General / #include Puzzle

« on: June 21, 2014, 07:07:42 am »

Hi everyone. I am working on a game that has a lot of files. The problem is that I don't think that I am including the header files in the right sequence, so some of the classes are undefined. The files are Battlefield.h, Creature.h, Enemy.h, Button.h. I've spent hours trying to code it so:

Battlefield.h  has Creature.h, Enemy.h, and Button.h defined.
Creature.h    has Enemy.h and Battlefield.h defined.
Enemy.h       has Creature.h and Battlefield.h defined.
Button.h       has Creature.h and Battlefield.h defined.

Thanks in advance.

Graphics / Organizing Code with Load Texture

« on: March 22, 2014, 10:15:54 pm »

Hello everyone.
I am still a beginner on sfml. But I was wondering if there's a way to separate all the messy texture.loadFromFile("picture") with the rest of the code. Because Main.cpp is getting overloaded with this:

     sf::Texture texGoomba;
     sf::Sprite sprGoomba;
     if (!texGoomba.loadFromFile("goomba.png"))
          std::cout << "Error: goomba.png could not load" << std::endl;
     sprGoomba.setTexture(texGoomba);
     sprGoomba.setPosition(0,0);

So I tried putting all of that on to resource.cpp as a static member function,

     //resource.cpp
     void CResource::loadGoomba()
     {
          sf::Texture texGoomba;
          ...
     }

Though it's loaded on resource.cpp, main.cpp doesn't seem to recognize sprGoomba.
Well, if there's any better way to do this, any help would be appreciated.

General / Setting up SFML

« on: January 28, 2014, 04:36:20 am »

Hello everyone!

I'm quite new to sfml 2.1 but I can't manage to even pass the first step: the set up. I went through the installation instructions almost ten times but when I run my program on visual studio 2010 I get these warnings:

C:\...\NewProject\Debug\sfml-system-d-2.dll', Cannot find or open the PDB file
C:\...\NewProject\Debug\sfml-window-d-2.dll', Cannot find or open the PDB file
C:\...\NewProject\Debug\sfml-network-d-2.dll', Cannot find or open the PDB file
C:\...\NewProject\Debug\sfml-graphics-d-2.dll', Cannot find or open the PDB file
C:\...\NewProject\Debug\sfml-audio-d-2.dll', Cannot find or open the PDB file

I put my working directory to C:\...\NewProject\Debug so I thought that might work but it didn't.
I know there's probably something I did wrong or I'm just bad with dlls
Either way, any help is appreciated!
