Well, the crux of that problem is that it is trying to find the entry point for your code, but isn't. For DarkGDK apps, this is usually "void DarkGDK ( void ){}"

Looking at your compile line, I'm guessing you are making a DLL due to the /MDd flag. Odd that you are trying to name that DLL "FPS Map Editor 2.exe".

If you are really trying to make an EXE, go into your projects properties and under Configuration Properties->General, change "Configuration Type" from Dynamic Library (DLL) to Application (EXE).

Using DGDK since 01/01/2008

It already says "Application (Exe)"

Check that you have this option checked:
Project->Properties->Code Generation->Runtime Library Multi-threaded Debug (/MTd).

I don't know if your using an earlier version of DGDK which came with both the debug and release versions of the libraries.

However, if you are using the latest free library then it only comes with a release library and if you are building an executable you need to have the runtime library set to:

Multi-threaded (/MT)

Otherwise it will be built with the wrong runtime libraries and you'll get linker errors.

Edit you project configuration as Ferris pointed out above but set it to /MT

Not sure why you are getting the LNK1561 error unless, as John suggested, the project thinks it's building a DLL and is looking for a DLL entry point!

Did you use a Dark GDK template to create your Project?

No matter how good your code is, someone will improve on it
