I just recently purchases Monkey Pro and prior to this I was using the free version.

The free version still runs my code fine using "Desktop Game". (MonkeyX77a)

However, my new version of Monkey gives the following output (MonkeyXPro77f)

"C:/MonkeyXPro77f/bin/transcc_winnt" -target=Desktop_Game -config=Debug -run "C:/Users/Ethan/Dropbox/LVM/Lava Monkey/LVM.monkey"

I tried deleting the build folder but it didn't help. Any ideas?

Thanks

The free version has the MinGW compiler as part of it's download. The Pro version doesn't have any compiler with it so you either have to use the MinGW that comes with the free version, download and install MinGW from the official site or use a version of Visual Studio 2010+.
Using a version of Visual Studio greater that 2010 does have it's own problems with the current Visual Studio Solution thats supplied; but they can be worked around if you know what you are doing.
One thing to note is that if you have both MinGW and Visual Studio in stalled and the configuration file points to MinGW, then Monkey will always use MinGW to compile. You can override this by including #GLFW_USE_MINGW=False in the source code.

Thank you for the explanation :)

I installed Visual Studio 2010, Visual Studio 2010 SP1, and deleted the build folder.
Everything is working now :D
