No matter what I do, I cannot get an sf::Text object to draw without the app instantly crashing. Been plagued by this problem for months. I've asked reddit, stack overflow and even here. I'm hoping for better results, because I have no idea what else to do to make it work. I have reinstalled both code::blocks and sfml. I installed sfml and Code::Blocks on a different pc, same problem. I have tried different fonts, same problem. All other SFML features function exactly as they should.
I'm using Code::Blocks v17.12 and SFML v2.5.1
If I comment out
font.setFont
, it will run (though not draw obviously). If I comment out
renderWindow.draw(testText)
it will run without a crash.
If I run debugger I get the info that the problem file is C:\Windows\SysWOW64\ig4icd32.dll. I've tried looking that up, but get nothing related to my problem.
Any help is appreciated. Also, if anyone knows a work around, I would appreciate it.
