:: nope - grabbed the super mario war makefile - still gettting SDL_main linker errors. severely frustrating that it "should" work, or it "works for person x" but the steps needed to actually '''make''' it work are either missing a critical step or are a function of chance more than anything...

::: Sorry, programming is not a "function of chance". If it is...then you need to learn how to program! If you're getting an error about SDL_main it's probably the common SDL error people get (not specific to the Wii), caused by not having int main(int argc, char *argv[]) defined, but rather some variant of that instead. --[[User:Tantric|Tantric]] 17:09, 26 July 2009 (UTC)

::::the source code i used is 100% copied and pasted from this tutorial, and it does not follow the convention you describe. clearly something else is awry, because (1) i doubt the author would post impossible-to-compile code, and (2) changing the code to match what you (and many others online) have described does not fix the issue. please do not confuse my unfamiliarity with this toolchain for a lack of programming ability - the function of chance i was referring to is in configuring the toolchain and sdl_wii libs...[[User:Madmanguruman|Madmanguruman]] 21:16, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
