Yeah the DLLs located in the SFML download folder inside of "bin" need to be placed next to the exe build of the game

Updated
The codes a little bit messy though

@eXpl0it3r
I do plan to refine the tutorial, as this will just be a first draft, basic inventory system. Do feel free to modify parts if you feel like it, as it's a public tutorial
@Acrobat
At the moment I don't really understand, but I'm tired so I'll look at it again in the morning. But do feel free to put it in if you want to

Cheers Xenir! A better way to put a little more efficiency into it. I'll remember to put this in when I update the Wiki tutorial for better reading.
As for the class, indeed it could pretty much just be put into one by dragging and dropping it. But I'll leave that to the person looking at the tutorial.

General / Re: Should I use 1.6 or 2.0?
« on: July 11, 2012, 07:01:31 pm »My recommendation is, use SFML 1.6 first, get used to programming for a few weeks with the simpler version, then when you're ready, move to SFML 2. As you'll have a bit more experience with working with SFML 1.6, it won't be as hard to migrate.
I think it can be rather confusing to start with SFML 1.6 and switch later on...
I hope it's not that hard, I've yet to delve into SFML 2 :O

My last update for this page, I'm going to work on a side scroller shooting game (like metal slug) but obviously not as good! I'll be learning SFML2 first, then work on this new game, you will hear from me within the next few weeks!

Ah, will do
I'll build upon it as well, make it a little more readable.

Exactly the same situation that I was in when I found SFML. I'd only just begun to program and between the two, SFML 2 looked a bit more complicated and back then, I was creating a game on a deadline, so I went with the easier option.
After using it for several months now, expanding that project, I've come to the end of that and I'm deciding to use SFML 2 when I start my new game. Andrei is right, SFML 2 is more advanced and when it comes down to when you need support, people mostly use SFML 2 now.
My recommendation is, use SFML 1.6 first, get used to programming for a few weeks with the simpler version, then when you're ready, move to SFML 2. As you'll have a bit more experience with working with SFML 1.6, it won't be as hard to migrate.

General / Basic inventory tutorial (SFML-1.6)
« on: July 11, 2012, 02:01:48 pm »
Hey, I've thought to make a post with the inventory system that (as a beginner) I'm fairly proud of. Just a little disclaimer, if you're a good programmer then this post won't be of use to you, as you'd be able to come up with a totally better system including pointers, iterations etc etc. This is programmed in SFML 1.6 but can easily be updated to SFML2! I also know that things can be done a lot better than how I've gone about them.
This post is more aimed at the newer people to SFML, whom have gone over the first tutorials but are seeking out examples of such.
Down to business.
For my inventory system, I had a total of 6 functions: InventoryDisplay, InventoryAdd, InventoryRemove, InventoryUpdate, InventoryEquip and InventoryUnequip as well as a few global variables.
The first thing to do is to create some items to work with; this is using the normal sprite creation tutorial.
--- Global Variables ---
I'll now shed some light on the global variables:
Here we have an array for the inventory slots (48 of them), some more arrays for the different items then integers for Gold, then equipped armours and weapons.
Slot[48]: I use this array to tell the program which slots have been taken. We'll focus more on this in InventoryAdd.
Item1Have[3]: This array is for Item1 and has 3 values of 0. Item1Have[0] is to tell the program if that item is in your inventory. Item1Have[1] stores the slot that it is in. Item1Have[2] tells the program if it has been equipped.
The rest are pretty self explanatory.
--- InventoryDisplay ---
This is the function to call when you press the inventory key:
NOTE: It's to note that inventory spaces are 32x32 and the massive if statement is check whether the mouse is inside any of these spaces, then it changes the variable 'i' to reflect which space is being hovered over or 'e' for an equipped piece of armour.
I'm not going to go through everything here (unless someone is confused), but look mainly at the way I equip, unequip or delete armour.
--- InventoryAdd ---
Here is the way to add an item to the inventory. To actually add something to the inventory during the game, just call InventoryAdd(2) the number being the item.
The way this works, is it declares some variables, then it going into the while loop (while (i < 49)) then it goes through each slot and asks if it's available, if it isn't, then 'i' is incremented and then the next slot is tested for availability.
If a slot is available (lets say i = 2 so slot 3 is available, then it puts x and y to where slot 3 is, then it gets the ItemID, sets the position of the item, tells it that it's been added, puts in the slot it's been added to, fills the slot then ends the function with 'return 0'.
--- InventoryRemove ---
--- InventoryUpdate ---
--- InventoryEquip & InventoryUnequip ---
Whereas, the InventoryUnequip does the exact opposite:
Hopefully this can help some of the beginners of SFML (and coding) to give them an idea of one way to implement a basic inventory. Remember to change it to your project's needs!
EDIT: Fixed some formatting.

int Item1Have[3] = {0,0,0}; int Item3Have[3] = {0,0,0};
int Item2Have[3] = {0,0,0}; int Item4Have[3] = {0,0,0};
int Gold = 0;
int SwordEquipped = 0; int OffHandEquipped = 0;
int BracersEquipped = 0; int HandsEquipped = 0;
int HelmetEquipped = 0; int ChestEquipped = 0; int LegsEquipped = 0;Here we have an array for the inventory slots (48 of them), some more arrays for the different items then integers for Gold, then equipped armours and weapons.

else { Description.SetText(""); scrollOver = 0; }NOTE: It's to note that inventory spaces are 32x32 and the massive if statement is check whether the mouse is inside any of these spaces, then it changes the variable 'i' to reflect which space is being hovered over or 'e' for an equipped piece of armour.
I'm not going to go through everything here (unless someone is confused), but look mainly at the way I equip, unequip or delete armour.
--- InventoryAdd ---
Here is the way to add an item to the inventory. To actually add something to the inventory during the game, just call InventoryAdd(2) the number being the item.
Code: [Select]
int InventoryAdd(int ItemID)
{
int i = 0;
int x = 0;
int y = 0;
while(i < 49)
{
if(Slot[i] == 0)
{
if(i == 0) {x = 55; y = 210;}
if(i == 1) {x = 95; y = 210;}
if(i == 2) {x = 135; y = 210;}
if(i == 3) {x = 175; y = 210;}
if(i == 4) {x = 215; y = 210;}
if(i == 5) {x = 255; y = 210;}
if(i == 6) {x = 295; y = 210;}
if(i == 7) {x = 335; y = 210;}
if(i == 8) {x = 55; y = 250;}
if(i == 9) {x = 95; y = 250;}
if(i == 10) {x = 135; y = 250;}
if(i == 11) {x = 175; y = 250;}
if(i == 12) {x = 215; y = 250;}
if(i == 13) {x = 255; y = 250;}
if(i == 14) {x = 295; y = 250;}
if(i == 15) {x = 335; y = 250;}
if(i == 16) {x = 55; y = 290;}
if(i == 17) {x = 95; y = 290;}
if(i == 18) {x = 135; y = 290;}
if(i == 19) {x = 175; y = 290;}
if(i == 20) {x = 215; y = 290;}
if(i == 21) {x = 255; y = 290;}
if(i == 22) {x = 295; y = 290;}
if(i == 23) {x = 335; y = 290;}
if(i == 24) {x = 55; y = 330;}
if(i == 25) {x = 95; y = 330;}
if(i == 26) {x = 135; y = 330;}
if(i == 27) {x = 175; y = 330;}
if(i == 28) {x = 215; y = 330;}
if(i == 29) {x = 255; y = 330;}
if(i == 30) {x = 295; y = 330;}
if(i == 31) {x = 335; y = 330;}
if(i == 32) {x = 55; y = 370;}
if(i == 33) {x = 95; y = 370;}
if(i == 34) {x = 135; y = 370;}
if(i == 35) {x = 175; y = 370;}
if(i == 36) {x = 215; y = 370;}
if(i == 37) {x = 255; y = 370;}
if(i == 38) {x = 295; y = 370;}
if(i == 39) {x = 335; y = 370;}
if(i == 40) {x = 55; y = 410;}
if(i == 41) {x = 95; y = 410;}
if(i == 42) {x = 135; y = 410;}
if(i == 43) {x = 175; y = 410;}
if(i == 44) {x = 215; y = 410;}
if(i == 45) {x = 255; y = 410;}
if(i == 46) {x = 295; y = 410;}
if(i == 47) {x = 335; y = 410;}
if(ItemID == 1) { Item1.SetPosition(x,y); Item1Have[0] = 1; Item1Have[1] = i; Slot[i] = 1; return 0; }
if(ItemID == 2) { Item2.SetPosition(x,y); Item2Have[0] = 1; Item2Have[1] = i; Slot[i] = 1; return 0; }
if(ItemID == 3) { Item3.SetPosition(x,y); Item3Have[0] = 1; Item3Have[1] = i; Slot[i] = 1; return 0; }
if(ItemID == 4) { Item4.SetPosition(x,y); Item4Have[0] = 1; Item4Have[1] = i; Slot[i] = 1; return 0; }
}
i++;
}
}
The way this works, is it declares some variables, then it going into the while loop (while (i < 49)) then it goes through each slot and asks if it's available, if it isn't, then 'i' is incremented and then the next slot is tested for availability.
If a slot is available (lets say i = 2 so slot 3 is available, then it puts x and y to where slot 3 is, then it gets the ItemID, sets the position of the item, tells it that it's been added, puts in the slot it's been added to, fills the slot then ends the function with 'return 0'.
--- InventoryRemove ---
Code: [Select]
int InventoryRemove(int ItemID)
{
if(ItemID == 1) {Item1Have[0] = 0; Slot[Item1Have[1]] = 0; Item1Have[1] = 0; return 0;}
if(ItemID == 2) {Item2Have[0] = 0; Slot[Item2Have[1]] = 0; Item2Have[1] = 0; return 0;}
if(ItemID == 3) {Item3Have[0] = 0; Slot[Item3Have[1]] = 0; Item3Have[1] = 0; return 0;}
if(ItemID == 4) {Item4Have[0] = 0; Slot[Item4Have[1]] = 0; Item4Have[1] = 0; return 0;}
}
This then removes an item from the program supplying an ItemID when the function is called. It resets everything to tell the program that that slot is now free for another item to fill it's place.--- InventoryUpdate ---
Code: [Select]
int InventoryUpdate()
{
Health.SetText(convertInt(Stats[0]));
Mana.SetText(convertInt(Stats[1]));
Stamina.SetText(convertInt(Stats[2]));
Defense.SetText(convertInt(Stats[3]));
MagicResist.SetText(convertInt(Stats[4]));
PhysicalAP.SetText(convertInt(Stats[5]));
MagicalAP.SetText(convertInt(Stats[6]));
}
--- InventoryEquip & InventoryUnequip ---
Code: [Select]
int InventoryEquip(int ItemID)
{
if(ItemID == 1) { SwordEquipped = 1; InventoryRemove(1); Item1Have[2] = 1; Stats[5] += 1; InventoryUpdate(); }
}
This will equip the certain item, in this case, a sword. It changes the variable SwordEquipped to 1, to tell that that slot is taken then it removes it from the inventory, changes the Item2Have[2] variable to show it's been equipped then gives the stat change and updates it!Whereas, the InventoryUnequip does the exact opposite:
Code: [Select]
int InventoryUnequip(int ItemID)
{
if(ItemID == 1) { SwordEquipped = 0; InventoryAdd(1); Item1Have[2] = 0; Stats[5] -= 1; InventoryUpdate(); }
}
Hopefully this can help some of the beginners of SFML (and coding) to give them an idea of one way to implement a basic inventory. Remember to change it to your project's needs!

I have an ATI card too :O
Yeah, I've heard of headers and sources, but after a little attempt of implementing them failed, because of the amount of global variables and that :/ I kept it all together as that was the way it worked.
Yeah in the battle system, I hadn't implemented my function for int to string conversion as that was put in from the old game.
Reinstalled all drivers from driver pack solution like I normally do.
I think I might go with converting it to SFML, look more into classes and OOP and split stuff up. Will also give me a break from making the resources because that was super boring hahaha

Hey, a week ago, I reinstalled Ubuntu alongside windows in order to see how it'd run a few games, in the end decided to switch back, as a 256mb gfx card isn't going to run games that smoothly under wine. In the end I went back to Windows 7, and decided to work a little on my game. After compiling the exact same file that had been working before I installed linux, it built fine and started up, but when going into the game, the movement doesn't work, nor does Inventory or party display :/
I've tried loads of things, as I really wanna get this working and even after reinstalling Windows 7 this morning, it hasn't solved anything.
I was wondering if anyone on the forums could look at the code and help me with this, otherwise I'm most likely to either scrap it & make a different type of game, or I might even try and recode it to SFML2 if I feel like doing that.

Anyone that can contribute to helping, I thank you dearly!
EDIT: My best idea is that something is running over the maingame function, as I've put some couts around and they don't call when pressing a button. Plus, clicking a few times on the screen will make it not respond.

Nice game! As well as the problems mentioned, when you jump and hit something above you, it will continue to hold you there until the jump loop has finished. Maybe this is by design but if not, you could make it bounce back down when colliding with an object above the player!
