Ok it was pointed out to me (VIA PM) that I didn't mention what file I was linking against in the VS2005 file.
winmm.lib was the file that I finally figured out I needed to link against to get the project to compile.
It needs to be included under the project properties -> Configuration Properties -> Linker -> Input -> Additional Dependencies.
I hope this clears up that question.
EDIT:
It's probably worth mentioning that there are several bugs due to VS2005 requiring variables to be defined before being passed to a function (and many aren't). I fixed the ones I saw just quickly playing through but if you find any more please report them
EDIT2:
*sigh* the overly confusing stuff do without realizing it . You need to install 7-Zip to extract the file.
After you install 7zip right click on the file -> choose the 7-Zip menu -> choose Extract files.
You should now see all the expected files. Sorry but I don't want to upload the extra 7mb for a zip file so I'm using 7-Zip to compress it.

Quote:-They're never going to compile under VS2005, which is a cast-iron shame. 800+ errors say "hello." Similarly, on gcc, I can only get it to compile by mickey-mousing the CFLAGS and ignoring things that should not be ignored.
VS2005 project fiile that compiles (for me anyway anyone want to confirm it works?).
As far as I can tell it is working properly. Built off Ormus's (sources) link.
Ok bracing for reports about what I messed up lolQuote:-These sources still don't work on Vista. Now, like any half-sane person, I don't use Vista (tested it in VMware), but that's still a sticking point. I'm of the opinion that a reimplementation may be necessary, especially to expand the system limitations sanely. (In my spare time I'm messing around with one.)Quote:I can not get custom scenarios working, I put them in the scenarios folder but it still says that there are none installed, I managed to get one working by renaming it to valleydy.exs but it wouldn't load it's custom graphics. any ideas?Quote:I really do advise avoiding SourceForge. It's slow, it's inferior, and their tech support is tremendously poor. If you need a ticket system, I'd be glad to set up Trac or something like it on my server. Just an offer.
It would be a shame if someone quit and people were getting old versions of the code to work on because that's what their sig pointed too. Or did I miss something that is already set up? Thanks for letting me knowQuote:I still miss the splash screen and intro music though, but I suppose I can live without it.

Hmm... this is a cool game, but I just realized something: the Win32 port isn't actually covered by the GPL!.
