Re: How to install DarkGDK
hmm you may be right but I used the link on the game creators website and it took me to the 2010 edition download so I just presumed it was fine.
Re: How to install DarkGDK
I'll give it a try and check back if it works. I've been really wanting to make the switch to 2010, but wasn't sure if DarkGDK would work with it. If I compile one of the wizards with the 2010 IDE, I'll post the proof.

Re: How to install DarkGDK
ok. so after many attempts. it wont compile. it throws lots of linker errors. partly due to the fact that you now have to specify "include" and "library" paths in the project configuration instead of it being readily available in the tools menu ( which is such a bust ). sorry, but i tried, honestly, i did

Re: How to install DarkGDK

guess I'll be sticking to 2008 then...
Thanks for trying it though

Re: How to install DarkGDK
yea, tried 2010 and it does have problems with GDK templates, use 2008 instead
