» Old Visual Basic code downloads
 

I have been active in the Visual Basic gaming community for a long time. Although I'm now more into C++, I still have all the old files I downloaded since 1997!

I've decided to make these files available for download. The files have all been checked thoroughly for viruses. I do not accept any responsibility for anything that might happen by running the applications and/or source code.

If you might have some old (VB gaming related) files which you'd like to share, please consider contacting me. Please read the readmes for any license information, if there is such a thing included.

You can find additional VB related downloads at the VBGamer file archive. Some files might be double on these sites, since Eric, the author of the site, has been just atleast just as long in the VB Gaming scene as I have .

Donations are always welcome. Bandwidth still ain't free, unfortunately . Next to the fact I have neverreceived a single donation for my other code downloads . This is also one reason why there is a google-ad on top of this page. (But also just because I wanted to experiment with it )

Downloads:

Click on the filename to download any the files. If you download something without description, please consider telling me what it is. I do not have the time to check everything so I can fill in the description.

Enjoy ! I hope the files might be of any use to you.
