Hai

A few people have expressed interest in seeing my Maze solver It is windows only, and requires the .NET framework (3.5 if i remember correctly).

I have included some images (but you can find more here (you MUST set the path width to 1 pixel ))

There are a few unhandeled exceptions here and there, as it's far from complete and stable Have fun though Also, I doubt you will be able to solve the 600x600UNTESTED maze due to it's size

SPECIAL IMAGE: ChristmasSpecial.bmp
Just drop this into the "Mazes" folder and solve it

Super Mazes:
The ".NET 4 Improved" version includes a 300x300 maze. This is as far as i've tested my application. It also includes a 600x600 maze, which will take an exceptionally long time to solve

Wine complains it requires 4.0 (Last time I checked 4.0 was highly unstable with Wine)

Any chance you could compile it with 3.5 compatibility? I haven't used MSVS in a few years but I do remember there's an option for it.

OHMYGAWDVIRII!!!

lol naw. that's neat. source plz?

Sure I'll post it later it looks even sexier now

*Downloads*. *Attempts EPIC maze*.

EDIT: Not responding xD. My computer's fine, just seems your program doesn't like epic mazes.

EDIT 2: Now it is responding Completed both steps 1 and 2...

EDIT 3: 150x150 EPIC solution found! After 24 minutes processing... Nice program man, I'd love to see the source too.

Yeah, the problem is actually really windows' Windows doesnt seem to like allocating masses of heap space to a single program. Usually you just get a stack overflow and it crashes

I'll upload the source (which is a bit messy I can comment it if anyone needs me too). It's in vb.NET too (*awaits criticism*).

@Nathan: I've comiled it in .NET 3.5 for you. It seems the .NET 4 version performs MUCH better on my PC

Guess I was lucky then I got one error when I closed the program and that's it haha. I don't mind VB.NET - I had to live with it for two years >.>

Cheers. I must say, this is pretty impressive for VB.

Why thank you
The newest version is best IMO because it shades the area where the solver has "visited"

Maybe add support for other formats (gif, png, jpg, etc)?

Edit: I got my local copy to support PNG. It was easy enough. Gif threw an error (can't remember exactly what it was. Something about SetPixel i believe) and when it was scanning the JPEG it completely broke the image. PNG worked fine though, I just had to make it display PNG files in the comboBox
