Engine recompile box

by Michael A Bocchi · in Torque Game Engine · 09/10/2008 (5:57 am) · 2 replies

We just recompiled the T3d 1.5.2 engine and now when running the new exe a dos window comes up and displays nothing as the game window also comes up and plays normally. Is there any way to get the dos window not to come up when running the .exe file?

It sounds like you did a debug build rather than a release build. In a debug build the dos box is always displayed (and performance will also be affected slightly). If you recompile using the 'Release' setting you will get proper performance, and get rid of the dos box. However, you then lose your ability to debug (I only ever do a debug build when something is going wrong anyway!).
