Thread: debug release conf problem

Hello!
I have a weird problem. My DirectX game works like it should only with debug configurations. With Release it does not. The same code works differently somehow.

When I try the release version, the view is frozen. The camera is follows my character in the game, but in the release version only the character moves.

Honestly I'm not aware of the differences of debug and release. I thought the debug version was only easier to debug and slower because of that. I think the problem might be caused of the configuration differences, but I unfortunately know nothing about them.

There seems to be no uninitialized variables in places connected to view. Although I didn't know that difference, I usually give them a value anyway, if it's important.

Are there more important differences?

I found out the problem and fixed it. It seems I've been lazy and written if(charname=="blabla"). It works perfectly in debug, but not in release.

one of the differencies between debug/release builds - debug initializes vars to 0

MSVC 2003 does not.
