LCS modding help or request
« on: February 03, 2013, 01:34:46 am »

I'm trying to change the stat gains that your leader gets in the beginning of the game and then recompile the source, but when I tried, I got errors my programming friend says he's never seen before. So what I'm asking for is one of two things. Can someone compile the game with the provided newgame.cpp and link it for me or otherwise provide help as to /why/ it's failing? The file can be grabbed here:

There's nothing wrong with the code. What error messages are you getting?

LINK : fatal error LNK1123: failure during conversion to COFF: file invalid or corrupt.

No idea what it means, my friend doesn't either. I've reached the end of the help he can give me, and I'm pretty bad at actually tinkering with code. I was careful to only change the number values I was after, though, so I'm almost 100% sure I didn't accidentally the entire thing.

I don't think you accidentally the entire thing, at least not when editing that file; it looks like something else is at work unrelated to your changes.

I haven't seen that error before either, but Google is a masterful resource in situations like this. You might try following the advice given in the top answer on this page.

Excellent, I'll add it to my Internets collection, glad it worked for you. When I have enough Internets, I plan to make a belt full of them and use it like Batman's utility belt to fight crime.

You're collecting ? I do feel I owe you at least something since Im to poor to actually pay for all the LCS versions Ive download :/ [Gives Fox 20 internets for being awesome, and 4.64 internets for the LCS.]

Indeed, I do this.
