new map generator - Page 7

yes, script.spt can be blank, i am not sure what the error you are getting is. mapgen was built on an xp machine. i may have built it with some kind of odd setting though and forgot, i will have to check it out, anyone else getting this error?

I get the same error:

"The application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem."

Likewise, I am running WinXP SP 2.

i did try the old build on a pc at school and had no problems running it, so i'm not exactly sure what the problem is, i'm assuming it was the build properties that i had set in vs, which weren't getting me anything anyway, so i changed them all back to default. if this does not work, i may have to use another compiler. is the old build working for anyone?

also a note on scripting, as there seems to be a bit of confusion. default settings are programmed into mapgen, thus script.spt may be empty and it will generate a map with the default settings. if you want to modify the defaults, edit script.spt with the scripting commands here .

I get the same error with this attachment, as well.

well, looks like i will have to try some other compiler than visual studio. will try and have another build up tonight.

ok, i think the problem is stemming from the fact that vs is linking with some libraries that are not installed on your pc, but were on the pcs that i was testing on. those of you having problems, you dont have vs on your machines do you?

edit: looks like i did not remove all references to windows libraries in the code. will have a new build to try momentarily.

I won't be able to try the 2nd attachment until I get home tonight, but I do have visual studio 6.0 installed on my pc.

I don't have virtual studio, no.

ok, i think i caught all of the windows refs, so give this a whirl. the next thing i can try is removing all of the std::cout's and fstream and go to good old printf. hopefully it will not come to that.

in win2000, at work it generates the map ok. but they are not wrapped.

typed this on script.spt:

wraparound: wraptype; xy
