I'm getting the following when trying to compile.

I am very new to compiling stuff and have probably just missed a step

I have added the mode7.cc to the project (maybe not correctly).

How I added it.
Project
add existing item
mode7.cc

full rebuild
error still exists

===================================================
Additional info in the hope of getting a response:

I am using visual studio 2005 pro

The issue is as follows

Some changes were required to be made to some of the engines .h and .cc files

Some of these changes refer to functions in another .cc file (no header)

I used "add existing item" to add the extra .cc file to my project
but the other changes don't seem to find the required funtions

Hmmmm.... did you do a full clean before the rebuild? The issue is that your linker wants to find where those three functions are defined. It might be that you placed those declarations inside the classes instead of outside?

Also, did you add the mode7 file to both TGBGame and TorqueGameBuilder? You have to add to both.

Hey guys. The TGB Kart Kit has its own private forums now: TGB Kart Kit.

Licensed owners should discuss there from now on.

Guess that would be a good idea ;)

It's been taken care of.

woohoo -- it compiles now.

I still don't get mode7 -- I probably screwed up some of the code changes.

I'm going to start over and see how it goes.

That sounds good, Tony. Post any Q's in the new forum. You definitely have to be sure to put the modifications in the right places. Even a couple lines in the wrong spot, for certain things, and the mode7 effect won't be enabled. :)
