Well...Here it is again, another problem >.<

If I run my client project in Debug Release mode it all works fine as i've coded it, as soon as I go and run the .exe myself (yes all media is where it should be in according to the .exe's position) half the sutff wont work.

Now that just doesnt make sense, doesnt running in debug release mode just compile to the release folder then run the .exe it makes there?


I don't even know where to begin debugging this one myself..
I don't even know what code to post >.<

2 folders:

Debug mode = Project/debug
Release mode = Project/release

Well, my 'player' object W is now backwards S is now forwards D does nothing any more A does nothing any more, holding right click and moving the mouse now only moves the view up and down, instead of up and down & left and right + moving the 'player' model left and right, just a few things that work when i do debug release, but not straight run the exe, Yes i am 100% positave all my media is in the correct spot to get loaded when i run the exe file, i dont get this mainly because it works when i debug->release.

Are you sure you are opening the same .exe that was created? Try changing something really obvious and see if it is reflected in the .exe.

Disable optimizations in project settings, sometimes they cause problems.

It is also possible that your code is buggy and causing memory corruption. There are differences in the way memory works between debug and release, which explains why it is okay in debug. Check through your code looking for buffer overruns, accessing deallocated memory etc.

I've disabled optimazations, still same problems. Also I haven't really stoped checking the code since I started this thread =P

EDIT:
ZOMFG I got it working!!!

The error was because for some reason the gdk/visual studio didnt want me to do a dbRotateObject in one particular area... what a wierd thing to make my project do what it did
