Hiding/removing the window frame with Win32API?

[Ulqiorra]

Does anyone know how to remove or simply hide the window frame for Game.exe with Win32API? Or any other method? I want to hide the frame on the outside of the window, and I haven't been able to find anything on it...

I haven't understanded well. Do you want to remove the border of the window?

If so, you can use:

GPPSA = Win32API.new('kernel32', 'GetPrivateProfileStringA', 'PPPPLP', 'L')

FindWindowA = Win32API.new('user32', 'FindWindowA', 'pp', 'l')

SetWindowLong = Win32API.new('user32', 'SetWindowLong', 'LLL', 'L')

 

title = "\0" * 255

GPPSA.call('Game', 'Title', '', title, 255, '.\\Game.ini')

title.delete!("\0")

 

hwnd = FindWindowA.call('RGSS Player', title)

 

SetWindowLong.call(hwnd, -16, 0x20000000)

Well, that removes the window's contents from the frame, but the frame is still showing, and my clickable close button in the rm* game itself isn't clickable...

Can you specify a bit more about you want to do?

 

[DeM0nFiRe]

I think I know what you want to do. Instead of the 0x20000000 try 0x80880000

 

[Ulqiorra]

Nope, it removes the whole window.

Try 0x80880000 & ~0x20000000

Yeyinde,

0x80880000 is hex for the binary:
10000000100010000000000000000000

~0x20000000 is the hex for the binary:
11011111111111111111111111111111

Using the bitwise and operator on them ['&'] merely nets you:
10000000100010000000000000000000 or
0x80880000

If you mean use both values together, you'd use a bitwise inclusive or operator [ '|' ] have 0xDFFFFFFF which is the complement of 0x20000000, since there are no new bits introduced by the 0x80880000 that aren't already present in the complement of 0x20000000.

I understand... kind of... not really. But I'll try anyway.
