Compiling for PC with the original VS 2002 Solution

Requirements

• Windows XP 32bit. Must be 32bit due to VS 2002 having a 64bit check which causes installation failure.
• Visual Studio .NET 2002 (https://archive.org/details/en_vs.net_2002_pro)

Steps

1. Copy all the files from game/build/win32/Backup into game/build/win32 as the non-backup files were messed with and broken.
2. Open SRR2.sln in Visual Studio .NET 2002 and build the solution.
3. Go to game/cd/PC and the newly built game distribution should be there.

Notes/WIP

Updating to VS 2019

The following changes fixes the respective library or project to compile in VS 2019:

radmovie
    Properties
        C/C++
            Code Generation
                Smaller Type Check: Change from /RTCc to No

radsound
    system.cpp
        IID_IDirectSound8 to IID_IDirectSound
    Properties
        C/C++
            General
                Additional Include Directories: Add "..\..\src\pch"
            Code Generation
                Smaller Type Check: Change from /RTCc to No

Pure3D
    platform.cpp
        #include <fstream.h>  -> #include <fstream>
        #include <strstrea.h> -> #include <strstream>

Currently problematic libraries or projects:

• pddidx8 won't build because VS is reading the .vsh files (shader files) and throwing a syntax error
• SRR2 won't build due to the above failing, but also has it's own errors

Any solution to solve the .vsh files issue?

still not, i also get the same error
