Hi I am new to the engine and was running though how the states were setup.

I am trying to get them to work in my application but I am receiving linker errors.

The error i get is

Code:

1>------ Build started: Project: TheHunted, Configuration: Debug Win32 ------

1>Compiling...

1>IntroState.cpp

1>Linking...

1>Main.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "struct EE::State IntroState" (?IntroState@@3UState@EE@@A)

1>EsenthelEngine.lib(States.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "bool __cdecl Main(void)" (?Main@@YA_NXZ) referenced in function "void __cdecl EE::`dynamic initializer for 'StateMain''(void)" (??__EStateMain@EE@@YAXXZ)

1>EsenthelEngine.lib(States.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "void __cdecl Draw(void)" (?Draw@@YAXXZ) referenced in function "void __cdecl EE::`dynamic initializer for 'StateMain''(void)" (??__EStateMain@EE@@YAXXZ)

1>TheHunted.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 3 unresolved externals

My Code is

Code:

#include "stdafx.h"

#include "Main.h"

static Bool IntroUpdate()

{

//if any of these keys are pressed changed the state to the gamestate and fade 1.0 seconds

//if (Kb.bp(KB_ESC) || Kb.bp(KB_ENTER) || Kb.bp(KB_SPACE) || Ms.b(0))

//StateGame.set(0.5);

return true;

}

static void IntroDraw()

{

D.clear();

}

//pass the IntroState Constructor the functions in order

State StateIntro(IntroUpdate,IntroDraw);

I have it doing StateIntro.set() from the Main state so it switches to it....
I also checked my linker settings to make sure they were the same as the bloody massacre source

you look for:
unresolved external symbol "struct EE::State IntroState"

but you have:
State StateIntro(IntroUpdate,IntroDraw);

hey thanks for the response, i actually noticed that after i posted last night...
I changed it but still am getting 2 linker errors

Code:

Looks like its something with "StateMain" but I never created one? Is this an engine default state?

check the tutorials, (there is a tutorial for states)

Main and Draw must always be defined
