>Quake II??? > >(Did id software decide to drop DJGPP? Ack!) Yes they did. They decided to go Win32 exclusive, so started using a Win32 compiler instead. All quite simple really. I don't think they have time or can be bothered with trying to get the MicroSoft DirectDraw & all that working in RSXDJNT or whatever. And it's not as though they're short of cash . . . -Thomas
