building with msvc 2005 express and other question
« on: 25 November 2007, 17:51:24 »
Hello, I tried to build glest svn with msvc 2005 express earlier today,using a modfied project file downloaded from one of the sticky threads,tons of errors and missing files but I managed to fix all of them and hacked around the problems in gl headers.

Unfortunately the exe I built crashes with a camera related exception as soon as I try to start a game,and I notice some glitches like '???' characters in main menu.

I am using the ogg/gl sdk downloaded from the urls provided in 'compile with msvc 2003 .net' thread,though the xerces url is broken,so I am linking against the latest 2.8.0 vc8 one.

Please let me know if anyone knows what I did wrong,thanks.

The question I wanted to ask is why this game is so demanding on CPU than anything else,it seems there isn't many units per side or player and I didn't find anything special in game that can eat so much cpu time.

??? are because the different versions of the game, and the language files.

Thx extracting the 3.0.0 alpha patch data files to exe's folder fixed the problems.
