I Could Use Some Guidance Options

[Kaboneislegend]

Ok so ive been looking around for a long time for tutorial or anything to get me started on making homebrew apps and games for the original xbox. yes i know the system is old. but i have been wanting to make an xbox game. so basicly my question is where should i start? if i know C++ what else do i need? I have an XDK visual studio 2003 and SDK software. any help would be much appreciated! Thanks

If you download the files of IrrlichtX, there is inside a folder named "source", that is the folder that you must compile. The result that you get is not a .XBE (executable for xbox), but a .LIB (a library that you will be able to link and use from your games).

Maybe you are trying to compile the upper folder, which contains a sample HelloWorld program, plus the IrrlichtX library and other dependencies that IrrlichtX needs... If you give us more infor about the error, maybe we can help
