Need help on Step 2 in the Game tutorial on HaxeFlixel.com
-
Originally this was my problem -- > when I was clicking the blue arrow to Test Project I got an error saying 'This project doesn't have a valid SDK defined. Please check SDK tab in the Project Properties.".
I fixed it by Installing the Flex SDK from Install Software. However once that got solved I still kept getting a Build failed when I tried to Debug in Flash.
Then I closed and reopened Flash Develop and now I am getting the following error right from the beginning:
Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
at AS3Context.PluginMain.ValidateSettings()
at AS3Context.PluginMain.HandleEvent(Object sender, NotifyEvent e, HandlingPriority priority)
at PluginCore.Managers.EventManager.DispatchEvent(Object sender, NotifyEvent e)Also I'm getting an error in the output box at the bottom saying:
haxelib.exe not found in SDK path
And now when I try to Test Project I get this error as well :
Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
at HaXeContext.PluginMain.HandleEvent(Object sender, NotifyEvent e, HandlingPriority priority)
at PluginCore.Managers.EventManager.DispatchEvent(Object sender, NotifyEvent e)Do you guys have any ideas? I am running Flash Develop on an iMac 2013 thru Crossover.

FlashDevelop on a Mac might not be the best experience. Have you tried VSCode?

Thanks for the input. I've now switched to try using VScode to do the tutorial, and it seems a lot smoother, but now I'm having problems setting up the gulpfile.
I've finished this much of it:
var gulp = require('gulp');
var browswerSync = require('browser-sync').create();gulp.task('default', ['debug']);
gulp.task('build', function() {
return gulp
.src('./*/.cs')
.pipe(msc(['-fullpaths', '-debug', '-target:exe', '-out:' + program]));
});gulp.task('debug', ['build'], function(done){
return mono.debug({ port: port, program: program}, done);
});gulp.task('sync', function() {
browserSync.init({
proxy: "my_project.dev",
files: ".css,.php,css/*css"
});});
I just copy and pasted it from the docs on the vscode website and now I'm getting this error:
[19:37:04] Using gulpfile ~/HaxeFlixel/FlixelTut/gulpfile.js

but now I'm having problems setting up the gulpfile.
I'm not sure what you mean. Where does the tutorial mention anything about a "gulpfile"?
