I'm not really good with this stuff, but anyways:

If I wanted to modify SSB2 to customize a few points here and there, how exactly do I recompile it into the exe (if that's what I'm suppose to do)?

If your talking about "points" as in what you score in the game, well that has really nothing to do with ssb2, it's a file in your server directory (score.dat).
If that's what your really talking about, then you can give or remove points to players, by private messaging "*points 'number_here' " to the player you want to change, and you can use a negative number to take away points.
Or they best way to do it, if you have access to your sub game server, is to run SCOREMAN.exe, and in the scores window, open scores.dat, and the you can edit it through there.

If that's not what your talking about, then I don't know, sorry for your time...

If your talking about actually editing the billing server, then rewrite the files, with some type of compiler (I like "MS VC++.NET 2005 express edition"), and then once your done, you compile the files, and make the project. It will completely replace the .exe in your project folder, so make sure you back up all the files.

Yeah, the second one was what I was looking for. Thanks.
Is it possible to compile it through Dev-C++?

Yes. But if your intending to make a .NET application, you can rather download get what I recommend here, or you can manually put the header files of the .NET frame work in the include directory, of your DEV C++, but I've never tried that.

Okay, now here's the part I'm not good with: I open up a new project, select console application, add the .h & .cpp files (do I also add ssb2.dsp, ssb2.dsw, ssb2.vcproj & ssb2.sln ?)

Then I'm sure I'm missing a step(s) before compiling it, but I wouldn't know since I don't use it often enough

Sorry for sounding really stupid :/

SSB2 is not a .NET Application. I've heard that you can compile SSB2 in Dev-C++ but I haven't tried. I use Microsoft Visual Studio 6.0 when I edit my biller. All you really need to do is open the ssb2.dsw file to open the workspace, edit it, then compile it and the ssb2.exe should be in the debug folder.

I can't get visual studio either way, I still run windows 98 which is why I ask if anyone would know how to do it using Dev-C++. I'm terrible with compiling... Opening the ssb2.dsw gives me this:

Code: Show/Hide

Microsoft Developer Studio Workspace File, Format Version 6.00
# WARNING: DO NOT EDIT OR DELETE THIS WORKSPACE FILE!

###############################################################################

Project: "ssb2"=.\ssb2.dsp - Package Owner=<4>

So from here after it doesn't make sense to me.

That's because its a workspace file for Visual Studio 6.

On a completely unrelated note, please stop trying to log into Hyperspace using a non-Continuum/non-Chatnet client
