I suggest perhaps you forget about all this SDL nonsense and stick to basics until you feel more comfortable.
Maybe try to draw stuff with the windows.h header file (there's tutorials for this) or conio.h (there's tutorials for that too I think).
I recommend GDI. ;)
it seem every way i turn i stub my toe lol
ok i downloded microsoft visual c++
now how the hell do i compile the source codes lol
Copy the source code into the big white empty box and press the button "Compile". Capiche?
there isnt a compile button?
You need to create a project first, and then insert the source files. VC++ cannot (at least not in any obvious way I've ever discovered) simply coompile source files.
Alternatively, you could compile from the comamnd line.
ok so how do i compile a project?
im such a noob im sorry i found how to do it but now how to i make it an exe file or where is that file stored?
sorry for these noob questions
The executable is located somewhere in the folder tree of the project you created. Probably inside the debug folder (or release folder if you are building a release version).
ok i found it thank you
ok ive have another problem....
i can now compile and run some things but i get an error on a different project
