|
|
|
||
|
|
Here are some instructions on compiling circlemud using Borland C++ 5.01.
|
||
|
|
These instructions will not work using Turbo C++, or the 4.0 versions of
|
||
|
|
Borland C++ as those two products were geared twoards DOS and Windows 3.xx.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It will most likely work with versions 5.00, 5.02, and 5.5 of the Borland
|
||
|
|
C++ compilers.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Boot up your Windows 95 machine.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Unzip your CircleMUD package.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Goto a DOS prompt, and change to the circle \src directory.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
(Type) rename conf.h.win conf.h (Enter)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
** BORLAND 5.5 **
|
||
|
|
If you are using Borland C++ 5.5, a couple of extra changes need to be
|
||
|
|
made at this time. First you have to make sure the bin directory of the
|
||
|
|
tools is in your path. You can add the following line to your autoexec.bat
|
||
|
|
to have it automatically added to your path or you can type it at a DOS
|
||
|
|
prompt:
|
||
|
|
path = %path%;c:\borland\bcc55\bin
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
(Type) make -fmakefile.bcc55 (Enter)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
** BORLAND 5.1 **
|
||
|
|
(Type) make -fmakefile.bcc (Enter)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
** End Version Specifics **
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Something to note here is that these makefile
|
||
|
|
assume that you have installed Borland C++ 5.x
|
||
|
|
to the C: drive. If you have installed it to
|
||
|
|
another drive you will have to open up the correct
|
||
|
|
Makefile in a text editor and find and replace
|
||
|
|
all C:\ references to the drive letter it has
|
||
|
|
been installed to.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
(Type) move circle.exe ..\ (Enter)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
(Type) cd .. (Enter)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
(Type) circle (Enter)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The game should start loading the zones and database. You will no longer be
|
||
|
|
able to type in this DOS box.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Click on START and then on RUN.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
(Type) telnet localhost 4000 (Enter)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The first one to logon becomes the Implentor.
|
||
|
|
Also remember that you are using Windows95's
|
||
|
|
built-in telnet program which is very basic.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Pat yourself on the back.
