I'm still not getting anywhere on this. I've made my .bas file in the same directory as the .dll files and added a lib path to the lib directory where the .a files are found. I also copied the .a files directly into my compiler's lib directory. Whenever I try to compile, it just fails with: ..\..\fb...

TJF, I'm a little confused on how to use this. ; ) What files from the libtcod download do I need to have, and where do they need to be located in relation to your .bi when I include it? Do I have to manually include something else? Also, because I'm getting the line ending problem in fbEdit, I'm gu...

Dude, was this total coincidence? : D

I had just posted a question about this but hadn't the slightest clue how to go about making the header files... h_2_bi and swig failed me, so I was steeling myself to do it manually. What did you use to do it?

I've recently switched to FBEdit and in migrating projects over rediscovered Terraforma and how much I loved the idea. I need to flesh out some of the game concepts a bit further, but I'd say consider this under development again... It'll be my go-to project when I get bored w/ my FBGD competition d...

Mac user here, just chiming in to say I would absolutely love to use FB on the Mac. Does the compiler itself work on Mac or would I have to do development on the PC and just compile to target the Mac? Point me in the right direction and I'll be happy to test. : )

I'll go ahead and post this code I use in my projects, ported from SocketMud . It's a single linked list with an iterator baked in and functions to add / remove items or free an entire list or entire. There's an additional function to get the size. list.bi '* file: list.bi '* '* Headerfile for a bas...

Was poking at this a bit today, and I couldn't get swig to do much. It got this far on libtcod.h: #ifndef __libtcod_bi__ #define __libtcod_bi__ type uint8 as ubyte type int8 as byte type uint16 as ushort type int16 as short type uint32 as uinteger type int32 as integer type intptr as integer type ui...

Still cares? You bet! I was just looking over some old code where I was using your Dealing with Angles tutorials to make a game w/ the Tyrian graphics and HGE. : D

Excellent - I was going to ping you in your Roguelike thread after giving it a shot. I was also considering NaNoWriMo but am going to sit out (again) to toy with this and prepare a game engine for Lachie's latest compo. : )

Thanks for the info, will see what damage I can do. Glad to know I won't have to compile anything... my compiler/C-fu is weak.

FreeBASIC wrapper for libtcod, the Roguelike library

Hey guys, I'm really not sure where to even begin thinking about providing support for libtcod. I've never done any library wrappin', only a limited amount of usin' (mostly with HGE). The library contains a bunch of useful routines for Roguelikes and really any kind of game that needs randomization,...
