I don't have a \Boost-1.32.0 or \Python24 directory with my CvGameCoreDLL folder. I grabbed the one off the original post in here as for some reason the Steam version I have doesn't appear to have those folders. Is there someplace else I can find them?
EDIT for anyone else suffering this same problem: I found the boost and python folders necessary in the archive linked below. Adding those to my CvGameCoreDLL directory and then updating the makefile to point to them worked to successfully compile.

I have one problem with compiling. FOR TARGET i used BTS source codes.
I have 2 PCs:
- first: WIN XP SP3 32-bits
- second: WIN 7 Ultimate 64-bits
XP compile BTS source codes successfully, WIN 7 unsuccessfully. WHY ? I DON'T KNOW.
I used Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate on both PCs.
I do SAME on both PCs before compiling, i attached one RAR file (see attachment),
RAR file, have 4 files:
- XP_Makefile (Makefile from WIN XP)
- XP_OUTPUT (VS2010 output from WIN XP)
- WIN7_Makefile (Makefile from WIN 7)
- WIN7_OUTPUT (VS2010 output form WIN 7)

I AM FIX PROBLEM WITH MSB3073 error.
I HAVE TWO METHODS:
FIRST METHOD:
- First read this tutorial and try to do all steps in tutorial, install all which is necessary (RECOMEDED): http://modiki.civfanatics.com/index.php/How_to_Install_the_SDK
if you fail you can try my methods, members please correct me if I'm wrong somewhere, thanks.
This is more notes than tutorial and its experimental nature.
- Go to "Documents\Visual Studio 2010\Projects", create new folder there, give them name which you want, I am give name BTS
- Go to your Beyond the Sword folder, "Firaxis Games\Sid Meier's Civilization 4\Beyond the Sword\CvGameCoreDLL"
and copy all files from "CvGameCoreDLL" folder except "CvGameCoreDLL.rc" and "CvGameCoreDLL.vcproj"
copy files to "Documents\Visual Studio 2010\Projects\Your Project name", my is BTS ("Documents\Visual Studio 2010\Projects\BTS")
- Go here (DannyDaemonic thread) http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=370861 and download "Makefile+fastdep.7z (82.4 KB)" and "VS2010 Project Files.7z (2.8 KB)"
and extract these two files in "Documents\Visual Studio 2010\Projects\Your Project name" in my case "Documents\Visual Studio 2010\Projects\BTS"
- If you read tutorial and install all which is necessary to work, and if paths is default, there is no need to change anything in your "Makefile", except if you install them on some another location
One more thing: "Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A" is automatic install during Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate installation, but you can download them from internet.
Default paths, check where is your "Microsoft Visual C++ Toolkit 2003" and "Microsoft SDKs" here is their default location, "Makefile" appearance:
TOOLKIT=C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual C++ Toolkit 2003
PSDK=C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A
- Next step, open your Visual Studio, File -> Open -> Projects/Solution and find your folder "Documents\Visual Studio 2010\Projects\Your Project name", my case "Documents\Visual Studio 2010\Projects\BTS"
and choose "CvGameCoreDLL.vcxproj" and click Open
If you get Security Warning pop-up click OK, and wait until VS load all files, in down left corner you will see "Ready" when VS finish loading files for project, I always wait that, but do is important to wait, not sure.
- Choose Debug or Release what you want (Debug is default), choose Build -> Build Solution, Windows will ask you where you want to save your "CvGameCoreDLL.sln" file, just click Save and wait for your "CvGameCoreDLL.dll" file.
I am try this method several times on Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bits (compile BTS source code) and its succeed.
- I am tested this with new files, after successful build, I am replace my files (Source BTS) with source files from LoR (only .h and .cpp files) in "Documents\Visual Studio 2010\Projects\BTS"
- Open Visual Studio, File -> Open -> Projects/Solution, find my folder "Documents\Visual Studio 2010\Projects\BTS" and open again "CvGameCoreDLL.vcxproj", not "CvGameCoreDLL.sln" (Different with .sln and .vcxproj files, maybe I think to know), maybe some experienced programmer can explain this
- Repeat steps from previous paragraph (From: "If you get Security Warning pop-up..."), BUT THIS TIME I AM CHOOSE "Build -> Rebuild Solution", because I have already built solution, let's rebuild them.
- I am successful compile LoR with this method.
If you get error MSB3073 there is something wrong with your Makefile or with .vcxproj file.
In .vcxproj file is almost configuration problem (When you open VS2010, choose Project -> Properties, click on Configuration Properties and on NMake
this part is explain in tutorial http://modiki.civfanatics.com/index.php/How_to_Install_the_SDK from Configuration you can choose Active(Debug), Debug, Release, All Configuration
In all of these configurations you have "Build Command Line", "Rebuild All Command Line", "Clean Command Line", "Output", you must all of this configure property.
SECOND METHOD:
- First read this tutorial and try to do all steps in tutorial, install all which is necessary (RECOMEDED): http://modiki.civfanatics.com/index....nstall_the_SDK
if you fail you can try my method, members please correct me if I'm wrong somewhere, thanks.
This method is explain in tutorial http://modiki.civfanatics.com/index.php/How_to_Install_the_SDK but I will explain this on my way:
- Open Visual Studio
- File -> New -> Project
- From "Installed Templates" choose "Visual C++" choose "General" choose "Makefile Project"
- Name: write some name for your project, in my case I will write "NEW_BTS"
- Location: "\Documents\Visual Studio 2010\Projects\", my case: "C:\Users\Aleksandar\Documents\Visual Studio 2010\Projects\"
- UNCHECK the box that says "Create Directory for Solution"
- Click OK
- Makefile Project Wizard will open, click Next, clear all text box, click Next, click Finish.
- Let's configure the compiler. Click Project -> Properties, The "Your Project Name Properties Pages" window will open, in my case "NEW_BTS Name Properties Pages".
- In the left-hand box under "Configuration Properties" select "NMake"
- Select the "Debug" configuration from the "Configuration:" drop-down-box in the top left corner.
- In the right-hand box under "General" it says "Build Command Line".
- Click the empty box to the right of it and type nmake Debug
- In "Rebuild All Command Line" type nmake Debug_clean Debug
- In "Clean Command Line" type "$(VCInstallDir)bin\nmake.exe" Debug_clean
- In "Output" type CvGameCoreDll.dll
- Select the "Release" configuration from the "Configuration:" drop-down-box in the top left corner.
- In "Build Command Line" type nmake Release
- In "Rebuild All Command Line" type nmake Release_clean Release
- In "Clean Command Line" type "$(VCinstallDir)bin\nmake.exe" Release_clean
- In "Output" type CvGameCoreDll.dll
- Click OK
- Go to your Beyond the Sword folder, "Firaxis Games\Sid Meier's Civilization 4\Beyond the Sword\CvGameCoreDLL"
and copy all files from "CvGameCoreDLL" folder except "CvGameCoreDLL.rc" and "CvGameCoreDLL.vcproj"
- In Visual Studio In Solution Explorer (Left Side in VS, if your VS is set to C++ settings)
left click on "Your Project Name", in my case "NEW_BTS" and choose "Open Folder in Windows Explorer" OR open folder "Documents\Visual Studio 2010\Projects\Your Project Name"
in my case "Documents\Visual Studio 2010\Projects\NEW_BTS"
- Paste here, in "Documents\Visual Studio 2010\Projects\Your Project Name", copied files from "Firaxis Games\Sid Meier's Civilization 4\Beyond the Sword\CvGameCoreDLL"
- In VS, Project -> Add Existing Item
- Add Existing Item window will open, You can see File name, right from him, you will see select box, in which you can choose:
All Files(*.*), Visual C++ Files, Web Files, and etc.
You only want to add: all *.h files, all (2) *.inl files, all *.cpp files and the both subfolders. Let's add them
Choose "Visual C++ Files", Select everything (use Ctrl+A) and click -Add-.
Only add all .h all .cpp all .inl and Boost-1.32.0 folder and Python24 folder don't add any other file with another extension.
- Go here (DannyDaemonic thread) http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=370861 and download "Makefile+fastdep.7z (82.4 KB)"
and extract this file in "Documents\Visual Studio 2010\Projects\Your Project name" in my case "Documents\Visual Studio 2010\Projects\NEW_BTS"
- If you read tutorial and install all which is necessary to work, and if paths is default, there is no need to change anything in your "Makefile", except if you install them on some another location
One more thing: "Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A" is automatic install during Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate installation, but you can download them from internet.

TOOLKIT=C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual C++ Toolkit 2003
PSDK=C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A
- Save your Project
- Choose Debug or Release what you want (Debug is default), choose Build -> Build Solution
- I am try this method several times on Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bits (compile BTS source code) and its succeed.
- I am tested this with new files, after successful build, I am replace my files (Source BTS) with source files from Advanced Diplomacy (only .h and .cpp files) in "Documents\Visual Studio 2010\Projects\NEW_BTS"
- Open Visual Studio, File -> Open -> Projects/Solution, find my folder "Documents\Visual Studio 2010\Projects\NEW_BTS"
- Open your .vcxproj file
I am repeat this step:
- In VS, Project -> Add Existing Item ... add only .h, .cpp, .inl and Boost-1.32.0 folder and Python24 folder, this time and every next you will have several new folders like Debug, Release, etc.. deselect them.
- Save your Project
- Choose Debug or Release what you want (Debug is default), choose Build -> Rebuild Solution, REBUILD THIS TIME.
- I am successful compile Advanced Diplomacy with this method.
(Edit: Never mind, I've found out the problem. I wasn't using Asaf's source files for some reason. I sorted that, recompiled, deleted the .rc file as suggested by Fanatic Demon here, and the mod works. Sorry to be a bother, please tell me if I should delete this post.)
I'm a newbie who's managed to compile a .dll, but it crashes when I try to load the game with my mod. I haven't changed any code yet. I've used the base files where possible, the boost/python folders linked by kormer, and then the project files from the first post on top of those.
When I try to debug I get the following in the output window:

I also get an error pop-up window called "Steam error", saying "Application load error T:0000065432".
Here's the altered segment of my makefile.
Code:
#### Paths ####
TOOLKIT=C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual C++ Toolkit 2003
PSDK=C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A
CIVINSTALL=C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Sid Meier's Civilization IV Beyond the Sword\Beyond the Sword
GLOBALBOOST=$(CIVINSTALL)\Assets\Boost-1.32.0
GLOBALPYTHON=$(CIVINSTALL)\Assets\Python24
## Uncomment to have newly compiled dlls copied to your mod's Assets directory
YOURMOD=$(CIVINSTALL)\Mods\One Sided Die\
The boost/python folders have been placed in (civinstall)\assets by me, I gather that's not their default location. Trying to put it any deeper caused problems with compilation due to the length of the dir.
I'm using VS 2010 Express, if that helps. Anyway, chances are that I've done something daft, but my Google skills have failed me. Does anyone know what I'm messing up?
Well, I decided to try my hand at this once more, but once again, it fails to work for me...
I used both my own BTS's files as well as the archive mentioned in the guide, but neither worked. I overwrote these files with RevDCM's files (the mod I base my own mod off). I then merged the six files found here with those of RevDCM, but alas, the compilation failed.

1>C:\Program wordt niet herkend als een interne

Apparently, it treats the space in 'Program Files' as a separation, and tries to execute the command ('assignment'?) 'C:\Program. But it doesn't recognise this as an internal or external assignment, program, or batch file.
Isn't that included in the above .rar? The files come from this guide, overwritten by RevDCM's files, and then I manually merged the six files of the BonusCommerceYields mod.
While reading about this problem, I also ran across a post that replaced the spaces in the DIR path with underscores. I'm not sure if that works or not.
Yep, I got that too. The second post on this page (shortcut for convenience's sake) solves that. I recommend you extract the Boost-1.32.0 and Python24 folders to a place that's got a shorter DIR than a BTS mod; I lazily extracted them to my MyMod folder, and I got errors because of that. My current DIR works fine at the moment, using these lines in the makefile:

CIVINSTALL=C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Sid Meier's Civilization IV Beyond the Sword\Beyond the Sword
GLOBALBOOST=$(CIVINSTALL)\Assets\Boost-1.32.0

@need my speed
I am test your files and i am get MSB3073 error which i am described several post above how to fix that #305
You have bad makefile !
Your MAKEFILE:
Code:
PSDK=C:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK
First you use wrong PSDK, i haven't that PSDK and when i was that PSDK i cannot compile with that PSDK.
I use
One more thing: "Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A" is automatic install during Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate installation, but you can download them from internet.
next, you miss CIVINSTALL= In my makefile that is:
Code:
CIVINSTALL=E:\Program Files (x86)\Firaxis Games\Sid Meier's Civilization 4\Beyond the Sword
And next you have made several syntax error in your code. That is from me.
Here is MakeFile from my mod which really good work, just change your path correct and fix your syntax errors:
If you're using a 64 bit version of Windows, you must use the directory "C:\Program Files (x86)\..." in your make file. The Visual C++ Toolkit is a 32 bit program and installs in the 32 bit folder.
Yeah, about that, is there any way I can move all those random Microsoft folders to my HDD (D? They're currently clogging up my SSD (C:, which, by the way, has a Program Files and a Program Files (x86), whereas for my HDD I simply have a Program Files HDD), but I never got the option to choose an install directory.
Also, thank you! I'll do all those changes, though after reinstalling / moving those Microsoft things, if at all possible. I do, however, have Boost and Python folders.
I used the 2008 express but it said that the sln file was made by a new version and couldn't be used. I used 2013 and it just wouldn't load. I used CodeBlocks' compiler but it didn't load there either. Help please.
