I tried to put this in the area editor code but my version of visual c++ didn't like it, however if I can't change the editor I'd like to change the smaug server itself or the area file itself, and I want to know where(I should put code), plus how(I should adapt the code).
This was my code for the area editor:
case ITEM_RING:
{
CString strResult;

if (m_pDoc->skill_name (value[1], true) != "NONE")
strResult += "'" + m_pDoc->skill_name (value[1]) + "' ";
if (m_pDoc->skill_name (value[2], true) != "NONE")
strResult += "'" + m_pDoc->skill_name (value[2]) + "' ";
if (m_pDoc->skill_name (value[3], true) != "NONE")
strResult += "'" + m_pDoc->skill_name (value[3]) + "' ";

if (strResult.IsEmpty ())
strResult = "'NONE'";

return CFormat ("Level %i, max charges: %i, charges: %i, spell(s): %s",
value[0],
value[1],
value[2],
(LPCTSTR) strResult);
}
(Thanks in advance...)

Are you compiling SMAUG, or Nick's Area Editor? If the former, what is this 'area editor' you are referring to? If the latter, this should be in the area editor section. :-)

Anyhow, you will need to be more specific than simply saying that VC++ "didn't like it". What was the error message?

Yes, I am using the area editor that Nick created,
I believe that I am using too recent of a version.
It gives no errors but gives a couple of warnings,
and I've already gotten rid of the VC++.
I would like to know where to get the right version of VC++
in a trial version...

Trial version? As in you don't pay for it?

Don't know if there is such a beast. The Area Editor uses MFC libraries so you probably (almost certainly) can't compile it with g++ or the Borland or other compilers.

The modern versions of the Microsoft compilers will probably compile it, possibly after doing some work to bring it up to date.

If you go to the Microsoft Development Network (msdn.microsoft.com), they have an "Express" VC++ version that is in fact free and comes with the bells and whistles you need. (The catch is that you're not supposed to use it for commercial software.) Is that the trial version you are referring to?

If you got warnings but no errors, that's probably quite ok. What were the warnings you got? You need to tell us so we can figure out how to help. :-)

When you create a new thread in this forum (in this section) it says this:


If there is an error, an exact copy of the error message(s) ...


Saying "it didn't work" is not an exact copy of the error message. It is impossible to help you if you don't tell us the message(s).

Sorry guys but I had uninstalled vc++ when I made this thread and I just got it back...
Thus I did NOT have the errors.
But now I do and I have them posted in the post above.
Thank you for putting up with me.

I'm a little confused; are those warnings before or after uninstalling or reinstalling VC++? The more precise you are the more we can help you.

Also I don't see any errors, just several warning messages; are there more messages?

OK. Could you explain in as much detail as possible what you have done to install VC++, what version, etc.?

You might need to install the Platform SDK if you don't have it already. It should be available on the MSDN site.

When you say that it updated your area editor files, do you mean that it updated the project files? (Please try to be very specific in these matters.)

Did you install the Platform SDK? You might need that for some of the MFC stuff.

I only saw vc++ do it once so my memory isn't great, but it said something about project files...
Which files should I download from the site ?
