    Server Status for Counter-Strike

    Alright.

    I've been programming with VB on and off for about 12 years. I've never gotten into anything SUPER heavy, but I do know some fairly advanced things. The only networking/internet things I have done are server/client with winsock.

    I'd like to create a program that you could input an IP and have it display some of the server information. Every 15 seconds it will check to see if the server is still online, and if it goes offline, it will send an email to everyone on a list of emails. I've got the email thing down, but I still need to figure out how to recieve the server information. Any ideas?

    You would need to understand how the server accepts commands. You're better off looking for a game-specific forum with programmers on than asking here.

    You could also try asking Steam or Sierra, they might offer help as it's their software :-)
    Well, everyone else has been doing it :-)
    Loading a file into memory QUICKLY - Using SendKeys - HyperLabel - A highly customisable label replacement - Using resource files/DLLs with VB - Adding GZip to your projects
    Expect more to come in future
    If I have helped you, RATE ME! :-)

    I love helping noobs with their VB problems (probably because, as an amateur programmer, I am only slightly better at VB than them :-)) but if you SERIOUSLY want to get help for free from a community such as VBForums, you have to first have a grounding (basic knowledge) in VB6, otherwise you're way too much work to help...You've got to give a little if you want to get help from us, in other words!

    And we DON'T do your homework. If your tutor doesn't teach you enough to help you make the project without his or her help, FIND A BETTER TUTOR or try reading books on programming! We are happy to help with minor things regarding the project, but you have to understand the rest of it if you want our help to be useful.
