Got my World.exe to build on Visual C++ 6.0, now when i tried to do zone.exe i got a bunch of crazy errors, i slowly cleared up the linking problems and was left with this:

Error executing cl.exe.

ZonePerl.exe - 102 error(s), 4 warning(s)

Any ideas on what may be causing this? any help would be much appreciated :)

I'm getting the same thing. I got Zone.exe to compile fine but ZonePerl.exe makes the same errors in eqtime.cpp.

[cofruben]

try including fstream.h instead of fstream, if not, use vs.net 200x, i am using 2002 atm and it is working good.

[burgos123]

I tried fstream.h and it still got errors.
And I dun wanna leave VC++6 /cry

With CVS, I can only seem to get emusharemem.dll to compile properly. Actually, this last time around, I even got World.exe to compile with only one warning. However, Zone gives me a ton of errors and they're almost all related to winsock2.h and only when I add in the files need for the Perl compile.

And only the release versions would compile right--- the debugs gave me a ton of errors, so you might try switching the compile to release.

Kind of wish there were an easy way to fix the Perl compiles, but I'm lazy, so I'll let other people compile it since my last successful compile of the Emulator wouldn't even work on my own machine. =/
