Anyone good at programming VB? I am creating a game and I need to include music. The music in in .ogg vorbis format. I can't find a way to have it play this music file. Has anyone done this before?

You could use what DROD uses - FMOD. Check out www.fmod.org - I don't have any VB experience but they claim it works with VB.

Yeah, FMOD wouldn't be hard. It comes with a BAS file that has the function declarations you need. There's a board on FMOD.org's forum for VB users, too.

Just out of curiosity, Brad, what program are you using to make this game?
