What is a mes? Huh

As for reading a dll file... pretty simple to code your own ini class or, if your building an SSGM plugin, use the ini reading class it already contains (don't know the name off the top of my head as I am at work right now... search for header files with ini in the name perhaps?)

Alternatively use the Windows functions;

You would need

Struct mes {
     static Load(GameObject *obj);
};

In the gmmain.h

Compiles fine for me.

Use the code above i edited it again should work how you want it to just make sure you enter the ini file name in at the top of the code Wink

Im guessing the ini file should be

[NickName]
1=price
2=preset
3=hp
4=ap
5=skin
6=shield
7=powerups
8=screips
9=scriptparam

yea the ini is indeed like that

.\KB_Functions.cpp(717) : error C2513: 'mes' : no variable declared before '='
KB_Commands.cpp
.\KB_Commands.cpp(60) : error C2352: 'mes::Load' : illegal call of non-static member function
c:\documents and settings\robby\bureaublad\source\gmmain.h(154) : see declaration of 'mes::Load'

still have these erros

however if i dont call

mes::load(obj)

i can compile so i have to call it some other way, don't I?

put this under the struct in .h

extern mes *KB_ME;

then put this in .cpp file

mes *KB_ME = 0;

Then do

KB_ME::Load(obj)

Hope this helps

Why not just use INIClass directly, instead of SettingsLoader? It's inside engine_io.h and it's pretty simple to use. If you'd like to load lists of objects, let me know and I'll upload a modified engine_io with two extra INIClass functions that make it alot easier to do so.

/*
; lolhax.ini
[Section]
IntegerValue=42
FloatValue=13.37
BooleanValue=yes
StringValue=Can you hear me now?
*/

int integer_value = 42;
float float_value = 13.37f;
bool boolean_value = true;
char string_value[128] = "Can you hear me now?";

INIClass* ini = Get_INI("lolhax.ini");
if (ini)
{
	integer_value = ini->Get_Int("Section", "IntegerValue", 42);
	float_value = ini->Get_Float("Section", "FloatValue", 13.37f);
	boolean_value = ini->Get_Bool("Section", "BooleanValue", true);
	ini->Get_String("Section", "StringValue", "Can you hear me now?", string_value, sizeof(string_value)); 
	Release_INI(ini);
}

If you use INIClass (like you should), make sure it's in the Data folder...

if it cant open the ini it works but it doesnt when it tries to open the ini

i had placed the ini in both dirs

ive tried to send messages to pinpoint where exactly that the program crashes and as soon as it needs to open the .ini it crashes

OMG OMG i fixed it =D

Toggle Spoiler

if i implemented it as a normal function it stopped crashing =D final test was worth it thanks for all the help ^^
