^ Because SOMEONE made the latest DirectX SDK strictly necessary in order to compile instead of putting some if's.
And that screws up the old revs for those with new SDK's.

Ou.....Anyway, thanks for the info, like darkshadow I oly get the plugins.
There is just the tinyest bug in the guide: you have a repeated registry key in both tables-- 63 should be 66 in one of the rows as follows (changes in bold)

I noticed this, the reg keys are in a block with that prefix anyway which is probably why it went unnoticed. I've now got Visual Studio compiling both versions with much success. ^_^ Now I might finally be able to setup an automatic compile/host chain.

Oh: the instructions say "Rebuild Again" but I don't see that option in the Build menu. I've always just done a "Clean" followed by a "Rebuild" to make it work, but am I missing some quicker option? (build process takes a good 6-10 minutes, and this is a Dolphin-quality machine-- high performance.)

Anyway, I'm going to see if I can't also get a build of VBA-m going with the link port, provided I can figure out how to enable this. Woot for Tiny Chao Garden! (and isn't there a Tingle thing in Wind Waker?)
I can't find AMD64.VCPlatform.Config; There's nothing there, I've installed Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition about 3 times by now and it just doesn't appear...
Can someone help me on that because I really want to compile Dolphin x64 myself...
Thanks

PS: I am using Windows 7 Ultimate x64; .NET 3.5 installer doesn't start, DirectX SDK installed and Microsoft SDK aswell...
Make sure you are looking into C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\vcpackages
Not Program Files is Program Files (x86) because you are using x64 window...
.Net 3.5 sp1 you can get it here:

I know, I'm (in comparisation to some ppl on the internet) not stupid Tongue
I'll show you an image...
Have you check the X64 compiler when installing the visual studio express?
Default is not checked. May be you should choose custom and check it yourself?

There aren't any options I can change, see the image...
May be the express version changed and not support x64 compiler....
I don't know, just wait other ppl to help you...

Possible, I believe Microsoft hosts the SP1 version, if that is a problem...
