 If you haven't already read about, downloaded and played GWar, go and do so now. It's very small, so it won't delay you from programming very long. Besides, if I'm guessing correctly, you need a break and should play a game for a couple minutes. Go here and download it now. You're going to have to anyway if you want to play with the souce code, because you need the datafile. The source code can be downloaded here:

If you want to re-compile the GWar source, you're going to have to do five things. As usual, "alleg" has to be in the list of libraries to include. You're going to also have to add "ff" to that list. That "ff" library is a flicker-free library I wrote some time ago (shortly after SSP). Included in the source archive are libff.a and noflick.h (source is not included because it's not very good and needs work). The .a file needs to be copied into your djgpp/lib/ directory and noflick.h into your djgpp/include directory. Lastly, all the .c files included in the source archive have to be added to your project.
Further conversion tips can be found at the GWar Conversion Tips page.
