GP2X New Gp2x Game Almost Finished

[reiboul]

Hi all!

As I'm wish to learn SDL, I started coding a game some days ago.
As I have most of the functions working I plan on a first release, but I never succeeded in compiling anything for the GP2X... I had another thread, but started this new one with a more eye-catching title, asking for someone to compile it and tell me how he did it, because I have very little experience at compiling (I tried to use Open2x toolchain)

Here is the source!

By the way, I also need some clean graphics, if anybody is interrested in drawing a better scrolling background, and a logo for the game (which I call Tower2x at the moment, never really thought about a name )

Not sure if this helps but here you go. Moved some code around so its all in the main file for now
Had to disable 2 lines of code cause it made the game exit its main loop fast.

(SciTE + Devkit2X i used to compile it. I have compiled it for windows (tested) and GP2X (not tested))

it looks like the rar is corrupted
Blah told me about bg1.bmp which is corrupted (only 1 file bg.bmp is required) and header.h missing!
I will check this out this evening at home, as well as your archive Ksmiler thank you very much!

			{
			// then handle player and print it
			done = ( p.physics(screen, obj) || done);
			if (done) p.currentClip = 6;

			}

Those lines are usefull, at least in the releases to come
done is the bool that exits main loop, either by pressing q (or start), which is handled in the event loop, or by falling on the fire, which is the value returnes by player:hysics(screen, obj)
more, you can't move the player if you don't call for it's physic function

Actually it is useless because the physics never return true. I disabled it for testing
Also, if the game is over, you change the character's sprite

Blah also told me he didn't find the header.h! But you don't seem to ahve problem, as the archive you sent back is complete

What interrest me also, is to know exactly how to compile with open2x, because I won't ask everytime I need to compile somethin and I already did some changes since the last time I uploaded!

Anyway, good day to you

Hey Ksmiler your build works flawless!! I'm very pleased to see my first game working on the GP2X too bad the character can't move because you disabled the physics
Now if anybody can tell me how to compile this on Open2x (or any other IDE easily installable on Ubuntu) it would be damn cool for me

Many thanks for this 'proof of concept' build Ksmiler First release very soon!

Open2x toolchain should work like any other gnu toolchain, just prefix everything with "open2x-" (ie open2x-gcc) and use $OPEN2X/bin/sdl-config, etc, etc.

But I guess you knew that.

Unfortunately all I know about g++ is g++ main.cpp -o name I copy-pasted on the internet the command to compile with SDL on my PC, but can't get them working for the GP2X
I tried many commands like
open2x-gcc -c -Wall -I/usr/local/open2x/include `/usr/local/open2x/bin/sdl-config --cflags` demo.c -o demo.o
open2x-gcc demo.o -o helloworld.gpe `/usr/local/open2x/bin/sdl-config --static-libs` -lgcc -lm -lg -lpthread -lSDL

but they all barely works, from black screens to white teared and buggy screen (if they ever compile)

That's why I need your help on this, guys

w00t! I finally compiled this f***** game

I used this command:!

open2x-g++ Main.cpp -L"/usr/local/open2x/libs" -I"/usr/local/open2x/include" `/usr/local/open2x/bin/sdl-config --cflags --static-libs` -static -lSDL -lSDL_ttf -lfreetype -msoft-float -lm -lg -lpthread -static -o out.gpe
