Compiling Source Code ( 2.0 ) With VS2015

[Snre3n 94]

Hello PKOdev, I created this thread in hope that we could get the source code working with VS2015.
I want to point out that this thread concerns this solution file "Client\Client\proj\kop.sln" from 'FILE.rar'.

 

The build are successful for both MindPower3D (dll) & Game.exe.

 

So what is the problem?
- Running game.bat does nothing
- Running MakeBin.bat does nothing
- Running Game.exe results with "Load Txt File[scripts/txt/CharacterAction.tx] Fail!"

Things I've done to make it compile: ( Something might be missing )

 

- Installed DirectX 8.1 SDK

 

- Set Zc:forScope to 'No' in C/C++ -> Language -> "Force Conformance in For Loop Scope" in MindPower3D.project
Why? To fix these kind of errors, without having to redefine a lot of variables.

 

- Most of libraries in Common folder has to be rebuilt to work with VS2015
Why? They were compiled with old VS version and gave unresolved external symbols.

 

- Ignored libc.lib (MindPower3D.project)
Why? I read somewhere that solved the issue. LOL!

 

- Added legacy_stdio_definitions.lib (MindPower3D)
Why? Fixed error codes, see https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb531344.aspx (Search 'legacy_stdio_definitions.lib')

 

Changes in source code:

 

MPParticleSys.cpp

At row: 4129~, 4179~, 4450~
fwrite(_vecPointRange._Myfirst,sizeof(D3DXVECTOR3),_wVecNum,t_pFile);
To this:
fwrite(_vecPointRange.front(),sizeof(D3DXVECTOR3),_wVecNum,t_pFile);

 

MPFont.cpp

At row: 957~, 962~, 977~, 983~
_pDev->GetDevice()->DrawPrimitiveUP(D3DPT_TRIANGLELIST, prc->iAshNum, prc->_vecHsl._Myfirst,sizeof(FONT_VER));    
To this:
_pDev->GetDevice()->DrawPrimitiveUP(D3DPT_TRIANGLELIST, prc->iAshNum, &prc->_vecAsh[0],sizeof(FONT_VER));

 

UIEditData.cpp

At row: 146~
_memorys.insert( &_memorys[_nCursor], pObj );
To this:
_memorys.insert( _memorys.begin() + _nCursor, pObj );    

At row: 163~
_memorys.erase( &_memorys[nIndex] );
To this:
_memorys.erase( _memorys.begin() + nIndex );

At row: 196~
_memorys.erase( &_memorys[start], &_memorys[end] );
To this:
_memorys.erase( _memorys.begin() + start, _memorys.begin() + end );

Which src code? 1.3x or 2.x? Did you try to create the simplest possible characteraction with 1 char and 1 pose to test? Which version of libraries did you get? latest or closest to the version already available? I would like to reproduce these steps tomorrow (my day off).

Any idea how do I get dx 8.1? I tried using game's but it gives me errors.

Use version of Visual Studio that matches project files, you can see that in .sln file.
