opengl2d3d.exp : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _glGetLightiv@12 Error executing link.exe. betatest.exe - 379 error(s), 3 warning(s)
I recently tried out XPLite and after a reboot, my project came to look like this. I won't tell you how much I dislike XPLite, as it does not really matter - but what can I do to correct this?
I have tried reinstalling VC6, VC6SP 5.
Someone said something about preprocessors, but I tried that and it wouldn't install.

sounds like you need to execute the *.reg file found in the project directory.

I would imagine this is followed by more than just this error output?sounds like you need to execute the *.reg file found in the project directory.

Is opengl2d3d the only thing that borks ? If it is, just forget about it : you won't be able to use Direct3D as your video driver, but since it's only a stop gap measure in TGE, you really don't need it...

Could be that, I'll try it, thanks mate!
Nicolas: It gives errors, you can't just skip errors and make a binary out of it, well - not without modifying it to ignore errors, and that's never recommended as far as I know.
The strange thing about this is that when I press "Rebuild All" no object data seems to be written onto the disc, and it all builds in maybe 30 seconds.. and I'm used to wait around 5 minutes for a complete rebuild.
I'll try Badguys suggestion though and get back here.

At least that's better. Anyone have a clue?

Thanks for the help with the .reg file though.
