What exactly in english would it take to compile rf in another compile besides the expensive compiler that is needed?

i believe you would have to remove every occurance of mfc code, and, unless you were to use borland c++ (and i dont know if the free version works with g3d), switch it to a different 3d engine. it really would likely be easier to do a complete re-write.

What exactly do you mean by mfc code? I don't get it!

I just compiled rf with 500 errors. It seems to be missing some header files, which appear to be mfc something another. What if i was able to get these files would it compile?

Crtdbg.h
afxwin.h
afxext.h
afxdisp.h
afxdtctl.h
afxcmn.h
dsound.h
evcode.h
strmif.h
control.h
uuids.h
ColDet.h
font.h
afxtempl.h

and all of these were linked from stdafx.h which was included with rfs source.

I also had a 400 and something errors from the file mmsystem.h would that be because it was missing the above headers?
