ACK-3D Library
Source code for the latest version of the ACK-3D library (at least, at the time of publishing of
Lary Myer's book, "Amazing 3-D Games Adventure Set" in 1995) back-ported to DOS. Windows
compatibility has not been kept. A Watcom makefile has been added, replacing a build script for
Lary's custom MK.EXE build tool.
Requirements
To build, you will need Watcom C++ and Borland TASM. I used Watcom C++ 10.0a and Borland TASM 4.0, but you should be able to build with newer versions (maybe even slightly older versions too).
Building
Within this directory, run
> wmake
This will build using the included makefile using a debug build settings.
To build using a release configuration:
> wmake target_config=release
In either case, you should get an output artifact ACKLIB.LIB on successful build.
Compiler Settings Note
Of particular note is that /zp1 is specified for both debug and release builds. This matches
Lary's original build scripts but is also a requirement as some things in the code make
assumptions that might not hold true for larger alignment settings (e.g. /zp4). Change this
at your own risk!
