Topic: [HELP] visual studio c++ project

Hi,
it's my first post, but not my first time in the forum.
Maybe you have seen me playing tongue

My question is
how can i add the teeworlds src to my project in visual studio 2008

i created a new c++ Make project, and put "bam", and "bam -c" in generate field, well you know..

but i don't know how to add the teeworlds source code so i can start compiling

hope you help me


P.D.
i can compile using bam and all that, but i think its easier to compile it in visual studio

can you help me?

thanks

Re: [HELP] visual studio c++ project

AFAIK it's not possible to "build" with MSVC without modifying the sources. bam makes just use of your VC++ compiler. The build process itself is handled by bam (dependencies, data/resource-compiler, ...)

I suggest using a good text editor for your tw development and trigger the build on command line.

Re: [HELP] visual studio c++ project

oh, that's bad
it will be useful to use breakpoints and all those things =P

anyway
i see that you are a developer
well, i'm a c# programmer, i understand c++ a bit, but i can't understand the logic of teeworlds code

is there a place where i can find documentation about the functions, classes, etc of teeworlds?

unlikely, but maybe there's a introduction to tw's code


currently i'm making a mod, but only for LAN so i can have fun with my friends

can you help me a little with it or answer some questions about the code?


thanks


btw, nyuu clan looking for spanish members xD

Re: [HELP] visual studio c++ project

It should be easy to build and run from VS. Create a makefile project and add the corresponding bam commands to the bat files that are created.

Select the exe for debugging and run.
