Hello everyone,
I've just started darkGDK and I'm trying to get sparky running. My problem isn't with the collision itself but when I compile something using these commands I get "Identifier not found" for each time I call the command.
I don't get it because I copied the dll and lib to the proper place and the sample included runs without problem.
Here's what I get with my own code:

Quote: "Build started: Project: Dark GDK - 3D Game1, Configuration: Debug Win32 ------
Compiling...
Main.cpp
c:documents and settingsnode-langloismes documentsvisual studio 2008projectsdark gdk - 3d game1dark gdk - 3d game1main.cpp(123) : error C3861: 'SC_setupObject': identifier not found

"


Any help will be appreciated!

Did you include the appropriate header file?

Yes I did:
Quote: "#include "DarkGDK.h"
#include "SC_Collision.h""


Sorry I should have said so.

Did you copy the Sparky collision library to the library folder in the visual studio program folder?

Did you call SC_Start( )? ( Or SC_Begin( )? I can't remember the name )

Nahh, that wouldn't happen. An "identifer not found" error typically means the compiler can't find any declaration for a variable or function he's using.

Although you should make sure you're calling SC_Start() as well.

Make sure you're spelling the functions right. Also C++ is case-sensitive so make sure that you use appropriate case for the function names.

EDIT:

Yep, it appears the casing is the problem. You're using SC_setupObject(), SC_updateObject(), etc. when you should be using SC_SetupObject() and SC_UpdateObject(). That applies to all the functions. The first letter following the SC_ is always capitalized.

Yes that was it, Thanks!
It would have taken me a long time to figure out, specialy because they are written without capitals in the help file xD
Thanks again
