I can properly do this in C++ but it is not working in VB 6

I can CreateDC("DISPLAY", vbNullString, vbNullString, 0) fine

but the TextOut function will not draw...
This is what i have...

**gb is already defined as Long

gb = CreateDC("DISPLAY", vbNullString, vbNullString, 0)
TextOut(gb, 50, 50, "Hello World!", 12)

Why are you using CreateDC?

Use GetDC

GetDC doesnt work and it gets hooked by gameguard later

you have to loop the textout call you know ? since the game draws over it.. also not sure if createdc is hooked or not, check its return value.

also getdc works fine as long as you use it correctly. when i last tried it definitely worked anyway. don't remember if it is hooked or not but if it is it is definitely only usermode. loop textout..
