i want make a simple game in dos

o whoops...
but anyways thanks.

hey, can anybody explain this to me? I need to make random numbers between 1 and 5, would this code work, or do i need more?

set /a DICE2=%random% %%6 + 1 >nul

and also im wondering about the things fareast187 used - thsee º. In DOS it makes a vertical double line. are there more of these characters I could use for corners and horizontal lines too?

È = a bottom left corner
Ì = one line with two half lines
æ = a y thing
ß = a rectangle
Ø = an = with ligns coming out of the top and bottom
Æ = a lign with to parts sticking out
» = a top right corner
¶ = double ligns
¡ = an i with a hat
these are some of the draw functions. i found them here
http://nostalgia.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiki_special_characters

thanx i used some of yours but I dont want to go down the whole list in that page to find them so is there anyway I can just use these? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Box_drawing_characters

well nvm i got most of what i got except BC, I can't find what to use to get BC/188/255D. I need the bottom right corner... anyone know?

haha im going crazy with these batch games... I'm almost done with eternal death slayer - An RPG where you just build up your skills, and I have started a new one called Alpha and Omega - A strategy game where what you build decides your future. You basically play as god. Anyway, I'll post links here as soon as I can upload...

im gettin bttr at batch games my recent one(and first one) is a card game, its like that magic card trick but Windows is definetly no Magician. the next one im making is a card game like Texas Hold em. i would say that the only bat games im making are card games. my other bat progs will be utilities and im finishing up a bat prog that is an anti-virus prog.

the bat file can be anti-virus ?? i wana see that any way here is my simple game that i made. use w,a,s,d to move l to load map
(del last 4 digits from name of file to run)

yea it can be an Anti-Virus prog but i dont want to share the secret until i have finished it. i dont want anyone to be copy-cats out dere. but heres a hint "Find delete".

I can be beta tester but it will be only in one file? or it will instal?

and also im wondering about the things fareast187 used - thsee º. In DOS it makes a vertical double line. are there more of these characters I could use for corners and horizontal lines too?

that is a special Characters

open notepad, on the notepad...

hold down the key Alt then type the number like 147 then it will came Characters like this..."ô"

right now i found a new idea...

i want to make a hangman game...

like this :-
THIS GAME IS NOT FINISH YET.....I WILL FINISH THIS GAME LATER...AND POST AT HERE

echo off
cls
:a
Echo Name Of Animal...??
echo _ _ _ _

set /p Choice=Put Your Letter:
if [%Choice%]==[C] goto correct
if [%Choice%]==[A] goto correct2
if [%Choice%]==[T] goto correct3

For %%a in (C,A,T) do if not [%Choice%]==[%%a] goto lose

:lose
echo you're lose...hahahahahaha...


:correct
cls
Echo Name Of Animal...??
echo %Choice% _ _ _
goto exit


:correct2
cls
Echo Name Of Animal...??
echo _ %Choice% _ _
goto exit


:correct3
cls
Echo Name Of Animal...??
echo _ _ %Choice% _
goto exit

:exit
goto a

pause

ah that is a good idea for a hangman game, but proggramming in so many random words or phrases word be difficult. but that is a great idea Fareast!

Devcom:

i cant run yours because I'm on my PSP but it looks complex. I might try it tomorow at school.

But anyway, if anyone wants to test Eternal Death Slayer and I will probably upload tomorrow also.

i have noticed that my game works only on vista coz XP dont chave choice option...
