- Follow the instructions for fixing debug compiles in VS2008, which apply here as well.
- Right click on the client and server projects in VS and go to Properties > Configuration > General. Change Target Name to client and server respectively.
Fixing Warnings
If you want to remove the "precompiled header" warnings seen during a full compile, open these files in your client project and move #include "cbase.h" up to the first line:
- hud_locator.cpp
- hud_credits.cpp
- hud_flashlight.cpp
Compiling Under Linux
VS 2010 introduces a new project file format (.vcxproj) which is not compatible with the SDK's VprojToMake tool. A third-party update adding support is available.
