Good luck on your next project!
Gratz!
To change to release just click on:
Build -> Configuration Manager -> Click on 'Debug' change it to 'Release'. -> Rebuild your code which will create a new folder names Release.
If you want people to test your game when you have an .exe and image/sounds folders like you have now you can do this:
- Create a new folder on your desktop or anywhere you like: example "Pong_Game"
- Copy the .exe from the Release folder into your new folder: example "Pong_Game/Pong.exe"
- Copy your images/sounds/SFML/videos into your new folder: example "Pong_Game/Images/..."
Click on the .exe and you should be able to play your game. If not, a folder has wrong placed wrong in the folder "Pong_Game".
So you don't need all the headers, cpp's, sdf, debug/release folder, ipch files. Those files aren't needed anyway to be able to play your game.

My problem is that I use the SFML library, and when I try to automatically link the .libs it gives me an error saying it can't find them. So it won'trelease my game.
Congrats! this was also my first ever game i programmed mostly to get the grasp of c++ relating to game programming.

I just spent some time trying to get text working, but I have a problem:
I have a variable in my ball class that keeps the amountofhits, whenever I hit the paddle this increments. But, I don't know how to set my text equal to this variable:
MyString.SetText(variable);
doesn't work. Any Ideas?
(At the moment I am just displaying the number in the console.)

Is SetText a function u created or is it built into whatever game library ur using, if its one u created make sure ur returning the data properly in the function and that your function has the right datatype of string like this
class MyClass{
public:
string SetText();
};
im just assuming ur using a class this goes the same with plain old c++ functions though without a class declaration
