I tries to fix this, could you try again? If the site behaves otherwise 
weird please let me know.

Hi All,

I hope this is the right place for this post - I am new to TORCS and just
starting a project in Visual Studio 2012 with managed C# that will be
accessing many of the TORCS physics functionality. I have TORCS compiled
and running in debug from VS2012 and can share my experiences if anyone
else is planning to do the same.

I have been looking at different ways to get access from managed C#.
Writing a wrapper is probably the right way but it would be very boring and
laborious. ( Unless of course *a bit cheeky* but does anyone have a wrapper
they are willing to share? )

Has anyone else tried a different approach or is a wrapper the best way to
go?

NB Please tell me to go somewhere else or shut up if I am out of order
asking dumb questions.

Not sure if this is the right place to send the info, or if it already 
exists, but I wanted to share my experiences having now got a building 
running version in VS2012.

1. Make sure the scripts work. For some reason VS creates a file 1.5M 
file ~\Tors\runtimed therefore non of the dev build scripts work cleanly 
as you get a file or directory exists error. Renamed to -old fixed 
issue. Run scripts again.

2. As the Windows libraries were built on an older version, and I do not 
have the source code to rebuild them, you will get multiple errors such as:

Error    16    error LNK2026: module unsafe for SAFESEH image. 
D:\Torcs\src\modules\track\sg.lib(sgd.obj)    track

From
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/9a89h429.aspx

I learnt to go into each project except TORCS and in 
Properties-Configuration Properties-Linker-Command Line add /SAFESEH:NO 
into the Additional Options.

Again sorry if this is the wrong place ( where is right) or it is old news.

Steve
