I attempted to compile the NEHE Halloween demo from 2000, with the following results: halloween error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _BASS_MusicSetAmplify@8 referenced in function _main halloween error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _BASS_StreamPlay@12 referenced in function "void __cdecl init(void)" (?init@@YAXXZ) halloween error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _BASS_StreamCreateFile@20 referenced in function "void __cdecl init(void)" (?init@@YAXXZ) halloween error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _BASS_Start@0 referenced in function "void __cdecl init(void)" (?init@@YAXXZ) halloween error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _BASS_MusicLoad@20 referenced in function "void __cdecl init(void)" (?init@@YAXXZ) halloween error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _BASS_Init@16 referenced in function "void __cdecl init(void)" (?init@@YAXXZ) halloween error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _BASS_Free@0 referenced in function "void __cdecl kill(void)" (?kill@@YAXXZ) halloween error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _BASS_StreamFree@4 referenced in function "void __cdecl kill(void)" (?kill@@YAXXZ) halloween error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _BASS_MusicFree@4 referenced in function "void __cdecl kill(void)" (?kill@@YAXXZ) halloween error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _BASS_MusicPlayEx@16 referenced in function _main I''ve been searching with no luck so far, wondered if any seasoned guru''s could lend a hand and tell me what library I might be missing? IN VC++ 7.0, under the Linker settings, I''ve added the .lib files: OpenGL32.lib GLu32.lib GLaux.lib I run XP Professional with the VS.NET Architect suite. The only findings I''ve run across in research so far state that in VC++ 7 they handle the standard libraries much different than conventional VC++ 6, but not sure what I need to modify to compile the sample. I was able to run the compiled demo that comes with the source, so I know it works on the machine.

You need to download and link to the BASS .lib file(s) too!

halloween error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _BASS_MusicSetAmplify@8 referenced in function _main


just read what you got as werror..

_BASS_MusicSetAmplify
what does that tell you? opengl? no. it tells you BASS. and MUSIC.

why are linker errors always something that complicated? just read wich functions the linker did not found, see what they are, look them up in the web, what ever, and link to the needed lib, or include the needed .cpp in your project.
