Nickle Release 1

[dejai]

Hey guys I thought I would make a new thread for the release versions of the 2d puzzle game I am working on

[pritam]

The game froze for me

Instant startup crash

Win7 32-bit.

Probably of no help to you but whatever. Maybe the exception code could be useful? It's an access violation error. One of your pointers fouling up eh?

We have had issues with building a release version that will work on non-development computers, I personally cannot test the issue since I do not have another windows computer :/ Maybe it is C++ redistributable? Thanks for the quick response

Anything special about your project that might be a cause?
Have you tried to run the compiled exe directly instead of running from inside your compiler?
Is the release build exactly the same as the debug build except stuff like debugging and optimization and other non-relevant stuff?

I tryed this, the controls are kinda wierd but heres my result.

Windows Vista 32bit -> crashed on the menu first try. Then second try worked perfect.

Windows XP 32bit -> crashed on start-up. App Error: The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0150002).

My Mates Linux 32bit -> crashed on start-up first try, then crashed on start-up again.

I was trying to show my teacher the game I've been working on, and I can't seem to get release to work in XP, worked fine on my brother's vista, but I can't get it to run on my sisters xp laptop or my teachers XP desktop, I'll try yours out though :D

Edit: How do I select the stage? I've clicked it, and I've pushed I think every button.... I'm sure I just missed one... but can you plz help me out here? :D

Vista has some things that WinXP does not (A later .netframewok version, DX10, etc) Maybe one of these are needed?

[eatcomics]

That's what I was thinking, but would you know how to go about fixing those without needed to install things on my teacher's computer? The school frowns upon that...
but yeah thanks for the reply :D

[Live-Dimension]

First, you need to find out whats missing. You may be able to just simply include a dll in your release and it works, but check on the legality of that first.

[XianForce]

It is the RELEASE build and not the DEBUG build right? I'm pretty sure that VC++ has it setup so that Debug builds aren't meant to run on other computers...

Its release, and I've got the DLLs that make it work on vista and win7, and I can't find any references for WinXP so yeah... IDK
