Re: First Tutorial/Example Causing A Segfault

Yes, I am aware of this, which is why I am attempting to create or find the necessary ones that I require for Netbeans and MinGW... Unfortunately at this stage it just doesn't look like it's going to happen.

Re: First Tutorial/Example Causing A Segfault

Aha! I shall attempt to compile it using VS and report back on my progress.

Thank you very much... hopefully this will work. :|


EDIT: Well, I tried compiling but unfortunately it seems to be set up to use the DirectX stuff, so I'll either have to download that, or ask that someone sends me a ...

Re: First Tutorial/Example Causing A Segfault

Thanks for that! That's the issue I'm experiencing, obviously, for whatever reason.
As far as I can read, if I want to recompile the engine to be compatible with DirectX I need to do more, but I'm happy recompiling it just to use OpenGL.

Re: First Tutorial/Example Causing A Segfault

I'm actually on Win7, although I'd rather be running a Linux distro for this. No space on the drive for a separate partition though.

And no, I only have 1 single set of Irrlicht stuff. I've obviously just got the wrong thing somewhere, which is confusing me because there's only one single version ...

Re: First Tutorial/Example Causing A Segfault

That's what I thought. Hmmm...

I have the most recent stable download and I'm obviously using the header in the include folder, and the libs and the dll from the gcc folder (I've gathered that's what I want if compiling with g++ although I may be making a terrible mistake...).

As a note I'm ...

Re: First Tutorial/Example Causing A Segfault

The setWindowCaption line seems to be nullifying the device, it seems... as potentially is addStaticText, getMesh... etc. later on.

First Tutorial/Example Causing A Segfault

Hi!

I have no idea what I've done wrong. It's all been set up correctly and it compiles fine, no warnings or errors.
The program gets as far as "IVideoDriver* driver = device->getVideoDriver();" before throwing up a segfault. Something there is causing it, and I'm concerned it's something to do ...
