Building from Source

Start up your DOS console, go to the engine’s folder. You should have a tpc.exe (Turbo Pascal Compile executable) in your %PATH%.

Compile the tests:

Automated (recommended):

cd TESTS
CBMPTEST.BAT    # BMP image loader test
CVGATEST.BAT    # VGA graphics test
CSNDTEST.BAT    # Sound bank test
CSPRTEST.BAT    # Sprite animation test
CTMXTEST.BAT    # TMX tilemap scrolling test
CXMLTEST.BAT    # XML parser test

If you run CTMXTEST for example, you should have a TMXTEST.EXE at the end.

Manual compilation:

cd UNITS
tpc VGA.PAS
tpc PCX.PAS
tpc SBDSP.PAS
# ... compile other units

cd ..\TESTS
tpc -U..\UNITS VGATEST.PAS
