You know the great thing about a wiki?

Instead of bumping a 5 month old thread to ask someone else to add information thats listed, you could to that yourself!

Yes, but I don't know how to upload pictures 

(I've updated by myself some other threads, so please, don't suppose I'm SO LAZY. Although, maybe, I should have asked in Wiki zone how to do it ...)

Finally I've uploaded the info to Wiki (without images). Please check it, (I'm neither code expert nor English speaker)

Thanks a bunch for that.

you guys should really consider moving to SVN instead of CVS, it's way better.

If we did, would you join the SCP?

well, if i could get the visual studio 2005 build to build an exe that didn't crash, probably so.

Actually, that other new guy who was trying to build ran into the same issue so maybe karajorma has helped him out enough so i can borrow a fix from him.

The problem wasn't linking errors, i solved all those, it was that it successfully builds an exe that crashes.

This was back when i was importing VC6 files into 2005 project tho - i heard there is a better 2005 project checked in now.

Great.  I prolly just wasted 20 mins... http://www.hard-light.net/wiki/index.php/Getting_the_FreeSpace2:_SCP_Source_Code


It was already done.. sorry, I used the freakin' search function instead of reading the rest of the thread.  By now I should know never to trust any search engine on a forum / wiki... they're worthless.    I searched "tortoise", I searched "cvs", and this didn't show.  Oh, and sorry for the


EDIT: Well, at least I learned how to upload pictures, link them, format wiki text, and insert links in the wiki.. not a total waste, I guess. 

EDIT2: And it's all kara's fault.  He didn't link to the wiki; he linked to his post.

Well, yours has pictures. That means you win Much easier to follow that way.

[Edit] How about this: We'll keep your version, make the old, bland one into a redirect, and stick links to your version in both http://www.hard-light.net/wiki/index.php/Getting_Started%28Main%29 and http://www.hard-light.net/wiki/index.php/Development_Reference ?

[jr2]

Oh.  I guess it was worth it then.  Should we merge the two?  ( kara? )

[Shade]

Changed links to point to your article, and added a few redirects to cover some likely search terms (getting the source, getting the code, getting the source code).

Thx.
