Game development in OGRE C++

Question

I had successfully compiled and run the tutorial mentioned at ogre3d.org. It compiles without any error.

In that tutorial i used http://www.ogre3d.org/tikiwiki/tiki-index.php?page=Setting%2BUp%2BAn%2BApplication%2B-%2BVisual%2BStudio to setup OGRE in visual studio 2010. I used a tutorialframework mentioned in that. I had changed the configuration properties when setting up OGRE project.

My Questions are:

1. Do i need to change configuration properties for all projects?
2. Why did Tutorialframework used in tutorial?
3. What files i need when starting a new project in OGRE?

Answer 1

1. Yes
2. Think of it like the skeleton to your application. Every single tutorial application uses the same properties; even load the config with the same name (unless you change it)
3. Once you go through all the tutorials and understand how OGRE operates, you will understand what files you need.
