Compiling Irrlicht 0.8 Examples with Dev C++ 4

Post by ben »

Is there a way I can compile irrlicht 0.8 examples with Dev C++ 4,
not 4.9.9.2, because I can't seem to download it, it has no link for Australia from sourceforge. I can compile the code, but when I run it, it just crashes,
and nothing I do seems to fix anything, can anyone help?

Try my tip from this post: http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net/phpBB2/ ... php?t=5863


Incidentally, just because there's no Australia link doesn't mean you can't download it from somewhere else...

It still doesn't work, I read the other message and put the dll in the folder
and the same thing happens. I get the same things happening, however.

And, the other links are so far away it says that it'll take 10 hours to download,
I'm not going to wait that long!

I think I found the problem!

It's the dll file itself, so all I need to do is recompile Irrlicht through
Dev C++...Now If it won't freeze when loading...

What a mess...

I found a working download link from china, it'll take 2 hrs...
4.9.80 Dev C++ Here I come!


I hope it's not in chinese...

Yes, you can download off any mirror... That is just giving locations because it is closest....

I got it all working now!

For anyone who wants to try and get Irrlicht running on plain
Dev C++ 4, the problem in my opinion lies in aabbox3d.h
That was the only code I changed in the earlier Dev-C++ to get
it to compile, and maybe during linking the program this section
of code caused it to crash.
