Herro, I am creating a slot machine game, i have modeled and animated my 3d model for this job,
The question is two fold;
1) What type, if any, of video should i use in a control form? I want to click a button, the window pops up with the slot machine, i do stuff, the slot machine anim runs. I've looked at doing directshow, shockwave, aforge, and i cannot figure out how to embed videos, the sample code they give does not make sense. the variables they give are not functions, and Idk what type they are, if they're strings or streams; i cannot find a good guide on how to use any of these forms.
2) What are some other solutions to this, outside of running a video? Gifs? static pictures that i cycle through with a random timer or something. If you have any ideas or good documentation for any of this, i appreciate
What I have tried:
e'rethang; I have looked extensively at the documentation for AForge and Directshow.net, none of it is easy to understand, in fact much of it seems to be left out assuming the reader knows how to use it. the library is very large, so going through it just confused me even more. I just want a simple solution.
