I seem to be having some problems... MS Visual C++ 2010

Post by jibblesmgee »

ok, I have included the include library and the library library in the projects I'm trying to build, but I keep getting a big fat fail:

1>------ Build started: Project: 12.TerrainRendering_vc9, Configuration: Debug Win32 ------
1>C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft.Cpp\v4.0\Microsoft.Cpp.InvalidPlatform.Targets(22,7): error MSB8006: The Platform for project 'Irrlicht9.0.vcxproj' is invalid. Platform='MCD'. This error may also appear if some other project is trying to follow a project-to-project reference to this project, this project has been unloaded or is not included in the solution, and the referencing project does not build using the same or an equivalent Platform.
========== Build: 0 succeeded, 1 failed, 0 up-to-date, 0 skipped ==========

I've just started trying to use irrlicht, and I'm not much of a coder, but I'm just trying to build one of the examples packaged with irrlicht so I can then tweak it and try to make a hieghtmap. Any help would make my massive headache subside.

The official release has no VS2010 support yet. It's already in svn trunk and will be in Irrlicht 1.8.

Or, you can try irrBuild @ https://sourceforge.net/projects/irrbuild/ .

I tested it against irrlicht 1.7.2 and the latest svn trunk. Seems no problems for visual studio 2010 (express).

If you use Direct3d, check your SDK's location and change the default location in build_irrlicht.lua, please.

If you have any problem, post it here and I will see what can I do for you.

Regards,

Jiang

Am using MSVC2010 and Irrlicht 1.7.2.

Have no probs here, well I just copied the source into a new project (leaving the original to the original) and compiles just fine.
No :shock: I am no noob, just checking if your not one too :roll:

Thanks to Niko and all others that made Irrlicht possible.

I'm just using the 2008 binaries with 2010 and I'm having no issues.
