Window / SFML and hDC

« on: August 06, 2011, 03:51:26 am »

Didnt really want to open a new thread for a simple question so thought i would ask it here, when creating the openGL context, if using 3.x< can you specify to only load the core stuff?
or core and compatibility?

General / Any Released, Working SFML GUI's out there?

« on: July 29, 2011, 04:11:20 am »

I have used it in the past, and it is pretty easy/good i think.
It can use both SFML 1.x or 2.0

As for the documentation it is currently limited however it is on the todo list apparently that said the example projects give you quite a bit of information on how to use it.
Essentially you could build a gui system and use it on various platforms by just changing the renderer.

Worth noting that if you do try to use it then it might be worth cheking out its forum http://www.facepunch.com/forums/376-GWEN-Lightweight-GUI-Widget-library

Just my 5 cents but there is also Gwen, which is a C++ GUI made available for many API's (DX, OGL, GDI) but also includes a renderer for SFML.

http://code.google.com/p/gwen/

Its made by facepunch studios (guys that made GMod)

Window / SFML and hDC

« on: July 25, 2011, 10:07:46 pm »

Ahh, fair enough.
The reason I was asking was because I wanted to try a method of antialiasing.
Just out of curiosity when using windowSettings/contextSettings if I have antialiasing set does that work with pure openGL?

Window / SFML and hDC

« on: July 25, 2011, 05:28:23 pm »

Im trying to learn some OpenGL but I have reached the point where I would like to use functions and stuff that need the hDC or other low level things and I just wondered if SFML provides any way to get this?

Are you able to create windows inside the main window?
so make it like a virtual desktop?

Graphics / Get image subrect

« on: July 08, 2011, 03:37:34 am »

Hi, in my game I am creating an animation class,
The class will take in a spritesheet and on request return an image from that sheet.

However I am unsure as to how I can get part of the main image.
I did think of having a sprite which has the main image and then setting its subrect to what I want and then getting the sprites image, but from what I read this would just return the original image so I am not sure as to how I could do this.

I am also unsure of how I can get a sprites position after moving it.
If I use sprite::move then IIRC it moves the sprite to an offset from its original position, but when using getPosition this just returns its original position, so is there a way to get its current position?
Or would i just have to not use move and do something like:
sprite.setPosition(sprite.getPos().x +5, sprite.getPos().y -3);

Window / 2d to 3d on the run

« on: July 07, 2011, 06:37:15 pm »

Hi, I have an idea for a game and I just wondered if it would be possible.
For part of the game I will use normal sprites and images, but I would also like to use 3d stuff (models and such)
Now I only intend to have either 2d or 3d on screen in one level so I wouldnt be mixing it up.

Anyway I was just wondering is it possible to swap from a render window to a normal window without the end user noticing?

SFML projects / Map generator (perlin noise)

« on: May 25, 2011, 07:45:57 pm »

il have a look for them, but dont promise anything.
beware tho that if i do find it you will be in for a shock as im a very experienced C++ programmer so it is quite hackish.

Also sorry about the host, its currently being DDOS'ed hence the slow loads

Ahhh that worked great but now i get this error

CMake Error at src/SFML/CMakeLists.txt:22 (find_package):
  Could not find module FindSFML.cmake or a configuration file for package
  SFML.

  Adjust CMAKE_MODULE_PATH to find FindSFML.cmake or set SFML_DIR to the

C / Problem configuring csfml2 with cmake

The path to the gcc executable must be in the PATH environment variable so that CMake can find it.

Where exactly do i find it?
I have lookes all over the gui and in the cmakelist but cant find anything

Dont want to make a new thread for basically same kind of problem.
Im trying to use CMake to create Codeblocks files using MinGW, however specifying the compiler as TCC but i get these errors

CMake Error: CMake was unable to find a build program corresponding to "MinGW Makefiles".  CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM is not set.  You probably need to select a different build tool.

Graphics / Downsizing image without quality loss

« on: April 23, 2011, 07:48:54 pm »

Just wondering if theres anything in SFML that allows you to downsize without loosing quality.
In VS/XNA i use the generate mipmaps option in the content importer:



But i didnt  know if SFML had anything like it

DotNet / SFML 2 problem

« on: April 20, 2011, 07:20:03 pm »

Hmm It must be a problem with VS2010 or how I built it, I just downloaded the 1.6 version and it works fine
