Ok, it is starting to make sense now. The class inherits the thread class, allowing it to spawn with the start() function.

What thread class / header file should I use in Vis Studio.net if I do not have the QT library installed?

Also, it says this will spawn new threads, however when i implement it, and call pFaerie->run() it just simply takes over. The while loop in run() begins and my main comes to a halt, it doesnt spawn a new thread that lets my main continue.

Am I misunderstanding how this works?

QPtrList<FaerieControl> faeries; for (int i = 0; i < 9; i++) { FaerieControl* pFaerie = new FaerieControl; if (!pFaerie) return 1; faeries.append(pFaerie); [color=red]pFaerie->start();[/color] } did you mean: pFaerie->run(); ? There is no start function in the class.

Is there a workaround for this issue? Perhaps using a model for the crosshairs?

EDIT: Recompiling in OPENGL fixed this issue.

Upside Down

Why do all the textures I load for billboards appear upside down. Everything from the gun to trees, everything loads upside down.

why?
