MacroQuest64

greetings all,
I suspect I've commited some sort of newbie blunder in recompiling tonight. My working copy of MQ2 stopped working with the recent EQ patch ("incorrect client version"). In a stroke of newbie "genius" , I figured I'd download the latest version and recompile. After the download, I decided the thing to do would be to start "fresh" and I went to the trouble of totally nuking my existing MQ2 directory. After unzipping into a new MQ directory, I reran MQ2Auth. At this point, I started the recompile and the errors below occurred:

I also tried copying MQ2Auth0.h into the MQMain2 subdirectory without success. I'm running Windows XP Pro (SP2). I'm using Visual C++.NET (2003) to compile. I would appreciate any ideas on how to fix this, especially if its something obvious. Thanks in advance.

Try this then:

1) Click Start, then Run, in the Open box, type: cmd <press enter>
2) type: D: <press enter>
3) type: CD \MQ2 <press enter>
4) type: MQ2AUTH <press enter>
5) type: exit <press enter>
6) Open up VS.NET, select the Macroquest project from the MQ2 directory, and clean/build solution.

Thanks for responding. The "clean" ran fine. Unfortunately, "build solution" (after re-running MQ2AUTH) gave me the same errors as before.

Hmm. If you look in D:\MQ2\MQ2Main directory, do you see the MQ2Auth0.h file?

How did you initially open the solution with VS.NET, and did it request to convert the projects, and did you tell it to do so?

Question 1: No, its in D:\MQ2. Should I manually move?
Question 2: Initially, I clicked on the workspace link in the MQ2 folder. It did request to convert the projects and I allowed it to do so.

Thanks again.
nemesis855

when you unzipped , did you preserve directory structure, or did it drag and drop all into one directory?

Make sure you are building the Release version and not the Debug version also. (Haven't tried it in a while but I remember Debug always throwing a ton of errors)

Question 1: No, its in D:\MQ2. Should I manually move?

Yes.

I think it would be really cool if you noobs would keep posts asking for help in the ...er.... HELP forum.

In a stroke of newbie "genius"

This is totally funny. :) Sorry to take up another 10 seconds of your life.

Well this made me laugh so, try this if you still getting errors, on the compiler right click on the mq2main fodler and click on add existing item, when the window opens select the mq2auth0.h. The other errors looked like if you had mq running at the same time you tried to compile.

Hope that helps~

Well, I'm sure you will all be "thrilled" to learn I solved my problem. Thank you all for your suggestions (and yes, I should have posted this originally to the 'help' forum ... wasn't paying attention).

Anyway, I'm not sure which (if any) of the steps below did the trick, but this is what I did:

1) deleted all the MQ2 projects from the Solution Explorer
2) deleted the existing MQ2Auth0.h from D:\MQ2
3) re-ran MQ2Auth
4) re-compiled

Everything is now working as before.
