Irrlicht Engine

i've downloaded Irrlicht 1.0 SDK and i tried to run "HELLO WORLD" from the examples that come with the download.

(I have Dev-cpp)

it compiled OK, but when it runs it says:

Warning: The library version of the Irrlicht Engine (0.14.0) does not match the
version the application was compiled with (1.0). This may cause problems.

then it says

example.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.


some examples run, others not...

no offense, but thats kinda to be expected...1.0 and 0.14.0 are completely different versions. anything that one does differently from the other is bound to cause problems in the runtime.

i forgot to say that i've never included 0.14 libraries...
also i deleted irrlicht 0.14 before getting 1.0.
( this was an important detail i fotgot to say)


can anyone help?

That's exactly what it said to me when I switched my game to Irrlicht's v1.0. But then I remembered that I forgot to switch the Irrlicht dll in the project folder. Now it works just fine.

In your case, include the correct libraries, the 'include' folder and add Irrlicht v1.0 dll in your project folder. It will work.

thanks, it worked! it was the irrlicht.dll like you said


it works in visual studio now, but not for Dev-cpp... try dev and see the big error.

mmm

sounded like it would be the dll. them stupid things never compile on my machine. i can't make it work with msvc++ or dev...

on what I believe to be a similar note, I've been trying to get Irrlicht to work with Code::Blocks. At first, I got about 12 errors and 57 warnings when attempting to recompile the Irrlicht library, so I did some poking around and found the "using Irrlicht with Code::Blocks" news item on the main site. Followed the instructions as closely as I could(the folders in question were, naturally, not in the same locations on my computer, but I'm pretty sure I used the correct folders).

Results: 0 errors, 14000-some warnings, and I had to cancel the compile in the middle because it was taking over an hour. Also, it was attempting to compile some of the additional libraries(not Irrlicht) that I had installed for support. Something tells me this isn't how it's supposed to happen. I suspect a combination of new version of Irrlicht, new version of Code::Blocks.

Any ideas? Anybody come up with a revised way to use Irrlicht with Code::Blocks? I haven't gotten any Irrlicht stuff to compile on it yet.
