Leave Tortoise SVN installed because it Is needed to update SVNs
@MrThunderwing: It costs $674 new but it is $408 used (Only in my country)

I suddenly felt the urge to tackle this again today, and I was hit with a brainwave to get around the Direct X SDK problem - I used my old PC to do it. I was able to install the Direct X SDK with no issue and Visual Studio, likewise, installed with no problems (albeit it took over an hour to install from the DVD I'd previously burned) and, boom, managed to compile a 32 bit build svn260 with no problems. Initially I couldn't get a 64 bit build to compile, it kept skipping the build, but a bit of Google searching revealed the problem - VS 2008 didn't install the 64 bit compiler as a default setting. I added that from the DVD and, double boom, working 64 bit svn build done!

Daytona 2 really does look and sound so much better now, it's great that those little moments of slowdown on the advanced an expert courses are a thing of the past and the widescreen option really looks nice on my living room TV. Great work as usual Bart and Nik!

Excellent! Good to hear that it's finally working for you.

hello need some help after the compilation I get this error.
thanks

Hi nuexzz,

The log you've uploaded is the upgrade log from the project upgrade wizard. Please will you post the build log instead as this will show us exactly what the compilation problem is (you say the error happens when you compile)?

What I have noticed from the upgrade log though is that it reports that you do not have the 64-bit build platform installed. Might the problem be that you are trying to build to 64-bit rather than 32-bit? Try getting it to work with 32-bit first. Then, if you want to build 64-bit you'll need to install the 64-bit platform appropriate for your VS version. For Visual Studio 2010 Express, which I assume you're using, this is done by downloading and installing the Windows Software Development Kit version 7.1.

Hope that helps, Nik.

Nik thanks for answer, here I leave my step (I do not find the 32bit or 64bit decision)

Hi nuexzz,

Thanks for the pics, that explains things better. It is the conversion step that you are having problems with after all, rather than with actual compilation of the project.

I don't know why the upgrade is not working for you, there's nothing particularly funky about the project files that would cause it to fail. I'm afraid I don't use Visual Studio 2010 myself to be able to test it out. Maybe someone else on here who does use it can help?

Has it worked for you before? Nothing has changed in the solution and project files for a while so maybe your files have got corrupted somehow. First of all I suggest you try deleting all the source files and checking out the whole source tree again from the SVN repository before re-trying.

Most likely though it is the missing 64-bit build platform on your PC that is preventing the solution from converting (after all, this is what the messages in the log seem to imply). If you're feeling brave you can try editing the solution and project files in notepad and removing all references to the 64-bit build (the files are just plain XML) before loading them again into VS2010. Or you can just install the Windows Software Development Kit as I suggested above. This would be the preferred solution as you won't be able to compile to 64-bits otherwise, just 32-bits.

Good luck! Cheers, Nik.

oye nuexzz, ami tambien me sale el mismo error al momento de abrir el projecto, por lo tanto creo que sea problema de si es de 32 o 64 bits

good,Nik thanks for everything,You are very friendly.And is working for me.
I decided to go on the safe (2008 express install)
everything works as expected I can only build 32bit, but for some reason I can not install platforms 64 (. sln)
I speculate that the problem is po my S.O (unattended)

Si, parece que es asi. Para solucionarlo y poder compilar a 64-bits, creo que habria que instalar Windows Software Development Kit (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows ... 80924.aspx) como he dicho anteriormente. Cuando se instala Visual Studio 2010 Express lo normal es que falte este componente.

Saludos, Nik.
