Compiling Voxlap in Visual C++ 2008 Express

  I know, i know...  Visual Studio Express 2005..
  
  But, now i want to add voxel support to a Doom port (an idea i know some people here like http://www.jonof.id.au/forum/index.php?topic=1580.0).
  
  The problem is, i have the ZDoom code compiling in Visual C++ 2008 Express... and when i try to compile Voxelstein with it, i got
  

  
  1> Assembling: .\Voxlap\v5.asm
  1>.\Voxlap\v5.asm(976) : error A2070:invalid instruction operands     punpckldq mm5, qword ptr _caddasm[edi+8]
  1>.\Voxlap\v5.asm(994) : error A2070:invalid instruction operands     punpckldq mm5, qword ptr _caddasm[edi+8]
  1>.\Voxlap\v5.asm(1019) : error A2070:invalid instruction operands    punpckldq mm5, qword ptr _caddasm[edi+8]
  

  
  
  
  
  The answer from microsoft about this is https://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=294468&wa=wsignin1.0 which I don't understand at all  ;D. Except the part when they say they won't solve it until MASM 10 :S, IF they solve it.
  
  So i was wondering, has anyone compiled Voxlestein (in fact, im more interested in Animator, for my purposes) in Visual C++ 2008 Express?

  Re: Compiling Voxlestein

  This should rather be "compiling voxlap". I remember fixing that very problem myself at one point, but seems I have lost the VS2008 version of my old sources. In any case I'm pretty sure there is some simple workaround to it. Or you could just download MASM8 and compile it manually

  Try changing 'qword' to 'dword'.

  Thanks Awesoken, that worked :)
  
  Now... to rip some code :)
