Compiling error for Srb2

[The Yellow Blue Dude]

I was trying to compile Srb2 the other day when I got and error message. (Below) It didn't work and I haven't changed anything, also I have installed the DevPaks. Can anyone help me.

 C:\Users\Jon\Documents\Vaio\Srb2 Game\src\win32\Makefile.win [Build Error]  [../../objs/Mingw/Win32/dx_error.o] Error 1

If this is a vista problem, I am going to destroy microsoft!

MinGW doesn't work in Vista, because of something it relies on. Partition your hard drive in two, install XP on the new partition and switch between XP and Vista when you need to, or get a spare PC to do your dev work on. I have one running Windows Server 2003 for mine, I just use Remote Desktop Connection to it.

I recommend you go for the second one, since creating second partitions can be tricky unless you know what you're doing, you could end up formatting your Vista partition and lose everything.

Or, you know, you could just install Visual C++ 2005 and compile it with that.

Carp, huge bump, I, you know, didn't actually notice I was looking through my un-answered posts, so I had posts dating back an age right at the top O.o
