Welcome i have installed Visual Studio 2010 and while building EDuke3D shows errors.

I am a beginner developer but have never been to VS. I wanted to build 2 versions of eduke32_src_20070905 and eduke32_20091001-1517

Errors in eduke32_src_20070905 - I downloaded from this source http://dukeworld.duk...ns/source_code/



Errors in eduke32_20091001-1517 - I downloaded from this source http://dukeworld.duk.../20091001-1517/



And errors also eduke32_20091001-1517 after move this folder to C:\



Please help me!

I suspect Visual Studio will not work for those awfully old versions. http://wiki.eduke32....ke32_on_Windows

@Hendricks266 A listen whether AnkhSVN plugin is required to compile EDuke32? i try compile witout AnkhSVN.

Welcome Adrian Glowacki.
As a new developer, make google or your preferred search tool your best friend.

1. The code you are trying to compile is from 2007. The IDE used was Visual Studio Express 2005
2. Error message in your first image reads : error MSB3073 blah, blah exited with code 2
partial answer here, with reason given in item one.

If you want to actually compile this, you need to rebuild the source, one step at a time. If this is your thing, have fun. If not, just crap the latest Visual Studio Community, download the latest source from EDuke32 and get into it.

No, it is optional as the wiki states.

For the 2009 build both old builds I got both the eduke32.exe and mapster32.exe to compile in MinGW, using dx80_mgw for DXROOT.

You may need to use an older version of Hendricks266's setup .bat to get the proper environment.

Check here for old pages.

This is a 2012 version that looks close to what I used if I remember correct.

Edit: The sdk links are dead...
 dx70_mgw.zip (242.42K)
Number of downloads: 81
 dx80_mgw.zip (441.04K)
Number of downloads: 77

@Hank Thanks But in your 1 point for sure? The 2007 code I tried to compile in VS Express 2005 but after opening eduke32.sln (because eduke32.vcxproj does not read) gets the message "The file was selected is a solution file, but was created by a newer version of this application and can not be opened." and open eduke32.sln in WordPad and show:
___________________________________________________
Microsoft Visual Studio Solution File, Format Version 11.00
# Visual Studio 2010


What is LabVIEW?

Nothing is for sure. I simply opened the accompanied .sln file, in another IDE and it reads:

Spoiler

Microsoft Visual Studio Solution File, Format Version 9.00
# Visual C++ Express 2005
Project("{8BC9CEB8-8B4A-11D0-8D11-00A0C91BC942}") = "eduke32", "eduke32.vcproj", "{8E7A6179-0B72-4073-8A4C-E8682D481DAE}"
EndProject

The catch with Visual Studio's error messages is that the actual culprit may be something completely different.
To get help, someone also needs to use Visual Studio 2010 with those old versions of EDuke32.

Also keep Google or another search tools handy. It will give you hints on what to look for, besides the IDE version mismatch.
To re-build an old source is not the simplest task in the world, but as I wrote before, if this is your thing, all the best.

[Striker]

Why are you trying to compile these old versions? The latest source on the EDuke32 SVN can be compiled with VS2015 without need of anything else.

[Adrian Głowacki]

@Striker But the latest version of EDuke32 has difficulty with gamma , contrast and brightness in display seings. A whether olders source on the EDuke32 SVN also can be compiled with VS2015 without need of anything else.
