    Question

    Hello, all.

    I would just like to ask if there is anyone here who could help with an RPG that I'm planning to make. I am completely new to VB, so any help will be extremely appreciated.
    I am not a bowel.
    NON SVM BOVELLVS.
    Je ne suis pas des entrailles.
    Ich bin nicht ein Darm.
    No soy un intestino.
    Chan eil mi innigh.
    Ik ben niet een organenstelsel.
    Jeg er ikke en tarm.
    Jag är inte en tarm.
    Я не кишка.

    Can you say it in another language?
    If so, don't hesitate to tell me!

    Here is a list of some basic things you need for a simple RPG.

    • The Engine. [runs the maps created with the map editor]
    • The Map Editor. [Creates maps for you to play on the engine]
    • Graphics [The graphics for the game]
    • Music [Music that plays continously when the gamne is running.]
    • Sound Effects [ When you get bonus points or get hit etc]


    For starters, you can create the music with MIDI, the Sound Effects with WAV, and the Graphics with Bitmaps.

    I think a RPG is a hard choise for newbies, in vb. You could have a good use of classmodules to structurize your game, if you need to make your game advanced enough.
    Use
    writing software in C++ is like driving rivets into steel beam with a toothpick.
    writing haskell makes your life easier:
    reverse (p (6*9)) where p x|x==0=""|True=chr (48+z): p y where (y,z)=divMod x 13
    To throw away OOP for low level languages is myopia, to keep OOP is hyperopia. To throw away OOP for a high level language is insight.
