KMQuake 2 source code error

I have a problem with the KMQuake 2 source code when I compile the "engine source code (updated ) you can download of here: http://kmq2.quakedev.com/files/kmquake2 ... fx3_src.7z" sends me this error "win32 \ q2_2005.rc (10): fatal error RC1015: can not open include file 'afxres.h'" I'm using the Microsoft Visual C + + 2010 Exprerss to compile.

the afxres.h retardedness is a broken part of some visual stupio version.
I think technically afxres.h is part of MFC, which isn't provided with express versions of msvc, and I've never heard of any quake engines actually using MFC as its not really intended for that sort of thing.
you can prolly work around it by just changing the include line to 'windows.h' instead or something like that.

Read more in the thread where I got GLQuake to compile using Visual C++ Express 2008:

In that thread there is downloadable project file .zip, you could open that up and see what modifications I did to side-step use of afxres.h -- which should apply to a Q2 engine as well.

In other words, your q2_2005.rc to the modified winquake.rc and adjust it accordingly. Or open up the DarkPlaces .rc file as a model.

Ok, but I do not understand how I can fix the problem,
I need to tell me step by step I should do to compile without errors, the source code of KMQuake 2

Search and already found what I think is the file "afxres.h" of this web page: "http://www.koders.com/c/fid533F9524B20E ... s=afxwin.h " but it just goes compile sends me these errors:

in the .rc file replace the "afxres.h" with "windows.h"
then add this right after that...

Code: Select all

#ifndef _AFXRES_H
#define _AFXRES_H
#if __GNUC__ >= 3
#pragma GCC system_header
#endif

#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C" {
#endif

#ifndef _WINDOWS_H
#include <windows.h>
#endif

/* IDC_STATIC is documented in winuser.h, but not defined. */
#ifndef IDC_STATIC
#define IDC_STATIC (-1)
#endif

#ifdef __cplusplus
}
#endif
#endif

then comb thru the errors. Took me about 15 minutes to get it to compile without any warnings.
