Pls help

First, keep the coordinates where you're drawing in some variables (like PlayerX and PlayerY). Then, allow the player to change the variables by pressing keys (example: if the player presses the Right Arrow key, PlayerX = PlayerX + 1).

Try the Lander Game tutorial, it's in the "Articles" section of vb-world (the link at the top of this page) ;)

thats what i did...just use the getasynckeystate api to find out when the player uses the arrow keys and change coordinates on player.x and player.y (or whatever ur vars are) by adding or subtracting and running the main game loop...

Oh ya.. how do I make the background transparent?

That is all

Try the tutorial I gave you (other people here can give you more links), it teaches you how to do all that including transparent images. 3D is a lot harder, you should start with 2D and only then move on to 3D (I sure hope you're good at maths if you wanna go for 3D ;) ).

Math..piece o cake.. (english...naaah)

Thnks all

Yeah! We should start up 'The Rights For Little Soldiers On Green Backgrounds'!
Free pictures of little soldiers on green backgrounds for ALL!


#*Hmm... Sorry, had a wild and thoughtless moment there....*

How about adding a second character or something?

That sprite is one of the free sprites in the games section of www.vbexplorer.com ;)
