I would like for somebody give me an answer if they know that this is possible.
If nobody don't know, I will ask 3dgamestudio for the answer. If it is possible can somebody show me how to do it, like a code example that displays windows form on the screen when you load up your game. I'm guess you do it through the plugins, when you do Win32 DLL Template. Thanks a lot.

what kind of form do you mean?

This: ?


or something like video_window?


nipx

Yes a form like that above the game window......

this could work:

1. execute your .exe
2. start a dll function that check if your .exe is open. if not it chages myVar
3. wait till myVar changed (in 3dGStudio) -> if it changes, the .exe is closed so continue

The stuff on the windows form will intergrate with the game code, you see.
Is that possible??????????

this form is VisalBasic stuff, not c-script or lite-c. So its not possible to integreate it.


(I guess you want a game-setup to predefine some vars before you start your game, dont you?)


nipx

something like that, but I will figure it out. Thanks for the help. I can get it from here

you will have to use the SDK to do this and you must wait for 6.6 for this to work. It works in the beta but not the latest release version.

you basically need to change the TargetWindow

best way i can think of is creating your forms in vb or what ever you use then have it output the information you need for the game to a text file or ini file and then figure out how to get it from in the game using cscript

Can't you just use the Win32 API and use "CreateWindow" to show another window? All the control arguments for scrollbars,buttons,etc are available through the win32 API, and are pretty easy to build.
