[Sticky] ---- RULES: READ THIS FIRST!

Post by chili » April 11th, 2012, 12:40 pm

Welcome to the forum! Feel free to ask questions about my tutorials, say 'hi', tell me what a swell guy I am, or just share your furry snuff porn links here. I've made sure to take a detailed inventory of all the silverware and collectables, so as long as you don't deficate too prolifically in the corners, we should get along just fine.

If you're looking for help on the tuturials, or just on programming in general, make sure you post your code (zipped and cleaned solution) and give any relevent information about your setup. It will make the process go that much smoother/quicker.

See the wiki page for more details.

Below is information for those following the old tutorials to read.

Cleaning a Solution

Post by chili » July 8th, 2012, 2:18 pm

Posting Code / Cleaning a Solution (OLD SERIES)

The best way to post your code is to zip up the solution folder and attach it to your post. However, the solution folder usually has over 50 MB of junk in it that you don't need to send. So before you zip up that folder, follow the steps listed below to clean that junk out of the trunk!


How to clean:

Just delete the following files and folders if they exist (all paths are given relative to the root path of the solution).

Folders:
Release
Debug
Chili DirectX Framework\Release
Chili DirectX Framework\Debug
ipch

Files:
Chili DirectX Framework.sdf

If you delete these items before zipping, your zip will be tiny and everyone who downloads your code will only have to unzip and then double-click on the .sln file. 8-)


P.S. You can also run this .bat file in the solution folder and it will clean the project for you. Big thanks to Asimov for making this.
