|    Trouble compiling Worldgroup 1.0    |
|    21 Aug 13 17:03:42    |
      From: blixel@gmail.com              I recently got the itch to tinker with the old MBBS stuff. I went through       v6.25 and was able to get it installed and working, and was able to install       Borland C++ 3.1, RUN286, and was able to compile everything without too much       difficulty.               I wanted to see if the same process would work for Worldgroup 1.01 and WG 2.0.       I updated the compiler to Borland C++ 4.52, but when I run makebbs, I get all       kinds of errors. To narrow down the problem, I took a look at makebbs.bat and       decided to run the        make statements one at a time so I could see the errors without having them       pass off the top of the screen.               What I'm getting is:               C:\WGSERV\SRC>make -fbbsrpt        MAKE Version 3.7 Copyright (c) 1987, 1994 Borland International               32loader runtime error: Unhandled exception               Exception 0E at 0197:00007A00 error code 00000007               ...then it goes on from there with a bunch of hex... followed by               The invalid instruction was executed at 00007A00               I think the problem may be that I don't have all the necessary paths in my       \BORLANDC\BIN\TURBOC.CFG and \BORLANDC\BIN\TLINK.CFG               My TURBOC.CFG is as follows:        -IM:\BC452\INCLUDE        -LM:\BC452\LIB        -I\BC452\INCLUDE;\RUN286\INC;\WGSERV\SRC        -L\BC452\LIB;\RUN286\BC4\LIB;\WGSERV\DLIB                      My TLINK.CFG is as follows:        -LM:\BC452\LIB        -L\BC452\LIB;\RUN286\BC4\LIB;\WGSERV\DLIB               Unfortunately I don't have any documentation for WG 1.01 or WG 2.0, so I'm not       sure what I'm missing. Can anyone help?              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
