Need help finishing Game of Life assignment

[shywolf91]

Here is the Full assignment and what I have done so-far:
(1) The program will ask the user to enter a filename from the console. (Just like the last assignment).
(2) The initial configuration will be read in from a file, which will be a 12 by 30 two-dimensional array of characters. The game board will be surrounded by all O's.

Still need to do:
(3) The game will be played on 10 by 28 two-dimensional array. (Can you guess why?). A period ('.') will represent a dead cell and an 'X' will represent a live cell.

Here is my code:

//Game of Life
//Dylan Metz

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <fstream>
#include <cstring>

using namespace std;

//function(s)
void GetFile(); //Get filename
char MakeArray(); //Make 2d array 
char ChgArray(); //change the array
char GameBoard(); //Game Board
//Global Variables
const int ROW1 =12;
const int COL1 =30;
ifstream myfile;
string filename;
char live = 'x';
char dead = '.';
char name [ROW1][COL1];
//end of Global variables
int main()
{
int q; //stops terminal window from quitting	
//call functions
GetFile();
MakeArray();
ChgArray();

//Stop Program from quitting	
cin >> q;	
	
return 0;
}

//Other Functions
void GetFile()
{
cout<<"Enter the filename: \n";
cin>>filename;
return;
}

char MakeArray()
{
myfile.open (filename.c_str());
for (int r=0; r<12; r++)
{
	for (int c=0; c<30; c++)
     {
       myfile>>name[r][c];
        //cout << name[r][c];
      }
//cout << endl;
}
}
char ChgArray()
{
char name2 [12][30];
for (int r=0; r<12; r++)
{
	for (int c=0; c<30; c++)
	{
	   name2[r][c]=name[r][c];
//cout<<name2[r][c];
	   	}
	   	//cout<<endl;	
}

}

Here is what the output is supposed to look like (from hyper grade dot com)
