I have just installed esenthel newest version on windows 8.
Tried a simple test by adding a new application "Test" and a new code "Main".




I also tried doing it the way tutorials explain but I think they might be outdated?

Differences from the tutorial:
Declarations of the objects

Gui is the GUI object; GUI is the class. C++ is case-sensitive.

Again, notice the use of 'text' and 'button' instead of 'Text' and 'Button'.

The blue color gives you a hint that it's a keyword rather than a variable, too.

I tried it like you said using only small letters for window, text and button but it doesn't fix the problem.

Did you add the declarations as well?

That seems to have made progress but still not working.
Also, am I correct then that the tutorials are outdated because it doesn't say I need to make those declarations in them?



I don't see where I am missing any ";" before line 17 and I'm also wondering what the first line in the output is about a warning: "Platform 'Emscripten'..."?

As I said:

GUI is wrong. It is used to declare a new GUI:
Gui is what you want. Somewhere in the engine is

And you probably have to make the window, text, and button objects global.

I would really recommend brushing up on your C++.

Yeah, I am a bit rusty, been a while since I used C++.
But I think it's a bit different here still since I don't really know how the engine works.. If their tutorial tells me to do something a certain way.. I could get the app running by changing that line as you suggested but it's just a white screen, didn't get any window or any ok button to press.. Tried making those 6 lines global but then I got massive amount of errors again.. If I could just get this basic app running then I believe I should have a much better understanding of how this engine works in it's "basic core".

Please put the variables "Window window" outside of the function, and place them in global space.

There are GUI tutorials included in the engine, I recommend checking them out.

Ah, I been such a dumbass really, there was nothing wrong with the tutorials, I was just rushing through them I guess.. Really sorry everyone, everything works now and I appreciate all the help
