getting .dol to execute

[laserbeak43]

hello,
I've been trying to get my code to work, it compiles fine with no errors or warnings, but when i load it, all i see is a blank screen for a few seconds then it exits. Does anyone think that they can help with this?
my .cpp

The build folder is already part of the include search path in the template makefile so you can use #include "board_png.h" instead of #include "../build/board_png.h".

As for just exiting, it's possible you just ran out of RAM, you're using an awful lot of png files there.

I've never used libwiisprite so I can't really say how effective it is but I'd suggest using sprite sheets rather than a whole bunch of images for separate files if the library supports that. You could also have a look at the gxSprites example and modify it for your needs. At some point I'd like to look at using fixed point texture co-ordinates in that example rather than the floats it currently uses, if you happen to try that and get it working a patch would be nice :p

The rest of the answers to this post were deleted because they were basically nonsense and had no bearing on your problem.

alright i'll open the gxSprites example and see if i can come up with something.

Thanks

[laserbeak43]

haven't tried gxSprites yet, but i did look at it looks haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaard. i did just try to load one picture and it did actually load. so i'm going to to see if i can just make some masks like you said.
