Compile issue

by Michael Taylor · in Torque 3D Professional · 01/28/2010 (1:27 pm) · 5 replies

Greetings everyone,
I'm trying to learn Torque 3D. I've looked thru the docs and this forum but came up dry. I'm trying to compile a level in Release but I'm getting 2 errors:

no game\MyProject.lib
and buildRenderedPolylist is not a member of 'Container'.

I've run generateProjects.bat and MyProject.sln with same results.
The compiles are initiated from the Toolbox of T3D 1.1, and I'm using VC2008 Express.
And just tried compile.bat with same results.



Here's the last log:

1>------ Build started: Project: Test Project 5 DLL, Configuration: Release Win32 ------

And I'm running XP.
Any help would be great.

Great engine btw! Just need to get the FPS up.

Just incase you are not aware, VS Express can't compile the IE plugin and you need to unload it from your solution (some missing file that is only available in VS Pro).

I didn't know that. Thanks.

Steve, that was one of the first things I found in the forum and one of the first things I tried. Then I read a post stating that it had been taken care of, so I stopped unloading it and the log looked the same.
Unless I see different I'll assume that the IE plugin problem has been fixed in 1.1.
But thanks anyway.

Problem solved. I downloaded and re-installed PhysX and Torque and got a good compile except for the plugin errors mentioned. Unloaded those plugins and got a perfect compile.
Thanks again for your input Steve.

Glad you got a result.
