Woa, I am a most definately a cheap ass. After mooching everything I could to try and Jerry rig this thing into Compiling heaven I'm about SOL. SO her eis my question:
What exactly do I need to get this thing to compile in CW6? I have hunted for the .mcp files but have none. I have searched for anything to try and use the make files, but no luck. What specifically can I do? I just want to compile the engine and get rocking. Any hints? Did I do soemthing wrong via WinCVS?

I checked the torque directory on my pc, and there is no cw directory. Any ideas? Where are the help files on getting this thing to run on CW?

I am unable to access this directory through wincvs. What am I doing wrong? I checked the torque directory on my pc, and there is no cw directory. Any ideas? Where are the help files on getting this thing to run on CW?

read up on cvs, for some reason you are not getting all the directories. There is a /cw directory when I checkout the module on windows.

What version of the code did you get? HEAD or 1.1.2 or ...? The "cw" directory was added in January, if your code is older than that, it won't be there.

Another item of note, I checked by date it seems as though everything is from 1998, which I assume is bad. The login I'm going to is as per the directions:
flapboy@cvs.garagegames.com:/cvs/torque
Let me know if everything is setup correctly. I have checked the documentation over and over, and it is working properly, just nothing from 2002.

I followed the instructions and grabbed the 1.1.1 version. Is head the latest?Another item of note, I checked by date it seems as though everything is from 1998, which I assume is bad. The login I'm going to is as per the directions:

The head is the very latest and may be unstable.

I think that "cw" was in 1.1.1, but the latest stable version is 1.1.2. You should be able to update to that using wincvs. Make sure you use wincvs's "get new directories" option.The head is the very latest and may be unstable.

One last question, where is the get new directories option?

Ok. Thanks a lot for your help. I did grab the Head version and it contained the directory. I'll go through and check that also. You guys rock :).One last question, where is the get new directories option?

Not sure, I don't use wincvs regularly. The command line flag is -d. Maybe it is in the preferences section.

Didn't see it, what is the exact command for the command line?

cvs -q update -dPA
-q tells cvs to be quieter than normal
-d says get new directories
-P says prune empty directories
-A unset sticky flags (i.e.: update to head revision)
