C++ building issue

[jayn23]

Hi,

i am very new to C++ so please dont judge me

I have been trying to build a project from source code i found and seem to have an issue,
i have added all Lib and Include directories to appropriate location and when i build as a win32 project i have no issue and file is successfully created.
when i try to build the exact same project under x64, i get an error msg that *.h " No such file or directory" for all files that previously worked.
how can i fix this?

i am building from 3dsmax SDK and these files seem to be relevant for both x32 and x64 as far as i can tell

Thanks in advance

If you're using Visual Studio, then you probably have to change configuration in project settings for your new build
like adding new include directories or library directories

But remember to choose Configuration and platform in the settings window first

Thanks for the fast reply

I am using a 2013 3ds max SDK and the only files in the x64 folder of the SDK are .lib which i have included in my project (i also left the x32 version)
but all the .h and .cpp files are under the x86 the i assume the are relevant for both

I changed my platform and configuration unfortunately that didn't work

any more tricks i could try?

Can you attach a screenshots of your additional include directories and additional library directories (in both configurations)?
And also some listing or screenshots of source folder structure?

Ill just update that one of the many solutions suggested by ikskoks worked for me so thanks a lot.
i ended up using absolute paths for my include files.
