Noob Question (Dev C++ and Irrlicht)

Post by dejai »

I am finding it really hard to be able to send my project or game to other people. I have a couple questions..

How to i get my game to work on a computer which does not have irrlicht. Say i have a folder called game how do i get it so that all the files I need are contained within that folder including my .exe file for it to work on other computers?

Im using Dev C++ and I also get build errors if I try to put the .exe in a file other than the default irrlicht\bin


Thanks

Put your exe, all the files your game requires in whatever subdirectories they need, and the irrlicht dll in the same folder and your game should work on any PC.

I have no idea why you would get build errors if you change the output directory unless you're pointing to an invalid directory.
