About the Game

This game was created in c++ made with Simple DirectMedia Layer (SDL).

The program contains more than 5,000 questions in English, German and Hungarian.

In conclusion the game has a full version of English, German and Hungarian.

Important to know before start

  • The game was designed for hungarian play.
  • The original questions are hungarian so the english and german versions are translated with google translater -> There can be a LOT OF anomaly.
  • There is no memory leak according to the CrtDumpMemoryLeaks().
  • The "Windows.h" include was used in the program -> Game can be run only on WINDOWS.

How to compile and run the project form TERMINAL

  1. Download the Only Source Files project form my github.
  2. Extract the project and open the Only Source Files directory (You should be where the .cpp files are) then create a new directory named as src
  3. In the src directory create two new directories named as include and lib
  4. Download SDL, SDL_image, SDL_mixer, SDL_ttf libraries.
  1. Extract the downloaded libraries. Every library will contain an include and lib directories.
  2. From the SDL include directories move all the .h files to our project's src/include directory.
  3. From the SDL x64/lib directories move all the .lib files to our project's src/lib directiory.
  4. From the SDL x64/lib directories move the SDL2.dll | SDL2_image.dll | SDL2_mixer.dll | SDL2_ttf.dll libraries to our project's directiory. (These files should be where the .cpp and .h files are.)
  5. At this point you should see this.
Main Directory Src Directory Include Directory Lib Directory

  1. Open a terminal in the directory and compile the files with this command:
    g++ -Isrc/include -Lsrc/lib *.cpp -lSDL2main -lSDL2 -lSDL2_image -lSDL2_mixer -lSDL2_ttf -Wall -Wextra

  2. Run the a.exe file and you are ready to go.

Problem with Threads while compiling the project.

At the 10. step you might get an error like this.

Try this first

Compile the project with -pthread and -std=c++17. <br>

Problem

If the above advice did not work then it is likely that your version of the c++ compiler does not support threads by default. 
I used to have the same problem with this version of g++.

Solution

The solution was to download another g++ compiler with the posix version.
I downloaded the `prebuild MinGW-w64 x86 posix` version and everything works fine with it.
(With this version you don't need to use the -pthread and -std=c++17 operators.)

How to run Project from Visual Studio 2022

  1. Download Visual Studio 2022 and set up for c++.
    VS2022 c++ does contain thread by default so probably you won't get a thread error like the above
  2. Download the Visual Studio 2022 Version from my Github
  3. Create an directory named as SDL2 recommended in C:\
  4. Create an include, lib, bin direcory inside of the SDL2 directory.
  5. Download SDL, SDL_image, SDL_mixer, SDL_ttf libraries.
  1. Extract the downloaded libraries and move all their .h files from include directory to our SDL2\include directory. (C:\SDL2\include)
  2. Move all their .lib files from lib\x64 to our SDL2\lib directory. (C:\SDL2\lib)
  3. Move all their .dll files from lib\x64 to our SDL2\bin directory. (C:\SDL2\bin)
  4. At this point you should see this.
SDL2 Directory Bin Directory Include Directory Lib Directory

  1. Open a terminal and create a virutal disk using this command:
    subst T: C:\
  2. Open the Visual Studio 2022 project and you are ready to go.
