Compiling tse
by Stephen James · in General Discussion · 09/08/2005 (8:26 pm) · 4 replies
I am having problems getting the tse to compile.
Let me first state, I am as much of a newb as they come. I have been dabling in xsi and maya, which led me to further studies in graphics and gameenginees. The others I have messed around with, usually come with built in editors that, for the most part, do it all for you. This is why I decided to get my indie license, with the versatility of altering code so easily, seems that the possabilities are limitless.
So I bought the license and the TSE. I purchased the MSVS C++ V 7.1 with the book. I downloaded and installed TGE, no problem. I downloaded the source code for the TSE, no problem. However, when I try to compile it in the above said version, following all the procedures. The dxsdk folders are all set where they are supposed to be. Everything should be fine. It is done to the T. But alas, when I compile. I get one lone error. cannot open file d3d9.lib and I am stuck. If anyone has seen this error before or understands what I may be doing wrong or if there is a corrupt file or whatever? Please help me resolve this $150.00 problem.

This is a new error I am getting. I reinstalled tse and uninstalled dx sdk it seemed to fix the problem,whatever it was, but the folder wa there auto. When I tried to find the path myself before I got those errors, now those seem to be fine. But now it won't build still, I don't think. It says success 5, 0 failed, 0 skipped. But i get that warning above. After I save the project it wont let me open it back up in visual. I deleted it and redownloaded tse, but now I have to wait till tomorrow, I have exceeded my bandwidth.. I have been trying for three days now searching google, andthese forums just trying to install this thing. I am getting extremely frustrated.
There was an installer with TGE, maybe they should put one with TSE as well. For guys like us that know nothing, but want to use these programs to learn. Doesn't help much and can't learn much when I can't even install it. : (

TSE is in early adopter mode, which is why we do not have a packaged installer.

As Forum Manager, we need this to go in the private TSE SDK forums...because I know code-specific posts are coming soon :)TSE is in early adopter mode, which is why we do not have a packaged installer.

Alright, how do I move this topic? Do I just need to repost over there? Or do you move it automatically? Got no problems with that, just want to get this thing installed. Will move this as soon as I know what you want me to do with this thread.

make sure that the library directory is first on the list. Also check in the directory to see if you even have the file...if not visit micro$ofts website and get it.
