Current status of building a new NGE_Nibbles binary: 1) <http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/micro/pc-stuff/freedos/files/repositories/1.3/games/nge_nibb.zip> is crap for compiling on Windows XP, because of the uppercase and short filenames. Using "set lfn=n" helps a little, but then ld.exe doesn't find libstdcxx, because that's nice chars. Now using 2) Source code doesn't compile out-of-the-box. Has missing #include directives and "garbage" after "#endif"s. 3) Created binary doesn't work as expected. The snake already dies directly w/o pressing a single key or after a cursor key has been pressed. Original binary just works fine. 4) Applied Eric's patch, but it didn't notice a difference in speed of NGE_Nibbles in DOSBox. (The original already run fine.) As the original source code doesn't build unmodified, I doubt the already released binary has been build from that source code (version). I'm currently not sure, if I will invest more time in NGE_Nibbles. Anyway, I uploaded some Nibbles.exe for testing: 1) Just modified to make it build with GXX 4.3.2: https://www.bttr-software.de/tmp/nge_nibbles/Nibbles_exe.zip 2) Eric's patch applied: https://www.bttr-software.de/tmp/nge_nibbles/Nibbles_exe2.zip 3) Rebuild of 2) with GXX 3.4.4: https://www.bttr-software.de/tmp/nge_nibbles/Nibbles_exe3.zip Just copy over to your existing NGE_Nibbles installation and report your results.
