Here is the link:

There are only VC6 project files, so you will have to convert it to newer compilers, and if you do... please post download link to those sln and project files stating what compiler version you used. Thanks

And here are the blank libraries you need to compile the code:

http://kermi.pp.fi/JA_2/Mods_Vanilla/Source/Gold/ja2source_missing_libs_3rdparty.zip

The instructions for getting the vanilla code to compile are likely long gone, and I'm not sure if anyone remembers all of the steps, so take some aspirin before attempting this, as it might be painfull.

Thanks Kaiden really appreciate you say use VC 6 as that will save me at least some hassle. I am expecting this not to work owing to me not knowing enough , thats cool though plan is to hang onto it until I do .

Thanks a bunch! I dunno just kinda developing an obssesive interest in this now lol

Cheers folks there was a readme which told me where stuff went, Im using the windows 2008 sdk but it cant find sal.h , I think its because VC needs an older sdk , what was it the 2003 r2 plaform sdk that got used with that old code? Im about to try that

BTW its visual studio 6 Im using

copied the sal.h header across from VC 9 and am getting the following error which iM GOING TO TRY AND FIX tommorow (Excuse caps)

C:\PROGRAM FILES\MICROSOFT SDKS\WINDOWS\V6.1\INCLUDE\bcrypt.h(112) : error C2485: 'align' : unrecognized extended attribute

That looks like the main error that left

(Think I am nearly good to go but some forum post says that can be caused with linendings and to use VS 2003? that means I would need to convert from VS 6 , is there a way to workaround the above error on VS 6? )

edit:

This is for the benefit of Kaiden if he comes onto this thread its just I PMed but I have cut down majorly on the warnings now, I needed to right click all project files and put the deprecate preprocessor flags in each project, Im getting there heres all my errors now

Yes, I will upload everything at JAG too, but it was soooo easy to work with esnips )) Wish I had that kind of tool at JAG.

Report message to a moderator

Hiya thanks again BTW I went onto an xp machine , put on and old old disk I have with MS VS 6 and I am dam near to getting a build . I actually think this is a code bug at fault , well maybe lol

In screens.cpp

I get MLG_COlLAGE undeclared identifier (means that no variable declared or perhaps I need another dependancy)

MLG_AVAILABLE undeclared identifier error (am on my vista computer now and working up stairs in my house so those errors arent exact but I think the variables at fault are spelled correctly


Once I get to grips with all this and get if I manage to get it fixed up sure I will try and come up with something to help people . Will be happy to do that but just want to be sure I am getting all the steps right myself

non standard extension used , nameless struct union , lots of warnings related to types.h Im hoping if I get the variable errors above fixed I should be gtg

edit : nvm got alot further this time, I basically changed from demo version to release version, cut down on warnings and this time it compiled but when It went to link it error regarding smack32.lib it couldnt link it so gonna check that out


edit: Woohoo have an exe 0 errors and a few warnings + a release version!!!! When I run the exe I get cant find smackw32.dll but Im going to try putting the exe in a 1.10 gold version and see if it works. Hopefully I dont need any more compile linkage things just need to know if its just a matter of putting the exe in my current game dir which I installed already? BTW where I went wrong basically as per readme I set up the MS VS 6 includes to have all the folders and sub folders in SGP and JA 2 folders but what I forgot to do was add the SGP folder to the MS VS libs as well as includes (Not explaining this well I know , if I write anything out I will make sure its better explained )

edit: Hiya really pleased the exe works with non 1.13 version!! Superb Ended up just using VC 6 though, please keep that iostream.h tip up though as I think I was close to getting it to work on 2005 and I ended up trying to comment out certain lines in library files on my vista comp as a cheap hack lol (Ended up doing more dmg though hehe) . Think I am going to just play the game on my compiled exes tonight now , I was even surprised as the cutscenes kicked in! , Im not sure but I think there should be one where you see the guy walking up the street and into some cafe of something to speak to a guy, never seen that but if that happens right after the tank cutscene well I pressed escape so maybe missed it, either way I started the first level just to be sure, heck I was kinda in dis-belief it all worked so twice I recompiled, removing previous exes from the build directory just to be sure that I was indeed using my built exe

In VC 6 when you goto tools---->options then you alter the include directorys well something I noticed is when you restart MS VS sometimes it loses all the includes etc that you specify, It actually in MS VS gave an error similiar to one that I had when I compiled in 2005 so Im thinking on my attempt at converting to MS VS 2005 maybe some of my include and lib directorys were forgotten by the IDE? (Would mind knowing if theres perhaps a global file somewhere I can edit to get includes appied to all my projects always)

I can see why you like MS VS 6 though, I still like that version even though its dated. (Thanks once again all, tonight Im just gonna chill playing the game but tommrow I will try and start putting something more coherant together, I am no guru but I figure the least I could do for all the help is to just list the steps I took to get the vanilla sources to compile.

Heres the link that clearly shows whats wrong if you get the MG_COLLAGE ERROR I fixed all this now just figured I would include it since googling it only yielded 1 result! which is an older thread on this site

http://www.ja-galaxy-forum.com/board/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=102106&page=2

edit : This post is getting huge again but I am using a trial of MS VS PRO on vista and have managed to get an exe and succesful compilation with vista+ most recent windows SDK!+ MS VS 2005. Got an error regarding the way C++ handles ints and just add the type int to the function return value and the error was away . That iostream link kindly provided nailed the other error on the head.

I just ran the exe on vista and compiled on vista with latest sdk and everything seem great , ALL starting cutscenes are working, map screen works, and the in game combat screen works . Im going to start with something simple like tracking down the merc names in the C++ files and changing one just to see what happens

It's not the upload part that sucks, it's the publishing one. We have higher standards at JAG than showing people naked FTP directories )

I was reffering to their upload tool that allows you to set "description" and "tags" on the fly.

I wasnt sure what you were meaning by JAG and wasnt wanting to ask yet more questions before googling but I think I found the site , actually lol its this site haha(That compiling is going to the brain!) , just noticed its the same domain only I have only ever been on these forums Heres the link to that STI Editor and other utils

//Utils Link for AFTER everything is compiled and verified working.......Optional
http://www.jagalaxy.com/filedb/index.php?act=category&id=7

Which I think will be the link you folks were advising me to download the editor from. Im pretty much set now [for anyone in future like myself dont worry about the UTILS until you have verified the source is compiled and working]

Report message to a moderator

oh man, after I found out that there's source code available, I've wasted hours trying to compile it with VC++ 2008 with no success so far, just out of curiosity. Never done that much C stuff but I've always enjoyed hacking others code.

Now it goes great until linking them objects, which gives me about 3000 errors with unresolved external symbols. I guess I broke it.

Anyways, I dusted off my laptop with VC++ 6.0 and boy was it easy to compile with that (following the good readme in that 3rd party file that is). Too bad that my Vista PC can't run it, it's major pain to do anything with the laptop.

Soo I guess my question is that is there any vanilla sources converted to later VC++ versions flying around here, I saw some references to those at the forums but couldn't find any dl links?

Hiya its really late here but what errors are you getting and whats the exact link or svn linkk that will show me what source you are using, just submit the earliest error + 1 or 2 differant listings of the most prominant warnings, I am using vista btw , I had a bit of hassle but got there in the end just stick with it

It was ms vs 2005 & 2005 Express I got the code compiled on , I have been faffing around with the PE executable format and C so my paths are changed again but I can have a bash at compilation again tommorow just to see if I can help you out, Im very new at it myself, the whole compiling JA 2 source but got there in the end, however I was banging my head of a wall a bit Everyone was pretty patiant as well and was lucky some that helped me had been through the same thing hehe

Anyway will check back tommorow , I will try my best to help if its possible for me to do so.

I dont think I did it on 2008? but I was messing with alot of differant MS VS versions in the end and I ended up getting it to compile on the ones I used .
