Graphics / Re: Unhandled Exception Error with Texture

« on: June 12, 2013, 07:51:11 pm »

Update: actually it does work when I include the full C:/... directory . So I think it's a problem with the Working Directory. Does anyone know how to fix the Working Directory to load images from the Resource Files folder in the project? (I'm assuming that's where I should put my source images??)

I think it's a problem with the way I set up visual studio with SFML. I have problems linking it statically, but I managed to fix some stuff. I got the error to disappear. However, now I am stuck with:

Failed to load image "image.png". Reason : Unable to open file.

Doesn't even work when include the full C:/ ... directory. Hmm... Now to try and fix this...

Graphics / Unhandled Exception Error with Texture

« on: June 12, 2013, 03:26:34 am »

Hello lovely sfml community. First, let me apologize if the question I'm about to ask is considered "stupid." I am fairly new at sfml/c++, having been dabbling in other programming languages in my free time over the past few years. Anyways, I seemed to have stumbled onto a problem. It seems that I cannot load texture images from a file! After finding the source of the problem in my code, I isolated the issue. I removed all other code paths so that only the following code should run, considering it is the main() function. However, the following code does not even work:

#include "stdafx.h"

int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{
        sf::Texture texture = sf::Texture();
        texture.loadFromFile("image.png"); //This line is the source of the error. The file "image.png" exists, I assure you.

        return 0;
}

I receive the following (very scary) error:

Unhandled exception at 0x6CCDDEF8 (msvcr110.dll) in MyGame.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x00D41000.

Then, Visual Studio directs me to line 367 in the file "memcpy.asm"

        rep     movsd           ;N - move all of our dwords

I honestly have no clue what is going on  . I've isolated the issue and don't know where to go from here. Any help is greatly appreciated!

DotNet / Re: Where are the System and Networking dlls?

It looks like you're right! Never thought of that, I was so confused about why in the world I didn't have them. I'll look in .NET to find the functionality I need, thanks!

Please forgive me if I'm doing something stupid, but I would really like to use the classes in the SFML-System module lol!

DotNet / C# SFML Visual Studio - Error on Build

« on: June 03, 2013, 03:20:07 am »

Following the steps given on this thread (http://en.sfml-dev.org/forums/index.php?topic=7674.0), I managed to setup SFML.Net 2.0 with Visual Studio C# 2012. However, I get the following error whenever I actually try to build something that references the SFML library...

An unhandled exception of type 'System.BadImageFormatException' occurred in mscorlib.dll

Additional information: Could not load file or assembly 'sfmlnet-graphics-2, Version=0.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies. An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format.

According to this page (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.badimageformatexception.aspx), the file image of the sfmlnet-graphics-2 DLL is "invalid."

The exception that is thrown when the file image of a dynamic link library (DLL) or an executable program is invalid.

Any ideas about what I may have done wrong?
Thanks!

EDIT: After some more research it appears this is a problem with discrepancies between x64 or x86 builds (http://en.sfml-dev.org/forums/index.php?topic=9917.0). If I change the CPU settings to "prefer x64" (I am using 64-bit SFML), then the build succeeds. So my question is what happens if my user wants to run the game on a x86 system? Do I need to include DLLs of both x64 and x86 versions of SFML? How do I do this?

EDIT #2: Here's yet another thread about this issue (http://en.sfml-dev.org/forums/index.php?topic=2405.0) but, my question remains. What is the permanent solution?
