Didn't know about that! Very impressive!!

nobody even comment my code is it to harsh with ya or you just think im a nut ? :roll:

well, it's asm, and only a select few know what it is all about...

(i certainly don't, although i'd love to, sigh)

Well you can try run it and see what happens not harming anything

Sorry i forgot just wrote it fast :S
Between is there other ways get pointer with asm ? seems for me wierd to make a long as pointer first :S

Hi Toast, i forgot to say: You were storeing bytes in unallocated space
hey.s = "hey" is 4 bytes - [ h, e, y and 0 ]
but you were storeing 3 bytes beyond your allocation, thats not "healthy" you could be overwriting something.

Well i really don't know anything about asm, but.. Best Henrik.

Best Henrik.

Yea I know i also did last time i wrote the code looks so much more nicer.
But aren't it a fixed string so i should automatic allocate the string longer or im completly wrong ?

Just offering some feedback since I was just trying MoleBox for the first time, and so far very impressed - almost a no-brainer (simple) to use and it works (at least for my test project with dozens of images and a sound file). It operates on the finished EXE so it's totally independent of PB. I guess the price is worth it(?) especially if you want to bundle your DLL(s) with the EXE as well (which seems to be its selling point..).

Yep. And the community is pretty much mature and friendly, too. There's
been a few times when flame wars break out, and people have insulted
and abused each other, but everyone always forgives in the end. I know
from personal experience. It's a great place to be part of.

Pssst, PB...*me whispers..) You are replying to a post from 2006!! Run now, I won't tell anyone!!!

Damn, I am too! But this thread showed up from the "Show new posts from
last visit" link, so there must be a bug in the forum somewhere. Interesting!

must be a glitch the thread was just of the same title.

Couldn't help myself. Needed something to lighten the mood around here.
