PxCreateControllerManager - Unresolved External Symbol

    Hi, I'm trying to get a character controller working, and this has been standing in my way for the last 5 hours, I was searching and found that adding

    #define PX_PHYSX_CHARACTER_STATIC_LIB

    would fix it for some people, but unfortunately it doesn't work for me, so I decided to ask, maybe someone can help me.

    mControllerManager = PxCreateControllerManager(Engine::PhysicsSystem::getSingleton().getWorld()->getPxPhysics()->getFoundation());

    The code above is how I'm trying to initialize the controller manager, and it throws a linker error.

    The libraries to which I link my project are the following:
    Foundation.lib
    PhysX3Common.lib
    PhysX3CharacterKinematic.lib
    PhysX3Cooking_x86.lib
    PhysX3_x86.lib
    LowLevel.lib
    GeomUtils.lib
    SceneQuery.lib
    SimulationController.lib
    PxTask.lib
    PhysX3Extensions.lib

    Is there anything I'm missing ?

    Assuming windows and visual C++

    Try adding it to the project settings under C/C++ -> Preprocessor: Preprocessor Definitions
    at the end of the list separated by a ;, like

    ;PX_PHYSX_CHARACTER_STATIC_LIB

    see if that works

    It didn't work on my project. I'm yet to track down why, but when I removed it in the samples, the exact same error popped up, so that's gotta be it, I just need to find out what exactly is causing it not to work for my project... Will report back with a solution.
    -- Update: --
    I tried everything I could, it didn't work, so I decided to write my own character controller.

    I had the same problem, but putting PX_PHYSX_CHARACTER_STATIC_LIB into C/C++ -> Preprocessor: Preprocessor Definitions solved it
