Raylib not executing!!!

[mattackerplus]

Please help!!!

I really love this library because I'm a fan of C, and I've been making a game in it for the past 2 weeks. I had to reset my computer recently because of a little problem and when I tried to run the project I was working on it refused at first giving the exit code concerned with an outdated gpu i sorted that out then when i tried to run it after fixing that little problem it gave me yet another with the exit code 255.

It just plain refuses to execute the file, please do help me for I love using raylib and if you need anymore info please do say so.

Oh yeah Raysan is awesome and I really appreciate everything he has done.

ok, what is your GPU? how did you sort that issue? what version of raylib are you using? did you tried with core_basic_window.c example? could you paste the command line output?

I solved that problem using https://github.com/raysan5/raylib/wiki/FAQ, and I'm using a intel g33, I've always been using it and my raylib is 1.8, yes I did try it but no luck and here's the output:

> Setup required Environment
-------------------------------------

Current directory: C:\raylib\raylib\examples\core

NOTE: raylib uses OpenAL Soft library compiled statically and linked into the executable

Thanks for the swift response!

Sorry, I need the output console info of the program executing. Try removing -Wl,--subsystem,windows parameter from compilation and execute core_basic_window.exe from command line.

[mattackerplus]

Just seems to crash after I do that,sorry I believe I'm failing to properly follow instructions.

[raysan5]

On this compilation line:

gcc -o core_basic_window.exe core_basic_window.c -s C:\raylib\raylib\raylib_icon -Iexternal -lraylib -lglfw3 -lopengl32 -lgdi32 -lopenal32 -lwinmm -std=c99 -Wl,-allow-multiple-definition -Wl,--subsystem,windows

Just remove -Wl,--subsystem,windows.

And them execute a cmd (the console black screen) and launch core_basic_window.exe program.

Please, let me know if you manage to get it.

Here: 'gcc' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

[raysan5]

You need to edit the Notepad++ raylib_compile_execute.

[mattackerplus]

In what way exactly?

[raysan5]

when you press F6 on Notepad++, the window that appears contains a text script, just read it, look for -Wl,--subsystem,windows and delete that part.

[mattackerplus]

[mattackerplus]

That's all it does now

[raysan5]

did you try running core_basic_window.exe directly from the command line (the ms-dos black window)?

[mattackerplus]

[mattackerplus]

Still no luck :(

[raysan5]

ok, try running core_basic_window.exe directly from the command line (the ms-dos black window), not the compilation line (you're trying to run gcc -o core_basic_window.exe ...).

[mattackerplus]

[mattackerplus]

But I though I had fixed this problem

[raysan5]

ok, so, that's the issue, your graphic card does not support OpenGL 3.3, you need to recompile it for OpenGL 1.1. Just follow the instructions: https://github.com/raysan5/raylib/wiki/FAQ

Remember to set GRAPHIC_API=GRAPHICS_API_OPENGL_11

[raysan5]

just closing this issue.
