OK - got it to work. For the benefit of anyone else trying to use VC++6.0:
- Installed SP5 (http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/downloads/updates/sp/vs6/sp5/default.aspx ) - Tried to install processor pack but if failed because it won't install on standard edition. If you don't have the standard edition, install this: http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/downloads/tools/ppack/download.aspx. If you do have standard edition, click this link and unzip in the Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio folder: http://yolg.homestead.com/files/procpackhack.zip - Use this to convert the project files from v7 to v6: http://www.codeproject.com/tools/prjconverter.asp - Manually add the following files to the project: src\game_shared\death_pose.cpp src\game_shared\env_detail_controller.cpp Whew! -Gregg -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Yahn Bernier Sent: Wednesday, January 05, 2005 5:56 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [hlcoders] Problems building with Visual Studio 6 SP6 Right, you'll have to revert to sp5. (Not sure what they "fixed" between 5 and 6 anyway, but I know we do some alignment stuff in core headers (Vector class I think in particular) which requires the VC Processor pack).
