]

Do you mean a drawn map (.gif .jpg etc.) or do you mean a dynamic map that changes depending on where you are or what your doing?

[Slicksilver555]

Well a dynamic map is what i need to make and the game that inspired me is located at Nightmist.co.uk it is a free game and if you make a charater on the main server send me a memo with /memo Tmex [Message] and i can show you around and explain what i need

[knxrb]

Ok, so how do I see the dynamic map on NightMist?

I'll make a character as soon as possible.

[Slicksilver555]

What do you mean about how do you see it?
its a map like you type N to go north S to go south, Etc. i need a map like that... and as luck has it someone tattled that i said Dam* (Whoops Dont wanna get banned here) and i have a one week ban so if you have an email can u PM me with it or post it... its faster then this so in a week ill Email you and ill show you what i need... or if you have AIM MSN Yahoo ICQ Etc. i have like evey one imagineable so if you could post we can thalk that way also
Thanks, Slicksilver555

If I were you, I would look into basic Winsock TCP communication and work from there.
Though before that, if you don't know the basic programming logics (for/while loops, if/else if/else..) then this will be pretty difficult for you.
If you want something thats prebuilt, many are programmed in C++ or some might even be on pscode.com.

I am uploading what i have so far some of the code is plagerized (dunnohow to spell that) and is not my code and im using a tutorial for a chat for this so it has captions that say chat are going to be changed soon :-) seeya later

It's not stealing code if it was provided to the public domain (say on pscode.com) AND you include somewhere with the program where you got the code and the name of the author. (At the very least the author's name).

And tutorials I would say fall under public domain which do NOT require a credits, but it would be nice. Now, if the author provided the who code to the tutorial in zip format, yeah I don't think that falls under public domain, but if you went through their tutorial and wrote your own code, then I think it would be fine. UNLESS the author specifics a specific license for the tutorial, which most don't.
