Author Topic: Images do not appear on the screen when debugging my program. (Read 2426 times)

Hello, I am new to this so just bare with me. I am building the program Zombie Arena from the book Beginning C++ Game Programming and for some reason when I enter debug mode to run the game, no images appear on the window. I checked each line to make sure that there were no errors and the syntax is correct. My libraries are linked correctly and the path to my image folder is correct, I just cant seem to figure out why my images aren't appearing on my window. When the game runs all I see is a black screen, and when I ALT-TAB to check the debug window there are no errors that show up. If anyone can help that'd be great thanks.

Do you check what loadFromFile returns?

well then, we'll need to see the code.

what if you're not in debug mode ?

what if you build the exe and run the exe directly --- outside of the IDE
