#64 Hey all. I'm trying to compile TGEA on VC2005, and I've gotten past the majority of the problems by following the posts in the above thread, but I've run accross one specific problem I cannot solve:

While linking I get:
10>Linking...
10>LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'ole32.lib'

I cannot find ole32.lib anywhere on my system. Any clues where this would have come from? Note I am on Vista Home Premium.

Thanks in advance!

#65 Travis,
ole32.lib is in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK\Lib folder. Which solution file are you using? I used the TGEA SDK.sln today using '2005 express edition' and it compiled for me with no problem.

#66 I strongly suggest following Brians instructions for compiling in VS2005, you can find it on TDN here:

tdn.garagegames.com/wiki/TGEA/InstallVS2005

Works for me on a clean XP install, and clean TGEA install :)
