I do have them all in the same dir

Bah.. we need a complete write up on how to do this I guess... problem is that if someone is building this one would expect them to know how

aye... they should know how to do it, if they're going to do it. that's part of the weeding out process.

Sorry I'm not a programmer, but I am willing to learn basic stuff. I don't see how else I'm supposed to learn without asking questions. I did figure out the compiling and that went smoothly, now I'm having problems either with the source of offsets, I updated both and still no change.
If you don't want to help thats fine, but im still going to ask, or take it to the help forum.

I am now having the exact same problems with compiling eqlib, I guess Iwasnt before so that was probably part of the whole not working problem.

I believe your problem is step 19, "additional libriary path" is located under the "link" tab, category "input".

You'll probably find the version of dinput.h is being pulled direct from the VC++ includes folder, rather than the one you want them to use.

Mine's working fine, except for one detail, that I can't be arsed fixing... everything in game is working splendidly.. Kudos dev team.

In the resource files area (left window) put all the files with a .rc extension. Well, the files from the appropriate directory (rc files from eqlib under eqlib, etc.)

Thanks ap50!

Replaced the dinput.h in my compiler with the one from DXSDK/include

worked like a charm.

can anyone send me the files that are needed? I am looking at that 224 meg sdk package with my 56k connection and am crying inside.

Valerian · Post by **Valerian** » Mon Mar 10, 2003 9:23 pm

sure, all that's needed from the SDK to compile this is the dinput.h file. send me a private msg with your email address, I'll send it to you.

Nope.

18. Switch to the C/C++ tab, Preprocessor Category and enter the path to your DX8.1 SDK directory in the "Additional Include Directories" field (IE C:\Program Files\DXSDK\)
19. Not needed.

Is that one step what is causing all thos problems?

Yes. Once the directx include file is missed, every reference to a directx structure is an error.
