Installing...

Post by Ioanius » Sat Dec 25, 2004 7:35 pm

Yeah so I went to set up MQ and started with the guide http://www.macroquest2.com/includes/wassup/manual.php... and I dl'ed Visual Studio 8.0 Beta and it just dosn't seem to be working or follow the steps listed. Anyone know where I go to compile using 8.0, or a place I can get 6.0. Also following that guide will eventually lead to a working program correct? Thanks.

Mmm, I wasn't aware you could compile using VB.

Yah I did, but how do you use it to compile.
Step 7 says Select Build -> Set Active Config and select MQ2main. Click OK.. but it dosn't show an option for it.

Uh, isn't that for VC 6++?

Try using the VC.net instructions.
