YaPB 2.51 Source Code Compile Help

[He@dShot]

Hello, everyone ! I am kind of new in bot coding; I have downloaded the YAPB 2.51 source code project. When I try to compile the "yapb.vcproj" file it says:
"-------------- Build: Debug Win32 in yapb ---------------

Running target pre-build steps
..\..\tool\buildup\release\buildup.exe yapb.rc
Execution of '..\..\tool\buildup\release\buildup.exe yapb.rc' in 'C:\Documents and Settings\Hans\Desktop\yapb_v251_src_w32\project' failed.
Nothing to be done."
When I try to compile the "yapb_9.vcproj" it gives me a lot of warnings and 1 error:
"..\include\core.h|159|error: invalid conversion from `int (*)()' to `void*'|"
I try to delete the lines that gave me the error and it compiled with warnings. When I load it in Metamod is says "bad load". Even without Metamod it says "can't get Dll Entry" or something like this...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. What can I use to compile the source code succesfully ?
2.Why is the size of the compiled "yapb.dll" so big (1.84 MB) compared to the release version that I got from this site ? Is it normal or am I using a wrong program ?

I am really trying to improove the BOT code to succesfully:
- use Shields like the original CS bot
- pick up dropped grenades like in CZ
- better communication system and many more...!

If anyone can help me I would be so gratefull...! Copyright remains to original author of YaPB !

how do you gonna improve it lol if you at least don't able to even compile it
for me it works fine without any problems (latest visual c++ installed)

p.s. size is big because it isn't compressed

Sorry for the delays

Not sure where did you get that source but latest version is @ http://svn.jeefo.spb.ru/. And it's compile right after checkout with MSVC 2008 (Express too)..

p.s. size is big because it isn't compressed

No, it's because by default debug builds contains debug symbols and other "not for the end user" stuff...

but anyway I compressed that dll to 328 kb using upx
