Re: trouble compiling debug version 1.3.4 with VC++ express 2008

Thank-you Scheurneus,

I had read in forums that I needed to replace 'afxres.h' with 'windows.h',
but I did not realise that I could open the torcs.rc file in a standard
text editor. Therefore, I finally tried following the instructions for the
VS2005 instead. Even though I was using VS2008, these instructions made it
work for me, but maybe I should try it your way to see if there is any
difference in the performance.

On a brighter note, since I got the program to compile correctly and after
some fiddling around, I have managed to add the little bit of extra code I
needed to record the car's position on the track and speed travelling
(along with a few other variables) as a human is controlling the car. Woo
hoo!, one step closer to getting this PhD project up and running :)

Regards, Stacey.
