Ok I have gone through the forums and this is what I know my prob is... I get this when I try to compile:

Linking...
..\Detours\lib60\detours.lib : warning LNK4003: invalid library format; library ignored
Creating library Release/eqlib.lib and object Release/eqlib.exp
..\Detours\lib60\detours.lib : warning LNK4003: invalid library format; library ignored
EQLib_Hooks.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _DetourRemove@8
EQLib_MemChecks.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _DetourRemove@8
EQLib_Hooks.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _DetourFunction@8
EQLib_MemChecks.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _DetourFunction@8
EQLib_Hooks.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _DetourFunctionWithEmptyTrampoline@12
..\Release\eqlib.dll : fatal error LNK1120: 3 unresolved externals
Error executing link.exe.

eqlib.dll - 6 error(s), 2 warning(s)

Now from what I have read that is because cvs is trying to download a unix version of the cvs... I have ALL my options sec exactly like the step by step(checked em all at least 4 times) and I even tried using the dos cvs command alone without the wincvs program. I tried the link that was posted do download the latest source code but its not working for me... kinda confused here any help would be appreciated

You have to download from the CVS in Unix format, or you get a bunch of extra line feeds that mess up compiling.

Your problem currently is that it's not liking detours.lib for some reason. Best bet: delete your source files, rerun WinCVS, but make sure you go to the last tab on the checkout window and check the box for Unix style LF/CR. Then recompile.

But when I run cvs through the dos prompt shouldnt that download all the files i need? I tried wincvs tortoisecvs and just plain dos style cvs... I know my prob is with my download but I have that box checked and still nothin.

Id like to download a new version of wincvs 1.2 and re-run it but I cant seem to be able to download off their web site... I get an empty zip file for anything I try to download.

Actually I get the same errors. I think it's VC 6 thing.

Is anyone out there successfully compiling with VC 6?

Yes. Do a search for invalid library format.

Got it. Thanks. It was the line feed thing.

It usually is the linefeed thing. Why Microsoft has to use a different format for text files than the rest of the universe I'll never know.

ok got source code from the download section... didnt work first time... recompiled and worked fine. I like having the source code in the download section. I always end up having more probs with cvs then with compiling. I think thats the case in most people. And to the post above... you almost said the answer right there... you said microsoft. Micrsoft is like a woman... noone will EVER understand it fully.
