Try manually adding the required lib file to your project as you would a cpp or header file. It will automatically be linked into your game and at least this way you can be sure the lib file you are using is the one you want.
try:
of course the best thing is to just put the lib into you "lib" folder, i think directX is always backwards compatible so you only stand to gain from that.
#pragma comment(lib, "C:/PATH_TO_THE_LIB/ddraw.lib")of course the best thing is to just put the lib into you "lib" folder, i think directX is always backwards compatible so you only stand to gain from that.
Looks like youre going thru tricks of the game programming gurus by the look of the files...
Just follow his example, check your code if you typed it in manually and follow his instructions for setting up vc++ in the appendix.
Which btw is an awesome book, excellent choice!
