source changes

Post by dont_know_at_all » Wed Apr 30, 2003 11:54 pm

1. Added compiled versions of detours.lib for VC6.0 and VC7.0
2. Added dinput.h from the DXSDK8.1
3. Modified the makefile in eqlib choose the correct detours.lib version.
4. Put the source in a zip on the downloads page. CVS will always have the latest code.

There is no longer a need to download the detours package or the whole frigging DX SDK.

Hm, never had a problem, but with CVS compiled detours.lib it won't compile on my system (WinXP-SP1a, VC++7). had to use my old lib (means precompiled version from MS... silly
But Perhaps a config problem from my TortoiseCVS, perhaps it won't DL binaries right atm.

TortoiseCVS will mess up .lib files because it replaces all the newlines with newline carriage returns.

well i suck at compiling and mine works, VC6 and XP service pack one WITH a firewall.

my experence, macros running in turbo modes with /if statements that repeat a buch on #turbo mode, tend to bring my FPS to about 1

if thats not your problem though, i will shut up

Hmm... I haven't gotten that ping bug... and I never use #turbo in my macros (lol cause I never understood what it was for). I do remember removing it from some macros I copied from the Depot cause it caused me problems.

Maybe turbo is the error?

Well for me, it only really slows me down when i repeat a really short if statement waiting for a variable to regurn a certian value such as distance being less than 150 or something of that sort, the #turbo just makes it run the if statement WAY to fast.

add a /delay 1 in the /if statement should fix that i think...who knows...

I've never had that ping bug myself. I use visualCVS as a cvs client and do everything else with Visual C++ .net.

I run MQ on 4 machines--Win ME and Win XP.
