RE: Windows 2000 users

[Martin Bertolino <martinbertolino@yahoo.com>]

I have finished building all the projects described in
the README file in plt/src/worksp under Windows 2000
Professional. I'm still having some problems building
MysterX, but it is mostly paths and the fact that I'm
missing some files from the Platform SDK. I will try
to change the MysterX makefiles to use relative paths
rather than absolute so it can be built without path
hacking.

I have done some minimal testing and things seem to
work ok. I got the games to run under MrEd and
DrScheme. If someone can direct me in what other
things I should test, or what automated tests I can
run, I'll be willing to post the results.

I created a makefile (attached) to be used with nmake
that can be run from plt/src/worksp. It assumes
building with DeveloperStudio 6, and that the tools
are in the path. It works ok if the -a flag is
specified (it has been a while since I created
makefiles so I have some target/dependency problems).
I will eventually integrate the building of MysterX
too.

I hope this helps

Martin
