When ever i compile a project that uses the Darksdk i get a warning "LINK : warning LNK4075: ignoring '/EDITANDCONTINUE' due to '/INCREMENTAL:NO' specification" and dont know where to put the '/INCREMENTAL:NO' in vc.net 2003

Also my EXE files come out bigger than the ones that are pre compile with the SDK ie. the terrain 1 that comes witht hte sdk is 1.8mb i compile and its 1mb bigger. Any idea?

See the picture for where the incremental stuff should be controlled.

thanks, now n e idea on how to make the EXE files smaller ??
They just seem so big as compared to the compiled EXE files that come in the SDK

Also started getting this now on ALL projects LINK : warning LNK4098:
"defaultlib 'LIBC' conflicts with use of other libs; use /NODEFAULTLIB:library"

Are you in debug mode ? If so, use Release mode.
In addition, make sure you use standard windows libraries only.

You have to create a standard Windows project, so it cant use MFC.
It should be changable in the project configuration properties, and set it to Standard Window Libraries.

If that doesn't work, try creating a new Windows 32 project (executable).

That brings it down a bit (not quiet as small as the sample ones) but good enough

Do you have a resource file in the project ? If so, try removing that and make sure the optimisations are on.

Probably were done with VS6 and not .Net 2003. Could be VS6 executables are smaller than .Net

Maybe

The SDK is pretty cool tho, moving over from Blitz3D i just got to get used to using memblocks (which i wish i didnt have to do) but i have been advised that its the best thing to do

That right, the demos are compiled with VS6 in release mode.

Memblocks are your friend!

Too windy and isolated for me - and Tureo is way too crowded.
