Below is the code change:

im new to programming, but this piece of code seems to be missing the #if statement. where in this section of code would the #if go? Thanks

EDIT:

reworked the code and it worked

I have a question can I use: Microsoft Visual C++, Professional Edition for Compiling?

If it is the 2008 version, it should. I have 2005, so I had to install the 2008 express version linked in the guide

for all the people having problems USE Visual C++ 2005! not 2008! because thats where the most problems come from... and i wrote the guid thinking that the people that will use it have compiler experience you might have to add windows server 2003 sdk files to it. if you dont know i guess ill tell you do this:

first download the sdk and install it it to its default: [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]

now goto Tools> Options > Projects and Solutions > VC++ Directories

In the upper right drop down box, select "Executable files" and add "...\Microsoft Platform SDK\Bin"

Then select "Include files" and add "...\Microsoft Platform SDK\Include" and "...\Microsoft Platform SDK\Include"

Then select "Library files" and add "...\Microsoft Platform SDK\Lib" and "...\Microsoft Platform SDK\Lib\x86"

In the Solution Explorer right click your project, and select Properties, then

In your project properties window, navigate to Linker -> Input
Select the 'Additional Dependencies' box. Then click the '...' on the right hand side of the box

If there is already an entry here, take a new line after it (a space will suffice if you cannot create a new line), and type 'user32.lib' and 'kernel32.lib' with a space between them, and without the quotes.

then repeat this process for the other porjects if there are more.

now you shouldnt have any problems anymore. and remember this guid is for Visual C++ 2005!

updated the guid and updated all links for visual c++ 2005

im having trouble with the dbc file spell.dbc could someone send me a copy of theirs?? thanks

Edit: problem fixed. ran extractor on friends pc to get the file

I got Microsoft Visual Studio 6.0 Autoren Edition can I use it, too?

Windows is bugging around cant download 2005

ive got everything running, but i cant get past handshaking when i run WOW. anyone know what i can do to get it to get past this point?

Hallo zusammen. Erst mal danke für diese coole Tutorial.
Aber ich habe ein Problem das beim compilieren auftritt und zwar krieg ich als Fehlermeldung:
3>c:\ascentsource\ascent\src\ascent-realmserver\RStdAfx.h(40) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'zlib.h': No such file or directory

Kann das sein das bei den neuen Links die zlib.h nicht mehr vorhanden ist? Falls es so ist wie krieg ich es dann kompliliert?

i got same

thats a common problem people have if they didnt set there password corretly in the cfg files better said that also sometimes comes when trying to connect to your own computer considering ascent wasnt created as a 1 player server. if your passwords are correct try hammering the Enter key untill you get threw.

Windows is bugging around cant download Visual Basic 2005 could sbdy plz upload it with rapidshare.com? or can i use Microsoft Visual Studio 6.0 Autoren Edition, too?

this could be from not all of the SQL updates have been done. there is a section on the guide about updating the logon, world, character updates. basically to be sure you get them all start at the highest one and continue to do the updates utnil you get an error. when you get your first error you are updated.

thats teh easiest way to be sure your updated.
