And it just gets funnier and more relevant every time.

anyone else willing to help with the transl33tor class? I am stumped with the word lists not as external files. The code should be simple enough to substitue the word with one of 3-4 (randomly selected) words. I have been able to read the files, but was stuck when I found that files were to be internal.

I am willing to share the credit for the work that I did, but I haven't ever even made a class in vb.

I wouldn't bother if I were you, its getting old now anyway.

Build 1 hitting the virtual shelves this weekend.

I've allowed a certain amount of Chit Chat in this thread but please try to keep it to a minimum.

Sorry didn't even notice this wasn't in chit chat...

I'll stop:(

I only got interested as a way to learn l33t, and got volunteered to do the class, even though I had no experience, and very little time. Oh, well...

The moment some of you have been waiting for (or dreading)...

No source, no documentation, have fun. :D

There are a few sample project to get you started.

Bug reports to me or Mendhak please.

I'd like to float an idea for a website here.

Something like www.sandpaper.tk, www.sandpaper.com or sandpaper as a subdomain, such as sandpaper.mendhak.com, or even mendhak.com/sandpaper.

I have webspace if required.

We would obviously be writing 'brilliant' content for it... so that everyone knows it'll solve all problems... ;)

Has anyone tried it yet?

Gimme some feedback.

I dont have VB.net :rolleyes:

tried it, but can't get the projects to work since I'm an utter idiot when it comes to adding references.

Hi The Dutch Dude

Just remove the sandnet reference and add it back, using the browse buttton.

Woss ,
the sandpaper has some useless classes :afrog:

Except for analogic clock and SandWatch which is probably based on QueryPerformanceCounter...

Hi Bod
You dont need vb.net only the framework use vbc.exe to compile the samples.

I don't see you contributing any code to rectify that do I? :D

The joystick class is particularly handy if (like me) you have no idea how DirectX works, the SandWatch is, as you pointed out, built around the QPC. ConsolePal is not useless though.

I realised that the EleventhCommandment might seem a bit unhinged but then so am I :D

Still only a small library but I'm thinking up a few more ideas for the next build.

I am only rating of the samples you included there no joystick samples...

I'm not going to the Sandpaper Query Language... suggest something simplier

Well, talk about karma. I get .Net in the mail, and find out that sandpaper is the .Net version. I guess I have a reason to install .Net, after all. It just got bumped up on the list of things to do...

You'll soon see how laughable VB6 really is. :cool:

Anyway, I've started on the documentation. Should be ready soon.

BUG KILLED!

I just found and destroyed a big bug in the RadixConvertor class, which was trimming zeroes off both ends of the input values! :blush:

God, that is soooo n00bz!11!!1111!!!

Hey ho hey ho!

http://sandpaper.mendhak.com/

I would like to help as Dave got no time for the translator class. I would like to know the details about this class. Perhaps I can help.

Mend, nice img by the way.

Well, you can help with the l33t class... it mainly involves the replacing of words and characters with their corresponding l33t versions.

I've posted a link earlier in this thread to a wikipedia article.

taht pwnz.

Check PM Inbox.

The site would need to be equally... sandpapery. Good words would really make this mysterious yet alluring I hope. :)

YEESSS!!!!

The MessageBox problem has been fixed. Wow... I love and hate reflection at the same time. Here is the change:

VB Code:

Dim executing_assembly As System.Reflection.Assembly = New SandpaperProject.MessageBox().GetType.Assembly.GetCallingAssembly()

I had been doing .GetEntryAssembly all along, which is why the image never showed up.

I will post the corrected .VB file later. The only thing you need to do is replace the existing .VB file, let the images remain. Hope you remembered to compile them as "embedded resource."

Attached is the RudeMessageBox, corrected!

I've assumed that SandNet will be the assembly name here (assembly name matters in the image retrieving function). If it's not going to be so, change it.

Also, the images can be placed in a separate folder as shown in the ZIP file without having to change the code. So simply create a new folder under the SandNet folder called RMBImages and put the images there. sw33t!

The requisite RudeMessageBox sample:

Do you want to add it to the project (the copy I sent you a while back), and then when you are happy the sample's running OK, send it back to me.

Copy your sample folder into the main folder where the other ones are and then open the SandNet.sln and add the sample project to the solution. I think that should do it.


(ps. check your PM's)

OK, but I can do this on Monday. Not at office at the moment, got all days off till Monday. :-)

I've still not installed .Net, but have gotten a lot closer to finishing my VB app. Hope to get to sandpaper in a few weeks.

I don't understand how you can resist installing it. Vb6 is a baby rattle compared to .Net big stick with nails in.

Sample attached to project, but is too large to upload. (617 KB), so I've emailed it to woss. Woss, check your junk mail folder. :lol:

pwnage.

I'll sort out the raw file rejiggamaflip tonight.

This still going?

You bet! Sandpaper drives us!

Got something you want to add?

Whoa there Mendhax0r, this dude is a mod, do we really want to set a precedent and allow such a person to take part in The Project?

I dunno. Seems a bit risky to me, Heman was a big washout, him too big fo us small timers. Dunno if I can trust a mod again. Hmmm.

Just got your email btw. I'll integrate your changes with my version. I had to alter RadixConvertor to add essential new features (ie. make it work :lol: ).

My bloody work email refuses to send encrypted attachments to my home addy. So I'll have to post Prawn here tomorrow and collect it tomorrow night.

C@p1t@ am teh sux0rz!!1111!!!!!!oneoneelevenThirtyoneinbinary!!11!

I must have missed a post. What's prawn all about?

Working to get the VB6 project out for BETA-TESTING. It should be the start of something *BIG*. That will allow time to install/learn .Net, as well as finally get W2003 up and running.
