allegro

[funkydude9]

I need an allegro library for games. I have MVC++ 6.0 and i have no clue how to put it in my directory or install/use it. Could someone help me out?

I thought I'd post here rather than start a new topic, but would Allegro work with C++? I only found tutorials in C...

C++ has pretty much everything that C does, so you can use allegro with c++. The homepage for Allegro is http://www.talula.demon.co.uk/allegro/. I do not know how to use Allegro with Visual C++, but I am sure you could find something searching google.

I like www.allegro.cc , it is updated more often.

And if you look on the internet a little you can find tutorials on installing it. If you are too lazy to do that, find the pre-compiled self-installer.

but when I try to write a allegro code it compikes fine but I get this weird error when I try to run it. I copy and pasted it from a tutorial and it is spposed to diplay a little message box that says hello world but it doesn't
