Hello

I'm experimenting a little bit with visual basics, as we have to learn the basics for school (but i'm going much further of course xp hmm, or maybe i want, but it won't work) and i'm stuck

i'm trying and trying to get the saveDialogBox working, but everytime i want to create a new file, it gives an error and quits the program.. here's the code:

    Private Sub ToolStripButton4_Click(sender As Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles ToolStripButton4.Click
        SaveFileDialog1.Filter = "Nspire Lua files (*.lua)|*.lua|txt files (*.txt)|*.txt|All files (*.*)|*.*"
        SaveFileDialog1.FilterIndex = 2
        SaveFileDialog1.RestoreDirectory = True
        SaveFileDialog1.CreatePrompt = True
        SaveFileDialog1.OverwritePrompt = True
        SaveFileDialog1.ShowDialog()
        SaveFileDialog_FileOK(ToolStripButton4, AcceptButton)
    End Sub

    Private Sub SaveFileDialog_FileOK(sender As Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles SaveFileDialog1.FileOk
        Dim myStream As IO.Stream
        Dim SaveName As String
        ' If SaveFileDialog1.ShowDialog() = DialogResult.OK Then
        myStream = SaveFileDialog1.OpenFile()
        SaveName = SaveFileDialog1.FileName
        My.Computer.FileSystem.WriteAllText(SaveName, addText.Text, False)
        myStream.Close()
        ' End If
    End Sub

and this is the error screen


also saving to another file than the original does not work, where's my mistake?

Thanks in advance!
Nick

that is indeed looking great, nice work for your first lua game (even if it was not alone..)

you could use the timer.getMilliSecCounter instead, because the timer isn't correct at all..
if you store the start millisec and increment by the current millisec, you get the millisec that are passed since the start of the program.
when you divide by 1000, you get the nr of seconds (and take the math.floor() of it)

well, adriweb, i would love to share it, but i forgot to take it back to today, since i went to yesterday this morning, and i forgot it there xs

So here is a new screenshot of the new development of bomberman, 3D, explosions work, no moving yet, but that will come !

if someone has better sprites than in the first screenie, please tell me where to find them, i was thinking of a minecraft character, because they're simple, but famous

yep, for those who like programming on calc with oclua for example, or maybe a real on-calc program will appear that saves it directly to a .tns so this might be usefull when no pc is available

i know, but is it possible to use it with windows? i've tried that one on a mac, an it works flawless, but i'm stuck at windows
