Is this due to DirectX issues?  Are you using features specific to DirectX 6
or higher? (DirectX 7.0 is supported on 2k, right?)

I'd likely be working in NT 4.0.

You need to use mingw32.  I needed to stay away from using cygwin1.dll for
licensing
reasons.  However, the snapshot is really old at this point.  I have changed it
alot,
and added gii support, which I am debugging.  There are some things to be done.

- I have to fix the 8-bit support.
- Occasional trapping during initialization.
- Verify keyboard mapping...

I also need to create an NT version.  The current version will only run on
win95/98/2K.

Win32 port.

1999-12-20 Thread Jeff Muller

What's the current status of the win32 port?  I tried to build from a
snapshot a week or so ago and I ran into some problems.  I was wondering if
it was because it (the win32 port) was broken or because I was using
cygwin32 where I should have been using mingw32.

If it is in fact broken or incomplete, what remains to be done?
