using System;
namespace tutorial1App
{
class Form1
{
int Number = 0;
private void Form1_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
// Comment type 1
/* Comment type 2
Part of comment type 2
This line is still a comment*/
MessageBox.Show("Hello world");
}
private void ErrorMessage(string Text)
{
MessageBox.Show(Text);
}
}
}
Line 1 - Using System;
This allows the program to use the System; a program will generally have multiple "Using" statements.
Line 2 - A namespace declaration is a collection of classes.
Line 3 - An Curly Open bracket, resembles the start of that function/procedure, the closed curly bracket resembles the end. So all the code within that function will be inside the { and }.
Line 4 - In this case the class is automatically generated as a Form class.
Line 6 - A Variable is a reserved space in memory. It can hold memory, of different types that can change. Some types of varaibles you may use are; Int, Bool, Float, Decimal, String. This line creates a variable and gives it a name of Number. The type of variable is an "int" which means integer, also known as a Whole Number, and is given the value of 0.
Line 8 - A private void is a procedure which can be called. In this case it is called when an event is taken place. The "On Load" event, which means when the program loads up, it will run the code within this procedure.
Line 10 - This line is a comment, which means the program will ignore this line. The "//" makes this single line a comment
Line 12 - This is a multi line comment, the start of the comment is /* and everything after that is classed as a comment, until you type the end */
Line 14 - MessageBox.Show is a procedure that is built into visual studios. Calling this function will show a message box. The string (text) inside the brackets, needs to have a quotation mark at either end. This is classed as one argument. MessageBox.Show can support multiple arguments, such as Icons and different button options.
Line 17 - This is a procedure that you would call by doing ErrorMessage("This is text for the error message");, this is simalir to OnLoad, however does not have an event attached to it, which means it will only run this procedure when you call it. It only can handle one argument, which in this case is a variable named "Text" and the type of variable is a string. (string Text)
Data Types
Bool / Boolean - A bool is the easiest data type. As it only has two values, either True or False.
String - A String is simply text, it can contain numbers and letters. However if you was to add "2" + "6" as a string, the output would be "26". As it simply joins them together.
Int - An integer holds a number, from -2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647(Int 32). If the range needs to be larger, you would use a long. (Int 64)
Byte - A Value from 0 - 255 as an integer, or 0x00 to 0xFF as a hexidecemal.
Char - A single character, such a "a" or "&".
Uint - 32 Bit unsigned integer type, with a range of 0 - 4,294,967,295.
Float - 32 Bit single precision floating point type. An example would be "36.512f"
Pointer - A pointer type variable stores the memory address of another type.
Conversion
Use the Convert.To (Variable type) Method to convert one variable type to another.
An Example would be Convert.ToInt32("1754" + "1253") + 5; This line would first add the two strings "1754" + "1253" to make 17541253 then Convert it to a number. Then add 5 therefore equaling 17541258
Other exampels are Convert.ToString(); Convert.ToByte(); and so on
Operators
+ Add two operands
- Subtract two operands
* Multiply two operands
/ Divide two operands (Will get error if your result data type is Int, and it results in a decimal number)
++ Increment operator. So 5++ will = 6
-- Decrement operator. So 13-- Will = 12
Relational Operators
== Checks if two values equal each other.
!= Checks if two values are not equal.
> Checks if the left value is greater than the right value.
< Checks if the left value is less than the right value.
>= Checks if the left value is greater than or equal to the right value.
<= Checks if the left value is less than or equal to the right value.
Logical Operators
&& Checks if one operator AND the next operator is true. E.g. (A == true && B == true) If both equal true
|| Checks if one or the other is true.
! Checks if it is the opposite to the statement. Eg If !(A == true && B == true) So if they both Do NOT equal true
Statements
If statement
And if statement will check if something is correct, if it is then it will run the code between { }
Example
bool example = true;
if (example == true)
{
MessageBox.Show("Example is true!");
}If else statements
If the statement is correct it will run the code, however if it isn't correct, it will run the else code
Example
bool example = true;
if (example == true)
{
MessageBox.Show("Example is true!");
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("Example is false!");
}Switch Statements
A switch statment is another way of doing lots of if statements, that checks the value of a variable
Example
int number = 3;
switch(number)
{
case 0:
MessageBox.Show("Number = 0");
break;
case 1;
MessageBox.Show("Number = 1");
break;
case 2;
MessageBox.Show("Number = 2");
break;
case 3;
MessageBox.Show("Number = 3");
break;
case 4;
MessageBox.Show("Number = 4");
break;
}In this case, the message will say Number = 3
For statement
This will repeat a section of code, until a value == another value
Example
for (int i = 0; i =< 8; i++)
{
MessageBox.Show("i =" + Convert.ToString(i));
}The output will be 9 Messageboxes, each with a number, incrementing from 0 - 8
While Loop
A while loop will loop something, until the operator is not true
Example
int i = 0;
While (i < 5)
{
MessageBox.Show("i =" + Convert.ToString(i));
i++
}This will output 5 Messageboxes, from 0 - 4
Do While Statements
Similiar to a while statement, however this will run the code atleast once, before it checks if it is true, where as the while statement checks it before the code is run.
Example
do
{
MessageBox.Show("i =" + Convert.ToString(i));
i++
} while (i < 5);Methods/Procedures
A method/procedure, is where you can call the something multiple times. You can input variables, and it can also return variables.
Pythagoras Example // If you don't know, pythagorean theorem - a² + b² = c²
public static double Pythagoras(int A, int B)
{
int sqaure = (A*A) + (B*B);
return Math.Sqrt(square);
}In this case the i have used the variable "double" to be returned. As the result may be a decimal. However if you do not want the method to return a value, use "void".
The "(int A, int B)" are the arguments that are required to call the function. If you do not want to call any arguments, you will just do ().
An example in code to use this method would be as followed
void Button1_Click(Object sender, EventArgs e)
{
MessageBox.Show("Side A = 5, Side B = 5, Side C = " + Convert.ToString(Pythagoras(5, 5));
}This will show a messagebox saying "Side A = 5, Side B = 5, Side C = 7.07106"
Arrays
An array is used to store lots of variables of the same type.
An example of an array, would be a list of names, as you can have many names, but they will all be a string.
Syntax Example
string[] PersonName = new PersonName[50];
The above line will create a string array named PersonName, which has 50 string slots.
Then you could enter the values within the array by doing
PersonName[0] = "Tom";
PersonName[1] = "Peter"
...
Assigning values from an array can be done while declaration, by doing
string[] PersonName = { "Tom", "Peter", "James" };
Events
An event runs a section of code, once the event has been done. A simple well known example would be the event On Click, which will run a section of code when you click the item.
There are other events such as "On Text Changed" which will run the code every time a new character has been entered.
Timers
A timer is an object in the tool box, one of the most important ones i use.
The timer has a propertie which sets the Time it takes until it next "Ticks".
The OnTick event will run the code every time the timer "ticks".
So that is the very basics of C# programming, it is also good to know that it can be ported to many other programming languages. Although the syntax is different, it will not take you too long to learn it. For example i first learn Pascal Lazarus, but then learnt C#, and alot of information i have transfered across while learning new things.
I recommend you make simple, basic programs to learn the GUI design, how things work, and use the above as a reference through your learning. I have made over 100 random small programs, to learn key skills, i've made simple encryption programs, data manipulation programs and i still do just to make things easier. For example, if there is a textfile, with over 1000 lines of text, but i want the text to delete a part, and also make it all capital letters, it would take me hours and hours to manually do, therefore i created a program and after 10minuites of programming, and two seconds of run time, the file was changed.
PS3 Related
PS3Lib Related - So this is what you all want, right?
First of all, you will need to add the PS3Lib; dll as a reference in your program. To do this click Project, then Add Reference, then browse for the dll.
Now that you have added it as a reference, you will need to add "Using PS3Lib;" This will allow to use the resources within PS3Lib to allow you to connect your program to your PS3.
You will need to add an instance, within your program where you declare your variables. "PS3API PS3 = new PS3API();" //PS3API() Takes 1 optional Argument
Now, add a button called Connect, then add the event "On Click" to your code, by clicking the lightning tab (events) then double clicking the On Click event.
Next, view all the options you can do within PS3Lib by type PS3. , this will show you all the options, use your UP and Down arrows to scroll. Some options, have more options within them such as PS3.Extension.
So for the Conenct button, you want to add PS3.Connect(), this method returns a bool value, and has an optionary argument for an IP address which is a string E.g. "192.168.1.1".
To check if it has connected or not, you should add this to an IF statement. Use the above If Statment as a template. Use the same method for Attaching to your PS3.
Now to edit the ps3 games memory in real time, you will need to know the Offset of the game. If the offset is dynamic, you will need to make a search function.
This is one simple example of how to change your name for MW2, the Name offset for MW2 is 0x1F9F11C.
Example
PS3.Extension.WriteString(0x1F9F11C, "Test");
This will change your name to Test, to read the current name and display it in a messagebox, you would do the following.
MessageBox.Show(PS3.Extension.ReadString(0x1F9F11C));
If people have any questions, or suggestions on any more detail, be sure to comment below and i will be happy to help. This tutorial took me a few hours to write up, i add picture if people would prefer. I decided not to add GUI set up information as most of it, is self explanatory.

}In this case the i have used the variable "double" to be returned. As the result may be a decimal. However if you do not want the method to return a value, use "void".
The "(int A, int B)" are the arguments that are required to call the function. If you do not want to call any arguments, you will just do ().
An example in code to use this method would be as followed
void Button1_Click(Object sender, EventArgs e)
{
MessageBox.Show("Side A = 5, Side B = 5, Side C = " + Convert.ToString(Pythagoras(5, 5));
}This will show a messagebox saying "Side A = 5, Side B = 5, Side C = 7.07106"
Arrays
An array is used to store lots of variables of the same type.
An example of an array, would be a list of names, as you can have many names, but they will all be a string.
Syntax Example
string[] PersonName = new PersonName[50];
The above line will create a string array named PersonName, which has 50 string slots.
Then you could enter the values within the array by doing
PersonName[0] = "Tom";
PersonName[1] = "Peter"
...
Assigning values from an array can be done while declaration, by doing
string[] PersonName = { "Tom", "Peter", "James" };
Events
An event runs a section of code, once the event has been done. A simple well known example would be the event On Click, which will run a section of code when you click the item.
There are other events such as "On Text Changed" which will run the code every time a new character has been entered.
Timers
A timer is an object in the tool box, one of the most important ones i use.
The timer has a propertie which sets the Time it takes until it next "Ticks".
The OnTick event will run the code every time the timer "ticks".
So that is the very basics of C# programming, it is also good to know that it can be ported to many other programming languages. Although the syntax is different, it will not take you too long to learn it. For example i first learn Pascal Lazarus, but then learnt C#, and alot of information i have transfered across while learning new things.
I recommend you make simple, basic programs to learn the GUI design, how things work, and use the above as a reference through your learning. I have made over 100 random small programs, to learn key skills, i've made simple encryption programs, data manipulation programs and i still do just to make things easier. For example, if there is a textfile, with over 1000 lines of text, but i want the text to delete a part, and also make it all capital letters, it would take me hours and hours to manually do, therefore i created a program and after 10minuites of programming, and two seconds of run time, the file was changed.
PS3 Related
PS3Lib Related - So this is what you all want, right?
First of all, you will need to add the PS3Lib; dll as a reference in your program. To do this click Project, then Add Reference, then browse for the dll.
Now that you have added it as a reference, you will need to add "Using PS3Lib;" This will allow to use the resources within PS3Lib to allow you to connect your program to your PS3.
You will need to add an instance, within your program where you declare your variables. "PS3API PS3 = new PS3API();" //PS3API() Takes 1 optional Argument
Now, add a button called Connect, then add the event "On Click" to your code, by clicking the lightning tab (events) then double clicking the On Click event.
Next, view all the options you can do within PS3Lib by type PS3. , this will show you all the options, use your UP and Down arrows to scroll. Some options, have more options within them such as PS3.Extension.
So for the Conenct button, you want to add PS3.Connect(), this method returns a bool value, and has an optionary argument for an IP address which is a string E.g. "192.168.1.1".
To check if it has connected or not, you should add this to an IF statement. Use the above If Statment as a template. Use the same method for Attaching to your PS3.
Now to edit the ps3 games memory in real time, you will need to know the Offset of the game. If the offset is dynamic, you will need to make a search function.
This is one simple example of how to change your name for MW2, the Name offset for MW2 is 0x1F9F11C.
Example
PS3.Extension.WriteString(0x1F9F11C, "Test");
This will change your name to Test, to read the current name and display it in a messagebox, you would do the following.
MessageBox.Show(PS3.Extension.ReadString(0x1F9F11C));
If people have any questions, or suggestions on any more detail, be sure to comment below and i will be happy to help. This tutorial took me a few hours to write up, i add picture if people would prefer. I decided not to add GUI set up information as most of it, is self explanatory.
