Well, I have a slight problem, well, ok, it's A HUGE PROBLEM!!! :aghast:

My MSVC++ was working fine until I tried compiling some code in which I tried to import ingame videos.. after I got an error, I could'nt fix.. not only could'nt fix but it wont compile anything else. Even when I load the backup. I searched for help and I was told to reinstall, however, that doesn't even work because I had previously installed the software.

So, Does anyone have MSVC++ 6.0 they could send me, I know ZombieLoffe host all his programs, but not sure where, or even if he has it...

Please guys.. My mod still needs so much more code added, including models.

Or you could always use Dev-C++.

I remember that Bloodshed Dev as being a bad program, but I checked it again now and it looks like a nice light-weight IDE. Just installed it to my usb-stick. Handy when there's no bigger 'n better IDE around.

Well, Daubster, after installing your setup.. I still get the error.

I've googled this error, and others have had it too.

Does anyone have a non-corrupt 'winnt.h' file they could send me.. I'll try replacing it.

Is Dev-C++ useable for HL mods?

I was gonna try 'n track down a copy of Visual C++ 6.0, but if another compiler will do the job just as well, I'll go with that instead...

Actually, no. According to the Valve Development Community, Dev-C++ is an IDE, not a compiler. The real workings of Dev-C++ involve the MinGW compiler, which has not successfully compiled the SDK. However, there IS a free version of VC++, called VC++ Express 2005

Link: http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/visualc/

Haven't tried it out yet, though. Takes a while to set up.

Okay, thanks for that.

I've actually already downloaded the Visual Studio Express files (last year sometime) but never went so far as to install them or anything. I was mostly unsure whether other versions of MS Visual C++ would work, since everything I've seen specifically mentions 6.0...

Oh well, I guess I'll give it a try sometime. :-)

Unbreakable...
Why are you compiling the winnt.h???

I've never need to... :
Posted 18 years ago2006-03-21 10:45:38 UTC Post #170041
Yeah, is that an HL sdk related source file?

I'm not compiling the winnt.h file, thats why this problem is so messed up. The file is'nt included in the workspace or anything.
All I did was try to import Movies into the game, from "AVIKit". When I tried compiling it, I soon got that error. Theres no way I'm going to use Dev. I'll try the VC++ '05

Delete winnt.h, should work.

No... The VC++5 will not solve the problem...
And deleting the winnt.h is not the right fix to this...
The project don't need to compile this .h file...
Try to recreate your workspace and recompile...
If it don't work, try to use your player.cpp backup, and recreate your code from the start...

But, it's really odd... :

No it's not. VC includes everything in the include folder, so if he deletes it, it won't be included.
