Title: "Debug" box... Post by: JHGuitarFreak on February 15, 2006, 11:20:10 pm I've noticed that some peoples compiled exe's have no "debug" box where all the data is displayed while playing the game, and i was wondering, how would i get rid of that box with VS 2003?
this is only for personal use so i could play the the game without 2 windows. Title: Re: "Debug" box... Post by: HalfShadow on February 15, 2006, 11:23:47 pm Just go full-screen. If you can't see it, it's practically the same as it not being there, right?
Title: Re: "Debug" box... Post by: JHGuitarFreak on February 16, 2006, 07:54:12 am ummm, no, i want it totally gone
i dont really need it anyways Title: Re: "Debug" box... and Original source? Post by: JHGuitarFreak on February 16, 2006, 01:47:34 pm and another question, where can i find the source code for version 0.00 of UQM?
or where can i find the original source before it was ported? that would be something i would love to have a look at Title: Re: "Debug" box...

You need to link with /subsystem:windows instead of /subsystem:console. In VS 2005 it's under Configuration Properties -> Linker -> System -> SubSystem. Title: Re: "Debug" box... and Original source?

I'm not sure if you will be able to find the "original" code, if by that you mean the complete source code to the 3D0 version. As far as I know, the code that TFB released had been 'partially ported' already... I assume that they removed most of the proprietary 3D0 code although I may be wrong.or where can i find the original source before it was ported? that would be something i would love to have a look at Title: Re: "Debug" box...

Found it and it worked, thanks man Title: Re: "Debug" box... and Original source?

As far as I know, the code that TFB released had been 'partially ported' already... I assume that they removed most of the proprietary 3D0 code although I may be wrong. Mostly correct. We had the "stripped" code available to us, but mainly for reference. Chris Nelson put the first (purely OpenGL) backend in and stripped out the "3DO-specific, causes things to neither compile nor run" parts. Among other things, the code used a huge mess of heinous preprocessor directives so that it would compile on various breeds of non-standard C compilers -- after all, at this point ANSI C itself was only two or three years old, and the compilers people were using tended to be at weird half-way points between it and K&R C. (IIRC, the original PC SC2 used Watcom's C compiler, since it was using DOS4GW.) Title: Re: "Debug" box... Post by: JHGuitarFreak on February 18, 2006, 09:05:23 am well is there anyway i could get the code that TFB handed over?
I've been wanting to look at it ever since i started learning C. Title: Re: "Debug" box... and Original source?

PC SC2 doesn't come with DOS4GW, it runs on a 286 (albeit slowly) and contains the following string:Quote MS Run-Time Library - Copyright (c) 1990, Microsoft Corp Looks like Microsoft C to me.Most importantly, getting SC2 to run properly wouldn't require such a lot of messing around with DOS memory configuration if it didn't require such a lot of conventional memory, while DOS4GW can use practically all RAM through protected mode. |
