For example for the 'doscyber' demonstration type C:\RWDOS\DEMO\SAMPLE>cd doscyber C:\RWDOS\DEMO\SAMPLE\DOSCYBER>cd src C:\RWDOS\DEMO\SAMPLE\DOSCYBER\SRC> Once in the source directory you will find a '.mak' file which can be used with the watcom 'wmake' utility. To build the execuatble type wmake /f .mak For example to build the doscyber executable type C:\RWDOS\DEMO\SAMPLE\DOSCYBER\SRC>wmake /f doscyber.mak The demonstration executable doscyber.exe will be created if this functions correctly. The demonstration built will use the fixed point, register passing library. To use another RenderWare v1.4 library you may change the flags at the start of the makefile.
