ack, MSVC screwing with me
MSVC just decided to compile every sorce file every time I start to build a project weather or not I have made changes to any dependencies or not, hell it will recompile things that it just compiled when I haven't changed anything in any file, is there some option that I may have unchecked that tells it to not recompile things that are up to date,
or maybe it doesn't know there up to date...
it is hapening in all projects not just FSO, in fact it started when I was building something completly diferent and I thought it was something I had screwed up in that project, but I just tried rebuilding FSO and it is compiling everything, wich means if I change one line in some code it recompiles everything wich takes about an hour and a half, were it should only compile the one file and be done in aboutfour seconds.
what hapened?

Check your system clock.

It "decides" to recompile based on timestamps. That's a common problem when your clock is off (I think when the clock is set to before the timestamp on the obj files, but don;t quote me, I just know it has to do with a flaky clock.)
