Ops :oops: Copied the platform SDK files to the include and lib directory but completely forgot about the directx sdk. I have copied the directx SDK files which seems to have reduced the files. I still seem to be getting a few errors and lots of warnings. I have attached the full compile log and jus...

Seem to have fixed the cURL problems but I still haven't manged to compile it 100% yet

/edit attached compile log because it went over the message limit

Copied the includes / libs.

Are there any problems apart from the one with cURL which I haven't sorted out yet?

/edit: snipped old build log

I have installed the Platform SDK but I am getting the same error. I am assuming this is because it hasn't added the files to the right place or set the path variable correctly. I tried the "add pdsdk directorys to Visual studio" link but that didn't seem to work probably because the PDSDK...

I assume by Windows SDK you mean the platform sdk?

I'll download them and see what error I get next

anyone?

Thanks. Hopefully I should get my VS2005 CVS working soon and then I won't need these anymore :lol-old: I played b5 for a while now that my internet connection is working and lag free. The only problems I get is when starting and exiting the game the screen goes black for 10 seconds like the PC is g...

It is probably just some lag on my side or something as I don't get the problem in 2.0.x

I played around with it a bit more. The only issue I am having is that the sounds lag severly. The wav files are what they should be.

Is this an issue with the way I have compiled it or the CVS?

Right thanks. Just took my ages to learn how to compile on Dev-C++.

On Dev-C++ the libraries go in C:\dev-cpp\lib

Where do I put them with Visual Studio?

Thanks

/edit: I think I put the cURL files in the right place.

Have birthday Bzflag!

No more stable releases for me, CVS all the way

Thanks

It has compiled fine, thanks for all your help.

Some questions.

1) How can I compile without SDL (and use ?OpenGL instead)?

2) At the moment I have the 2.1.x line. As well as having the latest build I would also like to be able to use the latest 2.0.x. How do I set this up in tortoisecvs?

Used the files from the package you gave me (which updated my cURL from 7.14 to 7.15.) Still got the same error but I updated CVS and now I get: C:/Dev-Cpp/lib/libmingw32.a(main.o):main.c:(.text+0x106): undefined reference to `WinMain@16' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make.exe: *** [../src/bzf...

Updated CVS. Now I get the error: ../src/bzflag/clientCommands.cxx: In function `std::string cmdScreenshot(const std::string&, const std::vector<std::string, std::allocator<std::string> >&, bool*)': ../src/bzflag/clientCommands.cxx:647: error: `DIR' undeclared (first use this function) ../sr...

It is but that error still occurs

Well -lcurl was already there before I tried adding ld.exe again.

Or do you mean -lcurl on its own?

I had added -lcurl back as I deleted the Dev-C++ files and then got them again from CVS. In the project options in dev-c++ it does not have ld.exe shown, but I think that is because it hides it. I will try adding it anyway. Current linker info: -lmingw32 -lstdc++ -lsdl -lcurl -lares -lws2_32 -ldsoun...

Thanks again. libares.dev had a few warning but it built fine. A new compile on bzflag now throws up: ../Dev-C++/cURLManager.o:cURLManager.cxx:(.text+0x1dd): undefined reference to `_imp__curl_easy_init' ../Dev-C++/cURLManager.o:cURLManager.cxx:(.text+0x23a): undefined reference to `_imp__curl_easy_...

Thanks lan. I did indeed get the cURL files from curl.haxx.se. I will try your files in the correct location and see how I go! An update: I installed copyed the files over for SDL. I also found that it is possible to install them through the dev-c++ package manager. I now get the error: cannot find ...

Has anyone managed to compile 2.0.x CVS with VS2005?

If so how?

Thanks

I tried removing -lsdsl (as I could use the alternative. Is is directx or opengl :?: ) It then said it couldnt find -lcurl. Removing -lcurl caused it to crash. Looks like there is some sort of problem with the dev-c++ files (or I have the SDL and curl files in the wrong place :oops:) I would really ...

OK I have the following SDL files: begin_code.h close_code.h libSDL.a libSDL.dll.a libSDL.la libSDLmain.a SDL.c SDL.h SDL_active.h SDL_audio.h SDL_byteorder.h SDL_cdrom.h SDL_copying.h SDL_cpuinfo.h SDL_endian.h SDL_error.c SDL_error.h SDL_error_c.h SDL_events.h SDL_fatal.c SDL_fatal.h SDL_getenv.c ...

I already copied over all the SDL files I thought were required. Where do I put the librarys (in case I have done it wrong)?
