Please Help: Which C compiler to compile Zork src
April 26, 2002 04:25 AM
The C++ compiler I useually use (Bloodshed DevC++) won''t compile the game, so I thought I''d try a decent C compiler. Does anyone know of one that will compile the Zork source code found on this website ?
Thanks

The problem with that source code is that it is really old. A lot of the rules have changed since then which is probably your cause for grief. What you can try is shut off the ++ part of your compiler and make it compile C code instead of C++.

Hey!
I compiled Zork with Mingw32 which is same GCC port that DevC++ IDE uses and it worked fine for me.
It is ANSI C so make sure you compile it with C compiler and
you also have to add #DEFINE TEXTFILE to dinit.c file.
Something like mine where is the path to dtextc.dat file.

dinit.c....#else /* ! unix *///line 29#define TEXTFILE "d:\zorksrc\dtextc.dat" //add this
