I didn't think so, I downloaded the latest snapshot from the downloads page, labelled SFML 2.0 snapshot.

Yes that's will just download the source to build the library, thus doesn't contain any binaries...
You need to download the release candidate (SFML 2.0rc).

Ahh cheers! My bad lol. Just need to solve the errors with libMy now

It appears I left out the .a and .dll files from the lib folder, but I've had to copy those from the sfml1.6, as they weren't supplied in the sfml2 RC, I don't know if this is okay or not.

No it's not ok. The .a and .dll files are there, which archive did you download from the website?

After that it threw up some really wacky errors:

You can take a look at libMy, although it's outdated and the code design isn't the best, also since sfmluploads is once more down, you can't download it atm.

Maybe you should put it in a .rar or .zip instead of .7z. I'm sure not everyone has 7-zip and it saves them having to go download it themselves

On the contrary, people should start using 7zip! I love it!

Don't get me wrong, I do love 7zip too! It's just that I know that some people don't like to install stuff on their computer, or they've got that god damn awful WinRAR ... :@

How did you pack your resources into .zlx files as well (plus loading them)? I'm intrigued, as that could really help me in my game so people couldn't see the images and that!

It seems like he's created his own format with his own loader and packer.

Hmm, If Nexus doesn't want to share, I may have to look into this

You could either look for some C++ code to hide the console window or you could build it to be a GUI application. I don't know about VS but in CodeBlocks you can change the properties of a project to build it as a GUI application (either in Release/Debug).

General / Re: Optimizing collision system

« on: June 14, 2012, 01:36:57 pm »

If you still haven't solved the problem this may be of help.

I was having problems with this a few days ago and came up with two solutions that on their own didn't really work to well, but together did.

One of them is to detect what way you're moving when you collide with an object and when that happens, (for example I'm moving right) knock out the move right function until you stop colliding with the collision boundary.

The second method I put to use was to push the player back by their speed movement plus 1. This would be achieved by:

Code: [Select]

goback = HeroUnder.GetPosition().y; Hero.SetY(goback - (speed + 1));
Together they pushed the player back a bit, plus if they do start touching collision somehow, then that movement is disabled. It actually pushes them back once, the character will come a few spaces forwards then stop, which actually looks like they've just come to a stop.

I'm not saying that this is the way to go and I know it's not the best method to deal with collision, but it may give you an idea of how to do it


EDIT: try thePyro_13's method first. It sounds a lot more efficient
