WinBlitz3d and SCHNOK!

Blitz3D Forums/Blitz3D Beginners Area/WinBlitz3d and SCHNOK!

Hey guys. Im trying to make a simple program with the SCHNUK! editor for WinBlitz3d, But when I export the code and try to run it I get various errors such as a window titled "API_InitializeGUI" with error written in it and another window titled "ERROR: Blitz Class name" with the text "CLASS NAME ERROR" in it. Then when I click okay to both these errors I still have a small blank window opened which I have to Alt+Ctrl+Del to close.
Anyone know what the problem is?

Hi weetbix,
Do you get this error with everything you try with WB3D (=maybe not correcly installed?) or just in one situation (=schnok problem?)...
When you export code in Schnok do you use the 'Test Program' preset or another one?

If you email me the schnok file [dendanny (at) xs4all (dot) nl] I'll have a look at it. But it sounds like an installation problem. Make sure the dll and wb3dstyles.bb are in the folder where your exported .bb file is.

@Weetbix, does the included examples compile and run? what version of blitz3d are you using?

Embarrasing but, I fixed it. I was simply double clicking on the .bb files which opens my OLD blitz3d the unupdated one. Thanks for your help guys.

Although I'v fixed this I'v run into another problem. What do I use to display text? I have a track bar and I want the value of the slider to display next to it. You cant change the text of a label so that rules them out along with edit fields. And when i try to use a text field and set the text of if using :

WB3D_SetTextAreaText(FL_Wheelsize,WB3D_GetTrackBarPos(FL_Wheelsize_t))

It doesnt do anything.

Hi Weetbix

Try WB3D_SetGadgetText()
