    Sorry to be such a n00b, but I don't know how to create a functional version of the PT application from the edited source code :P. Have I got it wrong? Is that even what you're supposed to do? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    If you followed the instructions on the wiki, all you will need to do is to press the 'play' button up near the top, if you're using VC++

    I am, but I can't find the button :P. Which file should I have open, the .h or the .c?

    It doesn't matter what file you have open, as long as you've set it up correctly. I think you can also press 'F7' to work it

    I don't think he has VC++ open, he is just editing the files in word or something.
    What OS are you using?

    I must have the wrong program or something...I can't find a "freaking green arrow at the top", and F7 doesn't seem to produce any kind of response. It's "Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Express", right? Sorry to waste your time, but I guess we all have to start somewhere :P

    He should be using VC++. It's the easiest in my opinion to use, although it does give you a lot of unneccesary files air.obj powder.obj etc... the program (TPT) runs faster if I delete them...
