How to compile HPB_bot2.dll ?, How I can compile the source files with VC++ 6.0 ? Options

[Salvax]

I really need some tips.

which kind of project should i create ? Win32 Dynamic Link Lib or MFC App wizard(dll) ?

PS:I builded a DLL with MFC App wizard, but only 90kb, and can't work @ all .

i would try [Visual Studio .NET 2005] @ school today, but i don't have [HL2 SDK source code] there, so what should i do ? THX !

PS:I am downloading HL2 source SDK source from steam now, but how can i extract the [HL2 SDK source code] ? do i need GCF extractor ? BTW do u use VS2003 or VS2005 ? if i use VS 2005 will there be errors when i convert it into VS2005 SLN ?

PS2:do i just extract the /utils folder from SourceSDK.GCF to my harddisk like this ?

Or do i have to extract the whole /scr_mod folder to my harddisk and copy the bot source folder to (e.g.) X:\scr_mod\utils\ ?

PS3:
OK, I opened the SLN file with VS2005, but it says it is a lower version of VS, so i have to convert it to VS2005 SNL file, then i got 3 wannings in converted HPB_Bot2.vcproj, the converted SNL is fine.

then i try to re-build ,HPB_Bot2

i get all this kind of errors full of my screen:

warning C4819: The file contains a character that cannot be represented in the current code page (936). Save the file in Unicode format to prevent data loss

PS4:
i'm gonna try VS2003.NET anyway, i hope u use it too.

I use 2003 because thats what HL2 was compiled with, 2005 had some compatibility issues but has now been fixed http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/So...K_Release_Notes

For installing the source sdk check: http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/SDK_Docs



Steam -> tools -> source SDK -> Utilities (Create a mod) -> Source code only -> <enter folder> e.g. C:\hl2src\ -> Next

if you install to c:\hl2src then extract rcbot2 src into c:\hl2src\src\utils\

OMG! What a day...still havn't built a lovely dll yet...
ok, now i use VS2003 now, but when i start VS2003 --> File --> Open --> C:\hl2scr\utils\HPB_Bot2\HPB_Bot2.sln

then it shows an error about : Project HPB_bot2.vcproj is under Source Code management, but this computer has no source code management application installed (something like Microsoft Visual SourceSafe)
do i just ignore it or i have to install Microsoft Visual SourceSafe ?
