2d tutorial HELP!!!!!

Post by ertae »

this is my code for tutorial 6, what is wrong??? how i can put an other image whats wrong with this??

// draw flying imp
driver->draw2DImage(images, core::position2d<s32>(164,125),
(time/500 % 2) ? imp1 : imp2 : imp3 , 0,
video::SColor(255,255,255,255), true);

//

Code: Select all

// 2d.cpp : Defines the entry point for the console application.
//

#include "stdafx.h"

/*
This Tutorial shows how to do 2d graphics with the Irrlicht Engine.
It shows how to draw images, keycolor based sprites,
transparent rectangles and different fonts. You will may consider
this useful if you want to make a 2d game with the engine, or if 
you want to draw a cool interface or head up display for your 3d game.

As always, I include the header files, use the irr namespace,
and tell the linker to link with the .lib file.

What do you think this code should do ...? The compiler can't guess what you want to achieve.

The "?:"-operator is good for true/false-choices, but you want a third option - just adding a ":" won't help. Try if() or switch() instead. If you never heard about them, please do yourself a favor and learn C/C++ before you try to do some thing with Irrlicht.
