Step 0) Assumptions:
The first assumption is that you have Borland Pascal installed in Z:\BP.
If you don't, you'll have to update the BUILDBP.CMD file
The second assumption is that you have Virtual Pascal installed in Z:\vp21.
If you don't, you'll have to update the BUILDVP.CMD file
*NOTE* The BUILD*.CMD files will copy a BPC.CFG or VPC.CFG into the relevant bin directory, meaning
if you have cusomized the .CFG file in the bin directory, it will be lost. Make a backup!
Step 1) Create directories to hold everything:
Z:\RENEGADE
Z:\Programming\RENEGADE
Z:\Programming\RENEGADE\EXE\BP
Z:\Programming\RENEGADE\EXE\VP
If you don't have a Z: drive, you can use SUBST or map a network drive to fake one
You can also put the files in an alternate location if you want, you'll just have to update the BUILD*.CMD scripts
Step 2) Get the source
Check out the GIT contents into Z:\Programming\RENEGADE
Step 3) Edit Z:\vp21\source\rtl\vpsysw32.pas
For some reason the cursor position isn't always updated in the background thread in the Win32 version. I'm guessing
it's a race condition with the CurXPos and CurYPos variables, so the thread doesn't think an update is needed when
one really is. So I've updated my copy of CursorThreadFunc to take the return value of the SemWaitEvent() call into
account, so the update will also happen if the event is signaled. Can't think of a reason why they wouldn't have done
this in the first place. Here's the entire function to copy/paste into place:
function CursorThreadFunc(P: Pointer): Longint;
var
LastX, LastY: Longint;
begin
LastX := -1;
LastY := -1;
repeat
if SemWaitEvent(semCursor, 300) or (CurXPos <> LastX) or (CurYPos <> LastY) then
begin
DoSetCursorPosition;
LastX := CurXPos;
LastY := CurYPos;
end;
until tidCursor = -2;
tidCursor := -1;
end;
Step 4) Build new EXEs
Run BUILDBP.CMD to build the DOS EXEs and have them copied to Z:\RENEGADE
Run BUILDVP.CMD to build the WIN32 EXEs and have them copied to Z:\RENEGADE
