Talk:MacroQuest2:Compiling

From MacroQuest Wiki

Just noticed while compiling this using Compiling for Free with VS2005 Express

Can someone confirm this? I did it 3 times to be sure. With VS2005 and all Windows Updates if I follow step 9 it will error/fail the compile. If I skip step 9 and go straight to 10 it works perfect.

1. Download the MacroQuest2 source zip and unzip it 2. Right click the newly created folder, select Properties, and remove the Read only flag 3. Run MQ2Auth.exe. 4. Double-click the Macroquest2.sln file. VC.net will open the MacroQuest project 5. If asked to update the code for the current version of .net, click yes 6. Go to the Build menu and select Configuration Manager 7. Select Release, and place a check in each dll you want compiled 8. In the Solution Explorer, right-click on MQ2Main and choose "Set as Startup Project" 9. With MQ2Main selected in the Solution Explorer, go to Build - Build MQ2Main 10. Go to Build - Batch Build, click "Select All" and then "Build" 11. The dll files will compile and be placed in the Release folder
