First of all, if you haven't, try adding [CODE=C++] #include "poeni.h" [/CODE] at the top of the 'Tocni' file, and instead of [CODE=C++]System::Windows::Forms::Form^ Tocni = gcnew IgraBobi::poeni;[/CODE] (I'm guessing you're trying to show "poeni" from "Tocni", or maybe the other way round, I dont know) use this: [CODE=C++] poeni^ Tocni …

In some cases, the 'switch' function may help you. [Code=C++] #include <iostream> using namespace std; int main() { char UserChoice; //Declare 'inputSection' for the goto statement, // used further down inputSection: //Tells the user to enter their choice cout << "Do you want to continue? [Y/N] :"; //gets the user's …

[CODE]cout << " \n"; char letter; cout << "Enter a letter to end the program:\n"; cin >> letter; cout << "Goodbye.\n"; return 0; }[/CODE] I know this probably isn't going to be much help to you, but it's way easier and simpler to, instead of having to type a random …

What I'd recommend that might work is, if you look back at the previous code, instead of switching to a million different buttons and textboxes, use System::Strings instead. So, instead of saying 'if( textbox1->Text == "Jimi" ) etc, you should declare one System::String, Just above the "pragma region Windows Form …

I started using console apps, the good old 1-file 'int main()' codes... Console apps help you get the basic concepts and format of the code, so that way you're ready for Forms apps, and Visual C++. But when you're done that book, If you're looking for one that gets you …

Well, I have to say that using C is absolutely fine for game making, and C++'s OpenGL is great too. However, as jwenting said, [QUOTE]programming a game isn't something for people with no experience in designing and creating software. [/QUOTE] I second on that :P
