i THINK i tried it a long time ago but it didn't work and there's no support for it. so i think you're better off with visual studio

You should download the Code::Blocks SDK. Code::Blocks is like Dev-C++, but more advanced, also free and open source, and regularly updated (get the latest nightly build for Windows). I've used it extensively, and it is quite simple, to download, install and use. Since it is based on the latest MinGW (GCC) it is a full-featured, standards compliant C++ tool chain, just like VC++ Express.

Ok, I downloaded the OGRE SDK (a long time ago, but have been very busy with school)for code::blocks and installed it. I make a new OGRE project, but when I try to compile it says it can't find -OgreMain or something like that.

what do I do?
