Use a VM to try running it on Linux or Win. Ideally, if it is C, I would go with Linux.
The best way I would get started is by trying something as simple as making my player move twice as fast as all the rest.
It sounds simple in theory, but it is complex and a great way to break things while getting your feet wet.
If you can read the code and understand what each piece does, it isn't very tough to make mods. If you find it confusing, coding weird things and watching it break is a good way to experiment.
- sdegutis 13y agoI figured the early Doom stuff would compile best on some kind of linux, but the readme for the Quake stuff looks like it's talking about Visual Studio which is what started worrying me.
