I am trying to create a type of game like Super Mario World. I have read through many post about jumping but i am having trouble trying to convert the Code into my own version which is proving difficult.

Basically i want the up key for the Jump i know the theory of doing it but when coding it my mind goes blank lol.

I was wondering if anyone could help shed some light on this for me. I am using VB 6.0. I have attach the game so far, Using blitting with masks for transparency.

Thanks Jay

Go back to the page before this one and look down two thread to where it says Mario Game... Maybe that game can give you some ideas...

you have to think of Mario jump in slow motion.

in Mario the jump is a main feature of the game and will be complicated because the arrow keys still have effect the whole time.

the jump key will start a routine.

you need a period of time for Mario to travel upwards through the game loop, then is he is not on solid ground you need to have a gravity effect to pull him down.
