first of all I want to say that I\'m really impressed with this engine(Cube). I get really good performance on low end hardware with nice visuals. I would really like to use this engine to develop games but I\'m having some problems compiling it with microsoft visual studio 6.

i know this package was developed for msvc 7. I converted the .sln file to a .dsw file. after looking through some forum posts, I got rid of the first set of errors involving loopi and loadgameout(). I\'m very close to getting this compiled but I\'m still getting \'unresolved externals\' errors:

error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __imp__timeBeginPeriod@4

I get three of them. could someone give me a hand with this or provide some information or direction for me? I know C++ but I don\'t know my IDE and options that well. I know there are probably others who would benefit from this as well can this error even be resolved?

thanks in advance =)
