NMAKE : fatal error U1073: don't know how to make 'src/modules/.c'
Stop.
why?!?

Erm, i've never used the maintanence utility from MS, but i'mma guess here that if your trying to compile something for linux on windows, its just not gonna work, ya know, especially since that was trying to use the linux file format, or tree directory path, which isn't going to work on windows, since it needs a drive prefix at the beginning, such as C:\ or G:\, etc etc.

Actually, nbishop, it should work, the unreal windows source is included with the unreal nix source.

What is the command you used to start the compile?

[SliderMan]

like in the tutorial
nmake -f makefile.win32 custommodule MODULEFILE=<name>
thanks for helping me...

You need to follow the instrustions in doc/compiling_win32.txt and compile Unreal before you compile modules. There are also instructions in there for modules too.

cl /MD /Zi /J /I ./INCLUDE /Fosrc/ /nologo /D FD_SETSIZE=16384 /
D NOSPOOF=1 /c /c SRC/SUPPORT.c
SUPPORT.c
SRC/SUPPORT.c(2371) : error C2065: 'WSASYSCALLFAILURE' : undeclared identifier

f indirection from 'unsigned char [20]'
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'cl' : return code '0x2'

argh.. I keep moving this back and forth ('Unreal 3.2 Support', 'Unreal 3.2 Modules').

Use the search and (find&)read some stuff on win32 compiling here on the forum. (note especially talk about: PSDK, how you start the shell etc...)
If that didn't help, post a new topic.
