I love vb and how simple it is! Been working on multiple projects that usually go down the shitter because I have the lack of motivation to finish them.
But generally I love coding in Vb whats your current projects you guys are working on? :D
Hasn't it died yet?
Decrypting Vb keyloggers made by 13 year olds is always fun.
Yep I guess it has. Most 13 year olds never make the Key loggers. Easiest way to catch them out is asking them what a variable is :3 In most cases its usually [url]https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=how+to+make+a+key+logger[/url]
So many are stolen XD. Or just de-compiling their work. Might move onto java though any good?
That was a joke, it's far from dead, it's just a lot of people dislike it because of its weird syntax. It has the power of .NET behind it. It's far from dead.
If you want to try something else though give C# a shot, it's like java but better(imo) and it also has .NET behind it.

I meant by dead as I dont see many people use it any more. Maybe a few posts on other forums. I'm thinking of using java to have a go at some basic flash games and such. Although I was also thinking of C# i'm looking for something that is not too hard to learn. Maybe taking around 24 hours to learn enough to write useful things.
C# is basically the same as java, it's just as easy to learn.
if you want something easy maybe try lua? It's very popular on this forum and there are some cool frameworks you can use such as love2D.
You should probably check out C# then. It's .NET based just like VB.NET (which I assume you mean by VB, not the ancient Visual Basic 6).
This makes it very much like VB.NET, just with a way more conventional syntax. Hell, you can quite literally translate VB.NET code to C#.

I'm creating a GUI interface using Visual Basic to track an IP address.
Finally, an excuse to dump all my VB stuff I did in high school :v:
[B]Ball Maze[/B]
You're a ball. There's a maze. Not overly complicated.

The levels were just bitmaps, each pixel = one tile. It made making levels super fast and easy, I didn't have to worry about collisions or whatever and I could just make maps in paint at the time.
[B]Some Logo or Something[/B]
Inspired by the gameplay logo. Messing around with some project or something for highschool, reused this later for another project.

[B]LTTP Engine[/B]
Was my final project, made with a friend. Basically it was meant to be a link to the past clone (hence 'LTTP'), but we didn't have enough time to finish anything besides rendering and collision.

(reused stuff woo woo)

You can walk around, that's about it. Random map generation was possible though. It sucked in pretty much every other regard because it rendered on software, not hardware (we were highschool students, forgive us)
[B]Other Stuff[/B]
Less interesting stuff from here on out, no videos or anything.
Obligatory calculator project

Some sort of time-counter ticker thing. You can go really fast forwards or backwards.

Course selection program for my school - the principle saw it and was super impressed and asked we could implement it into the actual high school registration system :v:

Crappy VB pong

A message box that would pop up over and over again every minute or so, related to a LMAO pics post, made as a joke

Most recent, and probably last VB .Net project I'll ever do was this SaltyBets tracker, again made for FP

(SaltyBets is a random mugen versus stream, one character from real life/videogames/etc fighting another)
I've moved on to learning C#, mostly because it has all the convenient drag'n'drop stuff from VB but with a syntax that's basically the same as Java (I like it waaay more than VB's, no offense).

Plug it into the computer and then the keyboard into it and it logs every keystroke. Someone used one in my highschool to get the wifi password

I am currently learning FreeBASIC because i like to pretend I'm a 1980s game dev

I quite like VB's syntax. I use C# though because it means the company will be more future-proof. Same reason I don't use F# (though I like that more than VB and C#).
