when to open new rendervindow?
« on: August 21, 2014, 03:05:38 am »
So I've made a game in which at start is shown Main Menu, and when I click game start user can clearly see that one window is closing and another one opening. How do you guys get rid of that transition. Am I doing something wrong?

Here is link to my game if you don't understand what I'm talking about: http://en.sfml-dev.org/forums/index.php?topic=16130.msg115346#new

Why don't you use the same window? :p

This

and that

are totally unrelated!

Why do you think you need more than one window? Please be a bit more elaborate than "split code in few functions"!

You should take a look at this example, maybe it will help you to understand why you don't need "2" windows in your case. (Just switch states/screens)

Thanks, but there isn't as much explanation as I need :).
This tutorial seems nice : https://github.com/SFML/SFML/wiki/Tutorial:-Basic-Game-Engine
