Linking problem on windows - nckomodo - 05-18-2010
Hello, first I must say it is very exciting that this game and its engine have gone open source.
I'm currently trying to compile penumbra: overture on windows 7 32bit with vs 2010 ultimate, however i've hit a bit of a wall.
you see, I just cant figure out what to do about the linker wanting and not being able to find HPL.lib, which I can confirm doesnt exist anywhere, is it a possibility that I need to redownload something?
RE: Linking problem on windows - Marduk - 05-18-2010
You have to build your HPL.lib from the engine sources otherwise you are not able to compile the overture.
Engine Source Code:
http://github.com/FrictionalGames/HPL1Engine
And you need OALWrapper.lib:
http://github.com/FrictionalGames/OALWrapper
1.Build OALWrapper.lib
2.Build HPL.lib
3.continue with overture
hope that will help

Oh? Is the a way to configure the overture project file to pull in and build the other two project files?? That is how I have the mac and Linux project files configured.

Yup, you can do that. However, nckomodo, you'll probably run into the problem of not having GLaux.lib. You'll have to find it somewhere since in Windows 7 with recent Visual Studios it is deprecated.
Also Urkle, in the Overture solution file, there's a file there called 'keyentry.cxx' which doesn't seem to exist...is that a mistake? Same with 'keyentry.h'

You can exclude them from the project, they are not needed.
RE: Linking problem on windows - Urkle - 05-19-2010
Yea.. I forgot to remove the references.. I've committed a change to remove them.
RE: Linking problem on windows - nckomodo - 05-20-2010
Yeah, I found GLaux.lib, I'm trying to get it all building under one solution but it doesnt seem to want to spit out OALWrapper.lib where I want it to

Yeah I know, I just thought I'd point it out.

Are you using Visual Studio 2008? If so, you can set the output file in Project>properties>librarian>general
The place that the Overture project looks for it would be lib\OALWrapper.lib (relative to the OALWrapper folder).
Also, I finally got it to compile but...it doesn't work...I stuck it into my Penumbra: Overture installation but it just crashes right away....this is all the info Windows gives:

Code:
for (unsigned int i = 1; i != 0; i++)
