Hi All,

Bit of a cross-subject post, but please be patient - I think both NG's are
relevant...

I am *very* new to DJGPP, so I apologise if this has been covered before,
but I have never seen this topic in any of the doom NG's.

OK, you've played DooM; added PWads; created your own PWads; DeHacked the
exe...
and then what?
Edit the exe!
That's where I am coming from!

I use BooM 2.02 exe and so chose that as my base.

I've tracked down DJGPP and Allegro. Installed OK(?) and made my "Hello
World!" program
(I chose to use the RHIDE environment).

I am now trying to re-compile BooM! as a starting point, using the source
downloaded from
TeamTNT's site.

First, I am not a *real* programmer, but I have done a bit of coding in the
past.

I have created a new project (iboom) and added all the BooM files with ".c"
extensions.
Due to errors, I removed the following 3 files from the Project: bmp2c.c,
bin2c.c and
swantbls.c, none of which had the id copyright heading so I assumed they
were extras.

When attempting to compile I still get a number of errors (which I shall not
list unless
requested).
The first (and I thought simplest) is: "undefined reference to 'joy_b1'".
(joy_b2, joy_b3,
joy_x & joy_y follow).

I believe I have set-up by RHIDE paths correctly, but I feel this is where
my error lays.

Any help or suggestions gratefully received.

Regards

JohnN
