Post here the problems you have installing the engine.

I've got no visual cpp, can't I just do it with the dev-cpp? :huh:

you can try but i doubt it will work.

i think it's a good idea anyway, to switch to a professionnal IDE.
and besides, it's free.

well, I would be forced to install first sp2(while my xp is illegal)

and second, my pc isn't that great, when my new computer is being able to start, I can finally do that...

.....end december <_<

whoo!
Illegal?
You naughty boy! :angry:

but why do you need to install SP2 then? :)

sp2 has a security thingie, when I was about to install it, it said that I couldn't install it..
and I need sp2 to install the visual program...<_<

and I've got an illegal win xp, cause after I bought two times winxp, well...

I'm not feeling to buy it again ;)
(I'm the sort of guy, that likes to format its computer about once in the two/three months...) :D

you don'T need to buy another winxp when you format your computer ... so where's the point ?

Yes, I dont get that one too. Just use the same CD then.

And why the hell would you format you're comp once in the 2/3 months?!?!?! :blink:

a clean pc runs faster, smoother, and has less bugs ... except if you know how to manage windows well enough to not have these problems ...

I've never had one spam message on my pc, never a notworking program...
I've got never problems of viruses...

And I didn't buy the xp cd, it was installed on my pc, when I've bought a new one...
those idiots didn't gave me the cd with it...

and maybe formatting once in the 2/3 months is a bit sane, but I do it atleast once
at 4 months ;)

it's illegal to sell a pc without the xp cd ... or at least, a recovery disk...

oh ... and i installed everything perfectly on my pirated windows xp old computer ... and it works perfectly ...

if u'r not a Linux user ^^ no viruses or pop ups woohoo!

Except i dont use Linux ^^

Mine didn't come with the cd.

How do you get the idea it's illegal not giving out windows XP discs when people buy a comp?

you bought winxp with your computer .. you have the right to have the disc.

if you bought it with it yes

I have encountered this many time, the ones who put the computer together buys one windows XP disc for every machine they create.
So the buyer actually buys a computer with an illigal windows XP, but they don't have to pay for the windows XP.
So you don't have any rights I believe :) .

In the U.S., you get the PC with Windows preloaded. No disc.

Stupid US :P

Well, did you páy for windows XP too or was it put on your comp for free...

comes with it. didn't pay.

Yes, but the computer itself costs more because it's preloaded on there.

Cheers,

right.

I get this man, I've followed the install instructions to the letter.

Maybe it's my msvc++ that's not configured correctly or something.

I've got all the Includes and Libraries in the nIrium folder in my root directory for the sdk, I've set the options in msvc++ how you said. Maybe I have missed something?

Alright, found your problem ...

you don't seem to have some default libraries into your projects ...

that's ok.

just go into :

Project->__ProjectName__ Properties->

(do the same for configuration : Release and Debug)

Configuration Properties -> Linker -> Input -> Additionnal Dependencies
(click on the 3dots button)

add the the end of the list these 3 libraries :

user32.lib
ole32.lib
advapi32.lib


------

i'll fix this in the next release ... as soon as i have some time :P

Nice work, very quick reply also cheers man. Worked a treat after I added those lines like you said.

Hey back at you lol :D

Ok so what can this do? I'm interested to see what I can do in the nIrium so far.


EDIT[]

This is the log from the game so you can see what it said now it's running:

I don't know why I'm putting this here lol, just doing it so you can see it when on another machine. I've edited, I put the wrong one there lol.

type "ENGINE." and an "intellisense" popup should come ...

(if you don't see one, try to compile the program once ... if it still doesnt work, just cry and pray so that it works :P)

in it you can see most of the functions, with a brief description :



----------------------

Blue squares are instancied objects .. you use a dot like any object :

ENGINE.INPUT.

---

Purple squares are methods that are called like any functions, with parameters :

ENGINE.INPUT.MOUSE.X()


----------------------

It's sure i'll be making a tutorial for my engine .. but right now you could EASILY do a pong game with the ENGINE.GRAFX.DRAW.Rectangle() :D

Wicked man, this looks very nice indeed. Can't wait for that tutorial when you got the spare time man. Keep up the good work and cheers for the help !

I'm gonna have a play with this for a bit see what I can come up with.

Hurray for "intellisense" I say. :D

This looks like it could be very nice indeed!

would it be possible to get a quickscript for a few things, say creating a few variables and using them with say a mouse.pressed( what goes here?? ) snippet?

You know like say (x,y,w,h,col) then using them for the rectangle arguments(intX,intY,intW,intH,nIrium.........) etc so it's like (x,y,w,h,col) in there instead.

Oh yeah I drew a rectangle in red, wicked I'm a nooblet. Damn it's 7 am in the morning where the time go lol, oh well I might as well stay up now. :blink: (come on you lightweights lets get busy, you'll get enough rest when your dead hehe)

there's gonna be a little sentence explaining each function like the in the ENGINE. part...

and i'll do a massive doc explaining everything carefully...



BTW

do to colors, you should probably do them in hexadecimal format ... like this :

0xFFFFFFFF

where :

let's go to the other topic to talk about this ...

Ok yeah good idea. Onward to the project post (points his trusty steal).

goddammit!!!*cursing*

I got an error, so when I check the build log there stood this little piece of letters....

be sure you have the directory where this file is in your options->file and directories->librairies
