So you want to program DOS games? Steps inside...

Post by kronoman »

How could I share links to my MS DOS games with source code? Every time I want to put a link or an image, the forum won't let me. I have enough source code to show and teach how to program MS DOS games.

I gather this should be your current website?

You already have five posts, so I think you should be able to post links right now.

This is all spam prevention policy, sorry.

And maybe someone can advise where to start with VESA-modes programming. VGA is good, but I would prefer 640x480.
you think in the right direction, my friend!

if you succeed with VESA-modes programming - the game development ideas will come later

i remember when approx 20-25 years ago i programmed with Borland C/Pascal and i implemented every time assembler code in my programs when i needed to activate VESA-modes or to transfer big amount of data quickly

so i think a good knowledge of 16-bit Assembler will help you in dos programming
