I don't see any difference in the download link. Still the same size so I doubt they have updated the 2008 build files yet. Wow, its taking them more than 2 months to upload it. I don't see anything hard about uploading a file. What's taking it too long then? But I'll download it. Just maybe, it already have the updates. I'll post a reply about it when I finished the download.

This are the list of errors in your 2008 build files.. Hmm, this has been almost a year and still it is not yet fully resolved. I think Adding just the VS 2008 build files wont do. Try building yours to see.

The 2008 build files are available for download. But it's still a joke. I think what you actually did here was just convert it to 2008. Anyone could do that. The problem is the errors it has. It can't even build a release out of the box. No codes were edited yet. I feel hopeless and regretful of purchasing the product. I even purchased AFX combo pack just to get this ISK but it's still useless. If the Out of the box itself is not working fine.

I'm not getting the mouse errors, but I am able to scroll in and out of zooming 3rd person and snapping to first person. However, if I use the Tab key to switch 1st/3rd, the camera stays stationary when back in 3rd person view.

I've gone through the script files and commented out ISO and substituted AFX camera and view lines to make it close to the AFX, save for the problem above and the mouse look control, which I'm looking to get rid of next. Basically, I'm back to working on getting the camera and controls to be like AFX... if you can offer any advice.

my email is janreiviardo@yahoo.com.ph, or you could also just post a thread on the fixes for errors and warnings. You could not include already those fixes made by Jonathan Wood. But if you have better fixes than him. Please. Send or make a thread and tell me the link to it. Thanks Timothy.

Timothy, Can I get a copy of those build files as well? Please send to trsjr70@yahoo.com
Not sure if your spam guard filtered out my message to you, or if you just haven't had time yet. In any case, thanks.
