If someone could compile the newer swfote that would be even better! Thanks! :biggrin: https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/compiling-problem-4748/&p=23216#p23216 Wed, 25 Sep 2013 17:48:51 CDT SWFOTE FUSS nobody@example.com (zimzar) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/compiling-problem-4748/&p=23215#p23215 I'm almost completely newb to muds and unix...I am a windows xp sp3 user... I've managed to get smaugfuss running and playing with MUSHclient... I think it was precompiled so that was easy... I've successfully compiled swfotefuss14 with cygwin after many googles and a handful of hours but it doesnt load swr.exe like smaug loads its own server...it says cygwin1.dll is missing. From what I've googled it seems a little too complicated for me to make it work. If someone could compile it for me https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/compiling-problem-4748/&p=23215#p23215 Wed, 25 Sep 2013 17:46:24 CDT SWFOTE FUSS nobody@example.com (zimzar)
