Story of the game

Ok then what you linked me to is the wrong thing it uses sdl not opengl let me do a little searching.

Here are three links to tutorials in: Making a Powerful 2D Game Engine Using OpenGL

Part 1: http://www.dreamincode.net/forums/index.php?act=Attach&type=post&id=2290
Part 2: http://www.dreamincode.net/forums/index.php?act=Attach&type=post&id=2291
Part 3: http://www.dreamincode.net/forums/index.php?act=Attach&type=post&id=2292

Okay i think i gave you the link to the first one but could not find the other 2.

Those links i just posted comes from the link you posted about making a game engine, at DIC

But it does not tell you what type of thing to make it in, like a clr, win32, or general. I think he should have told us that it is hard to put it in right without knowing.

I think you're supposed to use an C++ IDE that has a compiler, i use bloodshed dev-c++ ide.

it can be download at: http://sourceforge.net/projects/dev-cpp/files/Binaries/Dev-C%2B%2B%204.9.9.2/devcpp-4.9.9.2_setup.exe/download

I was talking about what type of app to make.

Oh well, i guess we should find a different tutorial, i'll try searching

having read the second post here: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20090523012240AAIEtuH , i think it will be ALOT better to use an engine that already exists.

here we are talking about making our own game engine without the slightest knowledge of C++, i think we will be better off starting with a game engine that already exist.


Here are some other links i found about making a game engine:

For you about the knowledge that may be true but i have learned alittle if i can just get my mom to leave me be so i can learn more

alright, i'll find a book about the basics of C++ and start reading, and in the meantime we should find a game engine that fits the profile of the game we're trying to make.

Ok nevermind about the game engine i just figured out where the code goes it is supposed to be in a console app

*facepalm*


You already got the answer, you're just not listening! Use an IDE with a compiler to compile and run your code! XD

I know but i don't know how i am supposed to do it so i can use it and there is not much support for it. Like the troll 2d which the support has some adult content not relating to the software there.

There is all kinds of support for IDEs! Just type in the code in the code window of your IDE and then compile! Not that hard really. :p

I'm not talking about ide's i'm talking about engines.

The engine is just a library! It's not necessarily an application... >_>

I know i am trying to find if orx will do anyting for me once i figure out how to use it.

#include orx.h

orxClass.orxMethod(type parameters);

Hey milleja, let me clear something out for you, the engine will not make the game for you, its just something that will make the game runable, the engine will not have an IDE, you WILL have to put in the code yourself.

and for the compiling, learn by doing, i learned it that way, try to learn something on your own, instead of just asking for support

I know but i have to find out how to use it for that purpose.

alright, to compile it you will need an IDE which can compile them, there should be a main C++ file in the folder, if there is, open it with an IDE and debug it, thereby it will be able to run, if the engine is supposed to run after debugged.


Bloodshed Dev-C++ has a compile and debugger, if you have it, you can compile/debug the engine, ask if you have further questions

okay i want you to take a look at the new topic i created plz. I will look at it too but look at that and the information in the topic i posted.

wow didn't see that i am going to try that once i get on my laptop.

XD that was a generic example of psuedocode. >_> It won't do anything.
