[UNRESOLVED] [GAVE UP] SFML 2.0 Freetype issues

[wademcgillis]

SFML 2.0 RC keeps crashing when I use sf::Mouse::isButtonPressed. I thought updated to a newer version would fix this, but it gave me more issues with sndfile and freetype. I eventually gave up and resorted to using the windowing events. The end.




Hello. My game fails to start up now because freetype is unable to be found, this was using the latest code from github.

Exception Type:  EXC_BREAKPOINT (SIGTRAP)
Exception Codes: 0x0000000000000002, 0x0000000000000000

Application Specific Information:
dyld: launch, loading dependent libraries

Yes, I am using the freetype framework that comes with SFML.

I have tried using the frameworks built with the Makefile and built in Xcode, to no avail. Yes, the framework is in the copy frameworks build phase.[/s]

Have you tried using a precompiled version of SFML? Several versions are available here: http://www.mjbshaw.com/p/sfml-nightly-builds.html for Xcode. You might be able to find one that works. I know from personal experience ( ) how frustrating it can be to get started with SFML, but there are tons of resources out there to make getting it up and running pretty easy. Hope this helps!

I wasn't getting started using it, I was just trying to update to a version newer than the RC so the keyboard & font rendering issues could potentially go away. Since I couldn't get a more recent version to compile, I gave up and made a workaround for the keyboard issue in the RC. Sure, this means whoever bought the game won't get fullscreen anymore, but I don't think anyone really used that.

There's still the font rendering issue though.

Your project is simply based on the old templates. You have to create a new one with the new template to fix that issue.
