TGB fails to run...
by John Nichols · in Technical Issues · 11/29/2006 (4:00 pm) · 8 replies
Hi all,
Here is where I am at. I get a clean build of TGB with MSVC++ Express. When I choose run I get this:
Failed to open "main.cs"
then I click on OK and another info box pops up with this:
Failed to initialize game, shutting down.
Will someone help, HELP!
Thanks for reading.
By all.

C:\TGB\3\games\TGB_DEBUG.exe
FYI, here is a look at how I set up the TGB directories. When I need a new project, I just create a folder named "4" and copy the contents of the 3 folder into 4. I do things this way for convenience. My setup right now looks like this:
C:\TGB\3\engine\bin
C:\TGB\3\engine\lib
C:\TGB\3\engine\source
C:\TGB\3\engine\compilers\VisualStudio 2005\T2D SDK.sln //the solution file where is as is from garagegames
I ran the debugger and the executable crashes with a strange error message, it says something like "There is no code to execute here" I think. Here is the line of code where it crashes inside of the file winWindow.cc:
S32 retVal = run(argv.size(), (const char **) argv.address());
This line of code succeeds a couple of times, but at the third try I get that weird message at another place in yet another file. Thanks for having a look David. It is much appreciated. Bye for now.

Both of my executables are in my games folder. my engine folder is at the same level as my games folder. Here is the way I set up my files:C:\TGB\3\games\TGB_DEBUG.exe

You should ask this on the private forums since it relates to compilation and source code issues. I have not seen anything even remotely similar to that behavior, though.

Private forums? I am not familiar with that. How so?

Go to the forums page, and there should be a forum branch called TGB Private Forums. That's where you post engine questions and concerns.

Hey people GarageGames uploaded a new version of TGB PRO today! This may solve some of our compiler problems. Get it now!
