Coralis Visual Creator C++

Cristian · Post by **Cristian** » Sun Dec 18, 2005 4:36 pm

I've decided to create an Irrlicht exclusive tool, a C++ IDE made with running Irrlicht right after the setup in mind. No more, no less.
It will also include most (if not all) of the Irrlicht extensions and integrations, as well as some of my own, wizards for different types of games (for now only FPS, TPS action/RPG, FF RPG).
Maybe you'll ask "why your IDE, just because you've integrated Irrlicht out-of-the-box and added some extensions?" No. I'm also aiming at adding code completion that contains ALL of Irrlicht's classes/properties.
And yes it will be free.

AND DON'T ASK WHATR ABOUT YOUR OTHER PROJECTS (why did you think I made this ide in the first place?)

:):) I'm still working on them and I'll make a release ASAP

looks cool...what compiler does it use by default? How about some more shots.Keep us informed...it looks top notch...just what I need

minGW of course (because it's free to include inside).
But you'll be able to use MS compiler 2003/2005 as well.

Great to know! Some of my friends would keep off my back if they had this

It's me. I'm getting close to the deadline for a first release.

looks like a sad knock off of codeblocks

I'm really sorry you think that way

. I know it does not look original enough but even so, it's damn hard keeping an IDE project together.

I just hope I can do my best.

i think its nice that you do this - but i dont understand why, sorry

there are lots of free IDE´s available with more manpower than just you, so it would be better if you join the codeblocks team for example and help them with the IDE instead of doing another one.

but everyone is free to do what he wants so good luck with your IDE!!!

byebye!

@GFXstyLER" never thought of that... why not just modify an existing Open Source IDE and release a special IRRLICHT version?

Guest · Post by **Guest** » Mon Dec 26, 2005 1:49 am

why release a special irrlicht version? all irrlicht needs is properly setup linker and include paths, thats less than one minute of work, and therefore you need a whole irrlicht-version IDE

? nono, that can not be the right way.

and autocomplete should be possible with codeblocks or visual studio or devc++ too.

It's a nice idea Christian, but I think gfxstlyer is right. How many IDE's would there be if someone made a new one for every engine?
