Ok... I'm one of the many people who want a make a game and cant get the game over Windows (32bit) - Back in 94\95 MS released Win95 (v4.0------) featuring a cool gui and a cool expansion for gaming, DX1 (Manipulative by Allegro) , due to protected modes libraries were made to make cool games... The inter net- Ah who the heck dosent love the internet... some dude with dial up or suckier kuz he to dang cheap to invest in to at least 56k or higher. i recomend 56k + for download time or if u 2 cheap... use what u got/have a party while u wait so noone can call u!!! or if u aint got no life... i strongly advise u to GET ONE!!! DJGPP\GCC\MAKE - DJGPP is a funny name for a devkit... but its the dude who ported GCC (Gnu Cross Compiler) and Make to the DOS OS.. either that or buy watcom 11 (back in them days u hadda pay for it) is the first part DJ and the GPP (GCC) app. DOS - Ahh!! a Operating System Daredevil a OS that looked crappy with most apps being in 256 graphics or less and ASCII based apps but (compared to Windows) is flawless. DOS, With the right tools and todays HD's,Sound Cards, Video Cards, and DVD Player Capability would have made it a OS Powerhouse... Games Like Duke Nukem 3D showed the world DOS and kick as much but as he did!. Linux was free but needs more space for a great game .if u own a windows (witch most of the world has) DOS is Easy. DLA(Drive Letter Access) and more. DOS Lit the tourch for Shareware and BBS Callings. FreeDOS (name is explanatory) is available to dual boot on any 95-XP OS Ahh the good stuff ALLEGRO- get it it's hard at first but you will get it... Any library you used that was based on allegro... is compatable with allegro.. GOT IT!!! get the source for Allegro and any other lib. (eg CGUI\DUMB\AllegroMP3\AllegroOGG) make sure u have the right ver of GCC and BinUTILS type make in the lib's folder recompile your source with GCC then TADA... your MS-DOS Game is now available... ERRORS: uronurown! |

Mate, whatever you're smoking/injecting/snorting/puffing, it seemed to kick just after your windows 32 spiel... -- |

I think you need to translate your post into english. I'm not a good linguist so I'm not sure what language you wrote that in, but I'm sure it's not english. If this is a tutorial you did not explain things thoroughly to teach me anything. It looks like you are talking to yourself in cliff notes and expecting us to understand your thoughts. Quote: ERRORS: uronurown! Tip: Try writing that line like this: Quote: If you have any errors, you're on your own! :-P Then may I suggest rewriting the other lines to be more like the example? ;-D [EDIT] =-----===-----===-----= |

Naw, it's english, he's just using a lot of 5th grader IM speech, which renders it very hard to read. STOP AND TAKE YOUR FREAKING TIME TO USE REAL ENGLISH! PEOPLE WILL ACTUALLY UNDERSTAND YOU! Sorry to be such a pessimist, but there's not many people left here who care about DOS anymore. And that's not much of a tutorial either. |

the walls of Other OS's... Windows 9x\ME and MS-DOS have the same base and archetecture this being x86, a thing i noticed on many linux\BSD apps... so here is a background on some tools i'll be describing... it's quick or long (depending on your attention span... so go get a pop or a glass a water. and read...
