I was wondering this too, however through out my travels you have to be OS specific in order to do this. A.K.A. you would have to use windows library with mfc or something. which is a shame if you wanted to make a game for more then one OS. Well I guess you still can, but it is more coding setting up the app frames for every OS.

What compiler and OS are you using?

JRM

[hybrid]

There is only one compiler (suite) and OS exposing this behavior

JRM

visual studio 2005 and win xp

#pragma comment(linker, "/subsystem:windows /entry:main")

#pragma comment(linker, "/subsystem:windows /entry:main")

if i write that in the file all windows are hidden not only the cmd window

Hey,

change the Outputtyp from Consoleapplication to Windowsapplication.

go to you Project Propertys (right-mouse-click in the project)
on next screen there are Tabs: Application; Compile; Build....; Debug;
Change to Application, in there are a ComboBox "Output-type".
change it to Windowapplication.

(i think All this translation are not direct correct, because i have a german C#2005 Express)


i hope it helps

i couldn't find that option

another kinda cheating way to do it is to run your app in full screen lol

the pragma comment should do the trick though dont know why it isnt in your case

bunch of coding and setup??

#ifdef
win32
int main(hinstance *windowsgayhandle)
#else
something retarded like mac or linux
#endif

blah blah blah omg that was so hard to setup and write...


guice had this crap 2 years ago... guess nobody ever looked at the source there was a lot of neat irrlicht tricks... that took me two years to compile into the crappy program that guice was...only because it had to do backflips to work properly... dot dot dot bitches

This does the trick for me:

Code: Select all

char filename[4096];
HWND hWnd;

	GetModuleFileName(NULL,filename+1,4094);
	hWnd=FindWindow(NULL,filename+1);
	if (!hWnd) 
	{
		filename[0]='\"';
		sprintf(filename+1+strlen(filename+1),"\"\0");
		hWnd=FindWindow(NULL,filename);
	}
	ShowWindow(hWnd,false);

However, if you create a Win32 project instead of a Win32 Console and replace main() by WinMain() you won't get the dosbox at all.

Try add

/SUBSYSTEM:WINDOWS /ENTRY:mainCRTStartup

to your linker option (the command line edit box).
