So, I REALLY want to contribute to this project disregarding my basic knowledge of C++, therefore as explained in wiki I managed to clone the "repo" (is my slang right? xD) with Git; what I didn't know is that the repo has a project structure I was oblivious of (I was just opening headers and other files with either Notepad or Dev-C++, ugh), then i figured out there was a "Solution" file in the win32, so I tried to run it with a fresh install of VC2010Express... which could have loaded the project perfectly if not for this report:
Code: Select all
C:\Users\Project2100\warzone2100\* : error : The imported project "C:\Users\Project2100\warzone2100\devpkg\FlexBison.props" was not found. Confirm that the path in the <Import> declaration is correct, and that the file exists on disk. C:\Users\Project2100\warzone2100\*
//Where '*' corresponds to 4 separate "projects":
// "src\warzone2100.vcxproj";
// "lib\script\script.vcxproj";
// "gamelib\gamelib.vcxproj";
// "lib\framework\framework.vcxproj";
...and there is where I am at a stop: I cannot figure out how to effectively "use" these 2 programs to make the project work correctly >.<
Could anyone give any tips on how to go on?
Note: It's the first time i try to participate on a common project, so I am certain I'm missing a lot of other things...
Feel free to add any unrelated advice
