I'm following this tutorial on youtube: [this video] and he links a video on how to install SDL2, I follow that video, and I followed this one as well. But when I compile it keeps coming up with SDL2/SDL not found? I'm not sure how to fix this Here is my code so far MAIN.CPP #include "Game.hpp" Game *game =nullptr; int main(int argc, const char * argv[]) { game = new Game(); game->init("Nijigen-Engine", SDL_WINDOWPOS_CENTERED, SDL_WINDOWPOS_CENTERED, 800, 600, false); while (game->running()) { game->handleEvents(); game->update(); game->render(); } game->clean(); return 0; } Game.cpp #include "Game.hpp" Game::Game() {} Game::~Game() {} void Game::init(const char *title, int xpos, int ypos, int wi

Try to reference to the complete path of the image, atleast that's how I got it working: SDL_Surface* tmpSurface = IMG_Load("/Users/markcash/Documents/C++ Code/SDL_test/Assets/player.png"); playerTex = SDL_CreateTextureFromSurface(renderer, tmpSurface); SDL_FreeSurface(tmpSurface); I should note that I'm using the libraries: #include "SDL2/SDL.h" #include "SDL_image.h" in my project to make use of the IMG_Load() function. Try to see how you can implement those libraries into Xcode: here's a video that should help you in implementing SDL.h into your 'framework': [this video] The process for adding the "SDL_image.h" library into your framework should be the same. SDL2 can be downloaded from here: [

I did initialize the window and the renderer while following the tutorial, but it didn't still gave the same error. Also, here is the tutorial in question: [this video] Going to go over it again to see if I missed something along the way.

I'm currently using this tutorial: [this video] But I've been getting this error on the first line that I don't know how to address as a beginner. It says it's unresolved externals [LINK] I've been trying to look at some of the windows config advice, [LINK] but I don't know how to apply it to this tutorial. here's the code: #include "Header.hpp" Game::Game(){} Game::~Game(){} void Game::init(const char* title, int xpos, int ypos, int width, int height, bool fullscreen) { int flags = 0; if (fullscreen) { flags = SDL_WINDOW_FULLSCREEN; } if (SDL_Init(SDL_INIT_EVERYTHING) == 0) { std::cout << "Subsystems initialized" << std::endl; window = SDL_CreateWindow(title, xpos, ypos, width, height, flags); i

I am aware there are questions with similar posed questions, and I have checked both here [LINK] and here [LINK] , but neither question has posed solutions that seem to solve my problem. My subsystem is set to Windows (as suggested in the other posts). I am using Visual Studio 2022 and installed vcpkg [LINK] and its libraries today. Some of the solutions suggested making changes to CMake, but I am using vcpkg and am totally unsure how to implement these solutions. I apologize if this is something simple; I am new to SDL, and am following a YouTube series to learn. This is the exact same code as the series I'm following along with, but the code compiles correctly in the video [this video] . I'll i
