[Question]CodeDemon's D3D Menu Base Compile Complication!

[shugeevan]

Well, yes I am a noob at C++ but I still want to learn how all this works. Well I tried your base CodeDemon.

When I try to build it just to test it out, it gives me this error:

[PHP]1>------ Build started: Project: shugeevan CA NA v2.0, Configuration: Debug Win32 ------

Could you help me with that please?

Please and thank you!

Change your project from unibyte to multibyte

[CodeDemon]

Yep go into your project settings and change it from unicode to multibyte.

Edit: Also compile in release mode

[shugeevan]

Well the compile I have figured out..and I'm using Visual Studio 2008 (C++ Studio), where can I find the Project settings? [Told you I was noob :P]

Thanks btw. Both of you!

Edit* Figured it out (:

All I know is that it has to do with the Lib folder from DirectX

Build your project in release mode, also make sure you added the sdk manually. You can google this as I don't use VC++ 2008.

[UltimateX1]

put A after DrawText and after GetModuleHandle

[whatup777+]

put A after DrawText and after GetModuleHandle

Does nothing. There the exact same thing.

[UltimateX1]

gits rid of the error try it

[freedompeace]

Install the DirectX SDK. Reference the include and lib files into your Visual C++ Directories.

First sorry for my english, I'm Brazilian.
I had the same problem reinstall Microsoft SDK 2010 and look at the folder if it was not as "Microsoft SDK 2010 (June 2010)" Switch to "Microsoft SDK"
(must already exist on a computer) And Use VisualStudio2010 .Hope that helps. And Again sorry for the English used online translator

[RagedYet]

Download the Microsoft SDK Librarys and include them to your project this should do

[UltimateX1]
