4/29 2006 EDIT: I have recieved the help I needed and you no longer need to reply here to help me out.

With your help and some more help from people at #allegro mirc, I have been able to compile and distribute the game using Dev C++.
I am very grateful to everyone who helped me out. Thank you very much

The specific problem of this topic was not solved, but I no longer need to do it this way, so it does not matter to me.

Static Linking in MSVC++ Express 2005 with allegro gives me LINK : fatal error LNK1181: cannot open input file 'dinput.lib' I am trying to make a Static Release build of my project. When I build the project in debug mode it works fine but now I get this error. I tried removing all the directX files from the "additional dependencies" since I believe that I do not need them. After doing so, I get the following error: fatal error C1047: The object or library file 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\lib\alleg_s.lib' was created with an older compiler than other objects; rebuild old objects and libraries LINK : fatal error LNK1257: code generation failed Seriously, what should I do? Thank you in advance, Emil
