Well I need to get to some 'command line' in VC++ 6 to run a '/Zm' command because the compiler is out of memory and my program is too large to compile at the default.
IIRC, you can edit the command line options from the IDE by going to 'Project", then "Settings" and they're under the "General" tab I believe. I can't confirm that because I don't have VC++ 6 installed on my machine at the moment, but it should give you a start for your search.
Ok thanks. But now that I set /zm I'm getting this error during compilation:
Anyone know what is wrong?Quote:

The linker can't find main. Since main is an entry point into a standard C++ program, it's rather important that you define it. This error usually shows up when you try to compile a Win32 program in a console mode project because Win32 programs use WinMain as the entry point.
But I've compiled this project many times, in fact, I've even put it on these forums (in an early beta) for people to test in the games section. Then I added that code that caused me to have to use /Zm. Now it won't work. Main, as well as the rest of the program, is still there.Quote:
