I'm trying to build handmade hero but get this error. I follow the instruction that was on the GitHub link, I'm using visual studio 2017. Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?

Which day are you trying to compile ? I can compile day 533 with Visual Studio 2017 without warnings or errors.
For the ctime error, you can add ctime to the path or edit build.bat to add the full path to ctime.exe. The exe is in the zip in the ctime folder.
Did you call vcvarsall.bat with x64 as an argument to compile for a 64bit target ? Something like:
It should display this if you do (important to have the 'x64' at the end).
For the warnings you can add "-wd4018 -wd4244" to the CommonCompilerFlags in build.bat but it's probably better to fix those in the code.
For the ctime error, you can add ctime to the path or edit build.bat to add the full path to ctime.exe. The exe is in the zip in the ctime folder.

Did you call vcvarsall.bat with x64 as an argument to compile for a 64bit target ? Something like:
1 | "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\VC\Auxiliary\Build\vcvarsall.bat" x64 |
It should display this if you do (important to have the 'x64' at the end).
1 2 3 4 5 | ********************************************************************** ** Visual Studio 2017 Developer Command Prompt v15.4.1 ** Copyright (c) 2017 Microsoft Corporation ********************************************************************** [vcvarsall.bat] Environment initialized for: 'x64' |
For the warnings you can add "-wd4018 -wd4244" to the CommonCompilerFlags in build.bat but it's probably better to fix those in the code.
So I did run vcvarsall.bat x64 originally and it showed Environment initialized for: 'x64' with no luck. I tried it from the ..\handmade\code directory and then it worked. I was unaware you had to run it from the handmade\code path.
Cheers for the reply!
Cheers for the reply!
I should not matter where you call vcvarsall.bat as long as you don't close the console window. But you need to call build.bat from the code directory.
