Time Played Simple Application!
« on: July 30, 2011, 12:15:11 PM »
Hey guys. I just got invited to the BF3 Alpha Trial a while back and I tried launching is as a none steam game but the way Origin is set up it was impossible so I made an empty VB app launched it with BF3 to Represent it.

I then later realized Steam wasn't tracking my time for non steam games.
So I had to impervise. I decided I'd take the empty app and turn it into a time played tracker so I could keep track how long I played it.


I haven't finished the application yet but i was wondering if you anyone would like to see a tutorial on how to make this simple app or just source code or something. :D Anyways I'll post the App exe below when I'm done.
I'd love to help people wanting to learn Visual Basic.

Thoughts?

Lol Ok.

keep in mind I'm keeping this VERY BASIC so that everyone can go along with it.



For example just cause this is a simple app and everything the Apps going to assume your not a huge nerd and that you havent played from DAY 1 Till DAY 2 During the apps run.

Meaning if you start the app at 11:59 PM (23:59) And play till 5:59 AM (5:59) You'll get wacky results and the time Tracker will be off.

It's easy to fix but I'm not going to spend the time doing this lol.

I'm make it super basic.

If you want more after that and enjoyed it then I will expand and fix thoes bugs and you can see  how etc.

I just Finished the application.

Nothing fancy. I didn't work on the GUI or anything and I didn't add saving to it so you can carry on values from previous days etc etc. I'll add to it and stuff if you guys like the first version.



That's the application. Would anyone like me to post it or add source code and tut on how to make?

Any other suggestions for apps? I'd love to help people learn :D

Prove me wrong? About what I never said anything.

I said its a tutorial. Some times the best things in life are simple. Not everything has to be complex.
Also I was making it as a tutorial for noobs you don't start showing them how to make map the human genome.
