Deprecated Darkstar fourms

hello there, guys, i've been having problems trying to rebuild my server, i was using em once and they, stoped working the next day... not sure why... when i tried to rebuild em i got to this issue... and dunno how to fix it... if some1 not that busy can help me, please. here's a lil description.

"during the DSGame-server build" (debug) got something like this...

1> ai_pet_dummy.cpp
1> ai_mob_dummy.cpp
1> ai_char_prisoner.cpp
1> Generating Code...
1> Skipping... (no relevant changes detected)
1> entity_update.cpp
1> mobutils.cpp
1> mobentity.cpp
1>LINK : warning LNK4098: defaultlib 'LIBCMT' conflicts with use of other libs; use /NODEFAULTLIB:library
1>LINK : fatal error LNK1123: failure during conversion to COFF: file invalid or corrupt
========== Build: 0 succeeded, 1 failed, 0 up-to-date, 0 skipped ==========



and during the "DSConnect-server" somethng like this...

1>------ Build started: Project: DSConnect-server, Configuration: Debug Win32 ------
1>LINK : fatal error LNK1123: failure during conversion to COFF: file invalid or corrupt
========== Build: 0 succeeded, 1 failed, 0 up-to-date, 0 skipped ==========


also before i start trying to debug, i got a window saying that the " DSConnect-server - Debug Win32" is out of date.
and after the compilation fails got another window saying that the "parameter "basePath" can't be a relative path.

i'd really appreciate your help, since i got some scripts to test... and got another that needs to be tested, then to upload em as a pack.

thanks in advance.

I'm just guessing but are you trying to use Visual Studio 2012? If so, use 2010

Install VS2010 SP1

roger that! i've been using VS C++ 2010... but i ll try to instal SP1, another thing seems like my pc has VS8,10,and 11 installed.. shall i uninstall em? or may that cause a failure?

Actually installing vs11 is likely what caused this issue. The fix is the same regardless. You don't need to remove any other versions.

i installed the sp1... and getting the same error... :S

Only other option is to disable incremental linking. If that doesn't work I dunno what to tell you. Expect your compile times to go up noticeably, though.

im getting the same problem when trying to rebuild too ill try what ya said and give feed back

VS2012 works fine with DSP.

Only think left that had error to it
