I didn't crash yet...

Um....

open your SC_Collision.h file... and add this line...

#pragma once

...to the VERY FIRST row in the file so the top of the file looks like:



Life is good.. problem solved.

LOL... um... why 3 places?

that doesn't make sense. And In my experience with sparky, when I got those redefition errors, the pragma line addition solved it!

LOL.. but doesn't mean you aren't getting those errors from something else.

P.S. I personally put the sparky include in the include file dir that DarkGDK uses, same for the *.lib file.. goes where the darkgdk libs are.. that way no config.. just plug-n-play more or less.

Because it wasn't working with one... or two... and apparently it doesn't work with three either...

I have them there but everywhere you can possibly put them... just to be safe...

Any ideas what that something else could be? If you don't I could always figure it out on my own... Plus I don't ABSOLUTELY NEED to run... It was just to help me get a hold on what the source code was trying to do...

Your linker error indicates that you're trying to mix debug libraries with release libraries. I'd check that you are building a Release build, and using release libraries.

The libraries have somewhat of a naming convention:
libcmt.lib = C runtime static multi-threaded release library.
MSVCRTD.lib = Microsoft VisualC++ Runtime static Debug library.

You know what... it compiled! And you know what else... the samples didn't even come with source files so I got a Sparky collision setup error message 'cuz the objects didn't exist...

Wow...

Something is wrong. I had a couple snafu things to overcome when I first installed it and tried the demos... but I got it working and then was able to use the code as a guide to how you're supposed to use it. It's been pretty smooth sailing.

Nothing is wrong... Not with the compilation at least because it compiles perfectly in release mode... But as it is the package (the on I have at least) doesn't include the media files (level1.x and something else) used in the sliding collision demo...

It compiles great but during setup SC can't find object 1 because obviously it doesn't exist and gives me the object not existing error...

I'm going to suggest making a new project with the Wizard/Template, and copy all of your files over.

That would explain:

Well that might solve the link problem but the problem that the source files aren't included with the pkg still remains... I'm gonna go re-D/L and see what happens...

Does anyone mind running any of the demos to see if they work... I re-downloaded SC but once again the media files are nowhere to be found...
