After trying *with many MANY unsuccessfull attempts* to get build 17 to work with the Cygwin tools under win98, i decided to blow the dust off my copy of MSVC5 and use that instead. Problem solved, lots of little code changes here and there and my mud is taking shape.... Trouble is i cant get OLC working with it, as i cant use patchfiles to install it. And to be honest the prospects of sitting there writing zones in notepad makes me depressed beyond belief. There seems to be so many different patches/builds/versions of OLC about to be honest it confusing which one i should be using to get it working, so realy i have 2 questions. 1> Which version of Oasis should i be trying to get to work in the first place (the ftp site has about a million different kinds)? 2> When ive got the proper version, how the heck do i get it to run ? BTW, as i said, my computer is ANTI_GNU32 so please dont tell me to use the patch command included in that :-) Cheers Mates.
