How to compile anything
by P1raten

Ive seen many c++ releases here on mmowned.
And im sure there are many people who dont know how to compile them.
So i decided to make a guide.
So here we go.

.Preparations.
First you need to make sure that you have all the right software.

Microsoft Visual C++ Express Edition: Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition

You also need to make sure that you have a compiled core.
If you havent a compiled core then compile one.

Heres a guide: Click here

.Step I.
Download the thing that you want to compile.
I choose the GM Stone made by Zellcorp

.Step II.
When youve downloaded the desired file open it, it should be in a rar file.
In the rar file there should be a folder and a .sql file.
Press the button Extract to and extract it to your compiling directory, mine being D:\Compiling\Arcemu.

Everything should go on smoothly.

.Step III.
Now go to your compiling directory - once again mine being D:\Compiling\Arcemu\ - and then go to:
trunk>src>script>src.
Now were just gonna make sure that everything is where it should. In the current directory your in you should see a folder called GM_Stone.
If not, then youve done something wrong.
Now go back to the compiling directory and then go to:
trunk>src>script>projects
In there you should be able to find the file GM_Stone.vcproj.
And again if not, then youve done something wrong.

.Step IV.
Execute GM_Stone.vcproj by double clicking it, Microsoft Visual should be starting.
Now you just need to change the build from Debug to Release. And then hit the green arrow.


And then you should be done.

You can get the final product here: D:\Compiling\Arcemu\trunk\bin\Release\script_bin

or here

put the file in your scripts_bin folder.

If you have any questions what so ever feel free to post them here.
