Re: Gonna take a break for another project
I may as well be AWOL or FUBAR. I can't tell if anything I like will see an end result. Maybe I've been too ill to really do anything. Thanks for putting up with me and my stringent, robotic, pedantic, terrible "I'm right" attitude. You may have seen other community members drop by and nev...

Re: Gonna take a break for another project
I didn't find games that appealing. Well I did, but I would pretty much always look beyond the game and the engine and wonder how a computer did such amazing stuff. I have some shoe boxes with electronic parts in and I'm currently figuring out how to program a chip. It didn't matter if it was Unity ...

Windows windows
WinUI WinCLI WinRT WinUWP WinCX Win32 MFC I will be checking out the Win32 + Irrlicht example pretty soon. I'm beginning to sway towards GUI interfaces and not solely game development. Along with the DirectX 2010 SDK are example projects involving dx9 and dx10. I didn't know how many people here kn...

Re: CustomPresenter for embedding Irrlicht in GTK etc
Can I ask a question about Qt since you mentioned it? I had heard about Qt being a great tool for GUI. I never thought I would need it as Windows has plenty of ways with their tools, so when I eventually got around to visiting the Qt site I was rather shocked. It's great if you plan on creating OSS ...

Re: [solved] SVN trunk and 1.9 without dll and Window 7.1 SDK
Okay. It works. With the 1.9 trunk. Any differences in the 1.8.5 and 1.9?
No 7.1 was installed (only 4.8.1)
I used the DX 2010 installer
I used desktop c++ workload
What's different with the 10/11/12.sln and the vc17.sln?

Re: [solved] SVN trunk and 1.9 without dll and Window 7.1 SDK
If I download Visual Studio and install Desktop workload and also check .NET 4.8.1 - using the 1.8.5 version from your main page... No work. This was a post about the 1.9 trunk but I thought I'd try "a quick and dirty set up". I realised that perhaps I like things working with as little ef...

Re: [solved] SVN trunk and 1.9 without dll and Window 7.1 SDK
I had problems with the 7.1 .NET 4 installation. Part of .NET was already present both times on my system and couldn't install everything. I would have liked to use the latest 4.8.1 and use backwards compatibility. I'm a little cautious of using Irrlicht because it uses old libraries. Sorry about th...

Re: [solved] SVN trunk and 1.9 without dll and Window 7.1 SDK
So is the DirectX 2010 download the same as the SDK 7.1?
Does the SDK have more in it but Irrlicht only needs the graphics part?

Re: Gonna take a break for another project
I've pretty much accepted the game isn't anything big and that's okay. What I am worried about is not being able to stick to one (maybe two) projects. I'm having too many ideas/thoughts about what to work on. One of them is use the world builder Alien made available in his repo and do what I mention...

Re: Gonna take a break for another project
I had to realise that Infinite Line, the game I really liked, the game I thought would do really well... I heard about this. A new developer will think their game is great / it's their baby / it is awesome, but it turns out it is a load of rubbish. No-one took interest, no-one understood it, no-one ...

Re: Gonna take a break for another project
Money is the only issue now. Forking out money for the books and Amazon costs. I coded a program in SDL to output bitmap images, I added a loop to save multiple images so I can insert as many as I want into my book. Maybe a 25 page, 50 page, 100 page... I've pretty much finished it. There's a game d...

Re: Gonna take a break for another project
Hello I know everyone faces problems, and it's easy to give up. There may he hope. There's a chance of paying for multiple ISBNs. That way the cost is significantly reduced when making 10 books to keep the idea going. Sure, I can produce enough books - but opposing that idea is no-one buying it. The...

Re: Gonna take a break for another project
Hello CuteAlien Hello Noiecity I may leave Infinite Line / SumUpGriddy until much later on when my hands are filthy with programming knowledge. One way is to release on a phone by using 2022 and cross platform C++ style, but I'm poop :lol: One way to release my game was through a publisher, but the ...
