building a game on windows without dll

Post by limvot »

Is it possible to create a game on windows using the irrlicht game engine without using the dll, like it is on linux? :?: ( or like raknet)

(i am devolping my game for all platforms and have a linux version using the makefile that does not require a dll)
Hi me noob so help me.

Recompile Irrlicht as a static Library, then link to it with your project. It'll embed Irrlicht in the .exe
Post this userbar I made on other websites to show your support for Irrlicht!

Where exactly did you see written that Irrlicht is a GAME ENGINE?
I'm really interested to know how dudes like you get that idea when it's written all over the place GRAPHIC ENGINE.

Graphic Engine that has API to:
- read ZIP
- read XML
- read mouse and keyboard input
- GUI

What-a cool "graphics" features! :lol:

P.S.: I am reading promo from Irrlicht' logo that says: Lighting Fast Realtime 3D Engine

When are you going to write a game with your own game engine? Has anybody written a game with your game engine?

I've joined the army two days ago so I'll have to take a little break from it but after I finish my current programming army course (3 months) I'll get back to it and also make a game out of it. I thought of starting with few mini games of different genres before I go big but thanks for the interest :wink:.

P.S
Virion and I (and some of his friends) are also making a fighting game with my engine (in development) and christianclavet has considered using it for his First-King game.

P.P.S
First release isn't ready yet, not even beta so don't expect anything big anytime soon.
