Error when using the 'psymake' command

Post by **Tragic_Prince** » September 26th, 2015, 3:12 am

Hi guys!!
Since this is my 1st post let me congratulate all the people involved for their hard work!!

On to my question...
Ive installed PsyQ by reading the tutorial but every time that itry to use the command 'psymake' i get the following error:

C:\psyq\projects\hiwrold\source>psymake
PsyMake version 1.14 copyright SN Systems Software Ltd 1993
C:\psyq\bin\ccpsx.EXE -O3 -Xo$80010000 main.c -omain.cpe,main.sym,mem.map
cc1psx: C:\TEMP/cta03140: No such file or directory
Bad return code - make aborted

What is wrong whith it?
One more thing, ive opened the PSPATHS.BAT and saw that a typical path is like this "set PATH=C:\Psyq\bin;".
Shouldnt the word "Psyq" start with a small "p" rather than with a capital one? I saw at the Enviromental Variables that all the paths are registered like "C:\psyq\..."

So is it case sensitive or not?

Thanks alot!!!

Don't use PSPATHS.BAT. Delete that useless file. It's only good for use under Windows 9x.
Update your environment variables instead. The problem is that your temp directory is wrong.
No, it's not case sensitive.

Tomorrow I will update the help section and also remove that terribly messy Psy-Q SDK and replace it with the direct version from the original CD-ROM. That's been on my to do list for a while.

The original Psy-Q came on four floppy discs according the documentation.
If your development stuff came on CD-ROM it must be one of the Programmer's Tool Discs.
Some parts of those discs are even mixed with the SDK which is currently avaible in the download-section.

Ohhhh, you were absolutely right...I thought i have updated the path but somehow didn't.
Now it works, a BIG THANKS!!!
