Compiling TSE with Visual C++ 6.0 Professional

by James Thomas II · in Torque Game Engine Advanced · 02/09/2005 (11:56 am) · 27 replies

Just downloaded the precompiled version of the TSE and attempted compiling using Visual C++ 6.0 Professional (with Service Pack 6). I get 58 errors on the build. I am using DirectX9 SDK (December 2004) release and everything is setup properly. I had to add the Include Files. They were not present after the install of SDK. What am I doing wrong?

@Anthony - yeah you need the October update with the extras. You get the extras here: www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=d6f237de-a6ee-4ded-8bb6-139536...

DX is going to get more fun soon, with the latest update they moved D3DX to a .dll (all kinds of problems), and they also dropped support for win2K in the SDK. A lot of developers are complaining about the win2K thing now though, so they might revert that with the next update.

Well I got the most recent update and the fall updates. . .I found locations for 2 lib files, but there was a 3rd, a dll and a .pdb I did not know where to place and I got these errors

Linking...

OK

You must have UPDATE AND EXTRAS to run TSE on VS6.0


Besure to replace the 3 lib files. . .one thing to note when I ran the debug I got an assert saying I could not compile a vertex shader.

Probably due to my 1.1 card. I'll try to find the bugger.

wondering dose the TBE work with TSE?

I commented out the lines as suggested by Ben and all compiles nicely.
