I'm using Mircosoft Visual and I forgot how to make an .EXE, I modded a new weapon in and I can't get it into playable form.

Get Visual C++ 2008 or 2010 (either works, and Express Edition will do in a pinch). if you have Visual C++ 2005 Express, it's completely useless, and if you have any other edition of Visual C++ 2005, it's only good after building (with debug symbols) using 2008 or 2010.

That said, open up the workspace in 2008 and hit F7 (if some bullshit error about output filename not matching expected filename, fix the project properties). move/copy the newly-built executable to your standard LCS directory and enjoy.

I have 2008 express and when I hit F7 it gives me this:

It then gives me a bunch of strange looking files, none of which are exes .

[The13thRonin]

I think it was a corrupted download, re-trying now with new files.

[Zeta]

No, it looks (to me) that you forgot to balance your parentheses in pool.cpp (check line 13) and also attempted to have two different "case 1s" within the same switch (in recruit.cpp).

I didn't touch the pool file, it was a corrupt download.

[Innominate]

I don't know whether it was a corrupted download, but pool.cpp revision 417 appears to be totally wrong. Lines 9 to 13:

Code: [Select]

void dispersal_ok(Creature* cr)
{
    for(int i=0; i<
    cr.subordinates
}
In fact, I can't make heads or tails of the code. It appears to declare pool as a class and then use it as a vector (as it is defined in externs.h). I'm thinking that it is indeed corrupted, but that it is the svn itself that is corrupted. The entire pool class seems like it shouldn't be there.

[Jonathan S. Fox]

pool.cpp is an incomplete file. It is not part of the game, and should not be compiling. Remove it from the project and try again.
