Full Screen DirectX : Developer's Corner

How to get the VB window appeared over the full screen DirectX application?

Any solution is welcomed, .xml, .dll or anything.

You cannot show the vb window directly. You have to use the XU .xml interfaces. If you download some of the sample code, you will see what I am talking about.

Thank you very much for the prompt reply.

I am newbie to this site. Can you show me the link? Thank you very much

All plugins are required to have sourcecode to be listed in the plugins section. Click on the All Forums button above. Then on the XUnleashed Downloadable Plugins and Services. In that forum, you will find several plugins that you can choose to browse and look at the sourcecode.

I could not believe on how prompt you are replying to me.

Well, I have seen many plugins, but now I am confused. Do I need to pay for that?

Another problem is that the message is too technical for me as a business player.
Any suggestions? I just want to show a simple window

Okay, I will read it and decide by tommorow whether to subscribe or not.

Are you available 24 hours?

So basically, my problem is solved right? but well, I have implemented a VB application, can I embed it?

Not exactly. We are adding more and more of the internal vb controls, not all controls are supported at this time. We have buttons, checkboxes, one line edit boxes, statictext, and a listbox(limited). We will be adding more, but these are on a request/priority basis.

Some vb applications are very easy to convert, some are more difficult. What exactly do you have, and what does it do?

Thank you,

I have one VB application that is used to register at PayPal

Is that possible?

I would probably say yes, if the visual controls are simple. Ie, edit boxes, static text, buttons, etc. . . as stated above.

You will have to make some minor changes, to include an interface that is used for XU to interact with your plugin. There are examples in the plugins forums on how to create a basic plugin.

The only thing you have to be careful of are functions that take a long time to process. Ie, your game screen will freeze while it is processing. Now, to get around that, you can put the function into a background process, again, there are examples in the plugins forums on how to do that also.

I hope that helps.

Thank you.

Well, it contains simple components as you said but it also contains many modules. Will that affect it?

Can you tell me in more detail how should I do that?

I am willing to pay more to you if you can tell me in very detail on how to do it perhpas by being the member of this site (premium member).

Emmm, can you direct me which plugin should I see (the name)? I am sorry but I am totally newbie to this area and environment.

Take a look at some of these:

Out of curiosity, what exactly woudl you want your plugin to do?
