Why not? I'm pretty sure you can

I can't even compile the examples with that compiler (I didn't use their makefile and stuff because if I can't write my own makefiles/bats then I can't even compile my own stuff). I get 2k exe's that illegal op. on running.

you have to use VC++, which is $1000 to buy. gl finding a good dl

EDIT: i didnt think you could with borland but sos knows it all

(not)

1000? I think not.

Im sure its possible to compile with most of the other C++ compilers, but no one has taken the time to really try, as most have vc++.

Post subject:

lol, maybe 1000 is a slight exaggeration

, but it would be easier to use vc++ than to try to figure out how to do it with some other program

What about the people with 56k's?
Or people that don't commit "terrorist activities"?

Yes, that is exactly what he means.

there is only a pathetically minute compiler dirrefernce between VC++ and any other standard conforming compiler. Its just that VC++ has got a hugh IDE that makes it all a snap. Thats what you do (or dont) shell out the money for. Youre going to have to compile the plugin and make sure that it links it all together as a dll correctly. That could take some skill. Best advice: look at the docu. Its very possible, but a DOS window compiler ain't gonna hold your hand...

Aargh! Hard copy evidence for the law..

BTW what libraries and stuff do you need to compile a merv plugin? Like MFC or any other acronyms you can come up with but are never included with free compilers (I haven't given up yet!).

Edit: typo

ExplodyThingy: Think you could mail one to me? If you can contact me via the ssfourms or these boards, or PM me in subspace.
