-------------------------------------------------------------------- DCK - DOOM Construction Kit Version 2.2 (386 Protected Mode) Code and design by Ben Morris / Zerius Development -------------------------------------------------------------------- BUG FIX RELEASE bmorris@islandnet.com -------------------------------------------------------------------- This version fixes (at least, in the situations I've tested) the AWFUL crashes that prior versions of DCK experienced frequently on some systems. The problem was simple: Borland's 32-bit DOS extensions have a serious problem with what is called "stack grow", a function of the run-time system. In some conditions, stack grow would not work properly (especially with stack-hungry functions like graphics routines) and an invalid portion of the stack would be accessed, causing a page fault. Surprisingly enough, Borland never even *mentioned* this to me. The bug fix came from the people at Metagraphics, who wrote the graphics routines for Borland's PowerPack system. Thanks, Metagraphics.. and sucks to you, Borland! :) - Ben PS: Just copy the contents of this archive into your DCK directory.
