Build Demo errors - newbie question

by Harry Chow · in Torque Game Engine · 12/23/2003 (7:06 pm) · 4 replies

This is a newbie question. Before I compile demo of Torque, DirectX9 has been installed, include and library directories are both correctly in VC6. But hundreds of errors are reported when I compile the demo. I think it is a environment problem and who can tell me the answer or just give me FAQ link to check it?

Thanks a lot.

What is the first error you get during your build?

I have copied some errors here. My friends tell me that VC7 will be ok, but I don't know why and still want to use VC6. Thanks a lot. BTW, neither original opengl in VC6 nor glut downloaded from web is the fault reason.

I know I seem like a thorn in your side but....

After purchasing the engine you should be using the

Torque SDK Private Forums >> Getting Started

For all questions about "Getting Started"

Any other engine questions should be on one of the private forms.

(PS- I would try a build->Rebuild ALL - Seems some of your objects are old or didn't get compiled. If that doesn't work do a build->batch build. Check everything. Just some ideas.)
