helo

#

did you link SFML?

#

it's the second image in the official tutorial

#

actually I guess just show screenshots of all the places shown in the tutorial

#

yeah those seem fine

#

you're linking to the static version

#

it has a -s suffix meaning it's the static version

#

yeah

#

no don't touch any dlls

#

just remove the -s

#

from the names

#

oh and make sure the configuration above is set to release

#

why

#

shouldn't the filename be sfml-system-2-d.dll

#

the -d should be at the end I think

#

not dll

#

but the -d should be at the end for debug

#

dawg

#

hold on lemme get on computer

#

back

You sure you want to do this and not use CMake?

#

It's not only more effort, all that effort will only be applicable for Windows + VS solution.

damn

#

visual studio is weird

#

cat_up

#

I don't think I did much but np

#

also you should listen to karnage lol

#

you should look into a build system

Aw that's a shame, but glad you got the DLLs working lol. If you'd like to migrate to CMake sometime, lemme know.

#

Or use meson

#

less terrifying ™️

#

I think we have some cmake resources in #1124619767542718524

Start another thread, it will be pretty simple, just need to spend some time understanding the fundamentals first.
