Have your Game class hold a Player object, and have a setPlayer() method in the Game class. Game class class Game { public: //Whatever code setPlayer(Player player); private: Player _player; } So now all you have to do is create a player object in your main.cpp or wherever, and than call the setPlay...

I tried to forward declare the classes, but now my game engine doesn't compile. I have an Engine.h that includes System.h that includes Entity.h. When I try to forward declare both Entity in System.h and System in Engine.h, I get this error: c:\programming\c++\splinter games\splinter sdk\splintereng...

I've decided to rename this thread so that if anybody has issues with designing a game engine, they can come to this thread to ask questions. I'm going to ask the first question. As you all know, I've been developing a game engine for the past few weeks and have been trying to implement a Component ...

That code works, but I also don't know if that's the best solution.

I have another problem with my game engine. I'm trying to implement a component system, but I can't get it to work. I have a base component class that's empty and a RenderComponent class that inherits from it and adds a char* called text. When I try to change the value of the char* I get this error:...

Well, I got everything to compile and link fine, the only problem is that I have to add SplinterEngine.lib SDL.lib SDLmain.lib SDL_image.lib SDL_mixer.lib SDL_ttf.lib to my linker settings and I have to set the subsystem to windows in my test game. Is there any way to get around having to do that a...

I've uploaded a .rar of both my engine and my test game to rapidshare. The folder is 7.7mb, so it might be a little slow to download.

the main problem is that I link SDLmain.lib in my engine and everything compiles/links fine, but when I test out my engine, I get this error ... It compiles and links fine until you "test out" the engine... Then it doesn't link right. What do you mean by testing it out? If you get a linke...

I can live with the user having to return a value in main(), the main problem is that I link SDLmain.lib in my engine and everything compiles/links fine, but when I test out my engine, I get this error: LINK : fatal error LNK1561: entry point must be defined This is my main.cpp: #include <cstdio> #...

I have been working on a game engine and have come across a few problems. Problem #1 In order to be able to use the regular main() function on windows with SDL, you need to use SDLmain.lib. The problem is, I want my engine to be as simple to use as possible, which means that I only want the user to ...

There's one that I really want to see, called Adam. From the bits and pieces of it that I've seen, it represents Asperger's Syndrome extremely good. I should know, having lived with Asperger's for 13 years.

#include <iostream> #include <ctype.h> //tolower() anyone? ;) lol hellz yeah int main() { bool exit=false; int i = 100; while (exit == false) { std::cout << "Welcome to the Elysian Shadows Word Game!\n\n"; std::cout << "Let's go dawg! Ready? (Enter Y or N)" << std::endl; char an...
