Compiling: beatmania APPEND 5thMIX -Time to get down-

[shiroi]

Has anyone been able to compile "beatmania APPEND 5thMIX -Time to get down-"
Currently I'm able to compile the main executable and objects.
But in the APPEND MAKEFILE i'm missing a dependency "safechk.obj"
Does anyone have or know any information about this object file?
It sounds as if it's for CD protection.

Probably just comment it out and not include it. You won't be able to find that object file anywhere unless it is re-generated by the linker during compilation, but you'll have to look at the source to find if they actually do that.

Another idea is maybe, just maybe, you might be able to extract the object code from the retail release of the game and re-create it that way. To do that, it's best to attempt 'spirit_t0asters' work: http://www.psxdev.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=62&t=1582

"Another idea is maybe, just maybe, you might be able to extract the object code from the retail release of the game and re-create it that way."

Hmm, that might work as well.

By the way, new guy here as well. Whenever I’m taking a break from this particular interest, I’m usually found at home, watching my Pomeranian relax in his cooling dog bed while watching TV with the wife and kids. Such a simple, yet, happy life. Have a nice day!

I'm back, thanks for replying. I am locked out of my previous account :/
After deleting the comments (comments within data structures are causing parsing errors. And having spaces after semicolons will cause parsing errors.)

The pre-processor gives the error "Symbol multiply defined"
Does anyone know what this error means in regards to "ccpsx.exe"

That looks more like a linker error than anything from the preprocessor.

Sorry, I had multiple definitions from linking different libraries.
I have a similar error caused? by "MTS.LIB"

Without "MTS.LIB" ccpsx throws,

Is the "Symbol multiply defined" error only caused by multiple definitions?

[Administrator]

That's strange. They've made their own printf function it seems and it's a multiple now of Psy-Q's. You could try disabling linking with the default Psy-Q libs and not include the one that has printf, or if that library source is compilable and linkable, rename the function.
