SDL :)

[Kryx]

I just noticed the SDL.DLL in the Dominions 2 demo directory That's pretty cool, I am a *very* newbie C++ programmer (I did it some a long time ago and got back into it recently) and have messed with SDL a tiny bit.

You don't have to answer this, but what IDE/Compiler do you recommend/use? I've mostly been puttering around with Dev C++(minigw?) and wondered what you used for Dominions.

Dominions 2 rules, I haven't bought it just yet but I will order it as soon as I can. I've talked a friend into ordering already

Could you do us a favor and take a look at

There is an old map generator for Dom1 that has been upgraded but so far its only available in raw C source code for linux. Would be nice to get a working Windows compile.

H'm. Mayhaps I'll take a look at this 'pon the morrow. Mind you, I promise nothing, as I currently have two term projects (...and two non-term projects, and grading work, and topic selection for another term project and my thesis...) standing between myself and any guiltless free time. But I will at least look it over and try to gauge the difficult of doing a port.

For windows the standard microsoft c compiler is used (visual c). It has a good development environment, but it also manages to compile stuff wrongly all too often.
