hi pls I need someones help. i am not good at programming and i have this subject ; but i am a BSBA major. it is like free section for me and i want to learn it to so i can be flexible. but this project is getting all my soul. We where told to create a game using a C# . a very simple game . then the prof listed games to pick like snake, tictactoe, etc. i picked the slot machine figuring that i already thought that its using timer , and bunch of if statements so i picked it. I am already done with the timer part and pictures part but the if statement is what i have been troubled. i dont know what to do. i thought that its only if pic1.image== pic2.image. /// so on so forth.....
can you help me i want it to be when the picturebox hit lets say 3 banana the amount bet is multiplied.... here i will post my codes as well as a linked to download my project.... i really badly need some1 help.

ok..... tnx... well to share... i havent still found a way to solve my problem . Instead I used textbox in place of the pictureboxes and numbers instead of pictures. that way it would be easier to do the if statements.... but if anyone is still willing to put what they have in mind pls do so.
(i hope my prof doesnt see this site....)

You could do this if you create your own Image class. Something like:

public class MyImage
{
    string Path { get; private set; }
    Image Image { get; private set; }

    public MyImage (string path, Image image)
    {
        Path = path;
        Image = image;
    }

    public bool Equals(MyImage secondImage)
    {
        if (secondImage == null)
        {
            return false;
        }
        return string.Compare(Path, secondImage.Path) == 0;
    }
}

What this does is compare the paths used by two MyImages and if they are the same returns true;

Here's one way to do it, not fancy but it works. I use an imagelist to hold the images, and 3 labels to display them. I used 6 images, but you can add as many as you want, also you can have as many labels as you want to mimic reels. It will probably work best if all the images and the labels are the same size. I found Paint useful since it uses pixels the same as visual studio.

This is set up to only look at one line, and uses standard slot criterium for determining a winning line, namely winners can only count the same image from the left hand side, for instance apple, apple, lemon, is a winner but lemon, apple, apple is not. Hope this will help you.
