OpenTTD Compiling Error LNK20**

[Noltibus]

Hello,

when I try to compile the latest OpenTTD version from the source code provided in the SVN I get the errors shown in the picture below. I use Visual Studio 15 Community edition and already did everything written here: https://wiki.openttd.org/Compiling_on_W ... 2B%2B_2012.
If anyone has any Ideas please let me know!
Thanks in advance!!!

Have you installed the appropriate openttd-useful? I don't use windows, but iirc there's a newer version than linked by default from our website; might be that it's required for the 2015 version of MSVC.

new experimental: https://www.openttd.org/en/download-openttd-useful/6.0
default: https://www.openttd.org/en/download-openttd-useful https://www.openttd.org/en/download-openttd-useful/5.1

sprintf is a function from the Standard C Library. That looks rather odd, because if that one'd be missing you'd get tons of unresolved symbols. Is that overloaded somewhere or implicitely defined due to a missing #include ?

Thanks! The new packages helped!
Now when I try to executed the resulting openttd.exe it says: "No available language packs (invalid version?)"
Any ideas?
I compiled it in debug mode

EDIT: Got it, thanks guys

I have a request:
while the memory is still fresh after successfully working through the problem, can you create the MSVC 2015 version of the wiki page?
https://wiki.openttd.org/?title=Compili ... ction=edit

Even if that means copying and pasting most of the contents from 2012 version and only updating the link to the updated version of openttd-useful, someone may still find the page helpful.

I very much support that request
