Troubleshooting

This is the troubleshooting section. This section is for those of you that do not understand the instructions. Before you continue on with reading this section, I must remind you that when you read and follow the instructions for compiling on the main page, you must read and follow them exactly as they are written. If you fail to do this, I promise you that you will not compile the source code. But if you read and follow them exactly as they are written, I promise you that you will compile the source code perfectly.

Q: When I try to compile, it says it can't find TASM.exe, what is wrong?

A: When you open the project file "Wolf3d.prj," you must open the one that is located in "c:\tc\bin." (Step 7.)

Q: When I try to compile, it says it can't find "C0.obj" or any other of the source files, what is wrong?

A: You must make sure to specify the correct dirrectories before compile. (Step 9.)

Q: I clicked Compile | Build All, now my executables don't work right at all and the graphics are all messed up, now what do I do?

A: So, you decided to ignore my warnings and click on it anyway eh? Well congratulations, you just screwed up all the graphics and screens in your new executable. But wait! There is a solution. All you have to do is go back to the main page and repeat steps 3 and 4!

Q: I just finished compiling the source code, now where is my new executable?

A: It is in the directory that you indicated for "Output Directory." (Step 9.)
