I'll need some more time on this since I'm busy with other stuff (going to release ScummVM tomorrow probably).

I haven't tested it on Windows, but I know for sure it won't work without some changes. I also think I have some commits I need to push still. This is a good framework that I've used with my games, but I need to clean it up and I've been too busy lol.

Good to hear you are releasing ScummVM soon (maybe tomorrow :) ) and this is indeed a very good framework. I'm surprised by how little atention this has gotten. Hope that when you have more time you can also make it work on Windows!

Starting my journey with this framework, i think i'm going to port my simple cellular automaton as a test, i'm surprised how little attention this has got.

Hey. I just came across this library and love what you are doing with it as I have been learning SFML and have wanted to get into homebrew development on the 3ds. I installed the 0.3 release package from the cpp3ds github and downloaded the most recent template and was following your instructions on how to build it. I seem to be running into some issues when calling make. This is the error I am getting pastebin.com/V3LkQaWf

There are some quirks to the current build which is unstable, but the template should definitely compile fine.

For some reason it's not linking properly. Did you have the CPP3DS env variable defined? And could you run "make VERBOSE=1" so I can better see what's happening? It's clearly not linking it properly.

sorry for the late reply. I left town shortly after posting the message and didn't have my development computer with me. I ended up figuring out what the issues was. apparently when I used the script to setup devkitarm/devkitpro it was installed to a directory that required me to use sudo. but when i was using sudo my environment variables werent being used. everything is compiled and installed and running fine now. thanks :)

Man, this is awesome. Great work on this. Is this project still active?
Well, I still use it, but I haven't made much of an effort to iron out the difficult setup and make a guide to using/installing it. I probably should since I think it can be useful for devs.

It really looks useful! I watched the demo video you made and the coding syntax looks really straightforward. I hope you'll be able to get around to making a setup guide someday.

Congrats on 1337 posts :-)

I hope that you will continue to work on this. SFML is really exciting to have on the 3DS.
