Horde3D

Yeah, a new update for Mac came out, if you didn't notice. I am using a Powerbook G4. But this is my first time compiling Horde 3d. It seems that one of the samples gave me an error after I used CMake to generate an XCode project and compiled it. These are the errors I got:


This was in main.cpp in the Knight sample. I'm sure it's just a simple type mismatch for the Mac, anyone know the problem? I'm eager about using Horde 3d, and the first thing I want to check out is the samples, but I need them to compile. Everything else seemed to compile fine, including the Horde 3d library. Ask me if you need anymore information.
EDIT: Found the problem. Just needed std:: before string. Simple enough. Might want to fix that. I changed the code to show how it would be properly.

Well, sure enough it compiled. But I don't think I'm seeing what I'm supposed to on the samples. I'll attach a screen shot of what is happening. I am running a PowerBook G4 1.67GHz, 1 GB RAM, an ATI Graphics card with 128 MB RAM, ATI Mobility Radeon 9700.

Thanks for the bug report. Concerning the graphics error it is hard to tell what could be wrong, since neither nicolas nor I have a mac available. Does the error log provide some helpful information?

[edit] Regarding the std:: this is a bit strange because in app.h the following line should prevent getting such an error:

I have posted the build log in this paste bin so that it does not clog up this forum. See it here. Also, about the std:: thing, doesn't the using namespace std; have to be in the app.h file for it to work correctly? The other version below it used std also, I don't think that the using statement would have transferred over.

I'm a bit confused now. I thought I just checked the app.h and the using namespace statment was in there, but now it turns out it is in the app.cpp. Maybe I should sleep a bit more.

Well of course you're right then, in the main.cpp it should be std::string instead of string.

Concerning the log,... I ment the EngineLog.html file created by Horde3D when the samples are executed.

I think that's the problem. Here's the link. http://rafb.net/p/BWHlnY28.html

It seems like the resources couldn't be found. Please check if the working directory is set correctly to the contents directory.

Ok, I got it working. Thanks.

Is there anything special in the code that you had to fix to get it working?

No. When I used CMake, it moved the binaries to a different position(one I chose) than they would normally be executed from, I guess. I moved them into a different folder with the Windows executables, and the logo appeared when I ran it.

I haven't tried CMake on the Mac in a while, but it was generating the correct directory structure at some point in the past.

Unfortunately, it doesn't do a very good job of building Mac frameworks and executables yet (the CMake developers are aware of this issue).
