This article only applies to the DOS/QuickBasic 16-bit version. It is not relevant for the current 32/64 bit Windows/Linux/Mac/etc versions
You should be using the Windows or Linux versions.
However, if you have some specific need for a version of the OHRRPGCE that runs on real DOS (MS-DOS 6.22 or FreeDOS or DosBox), you can still use the Hasta-la-qb release. It will be missing any newer features that were added later.
Getting the Source[edit]
The best way to get the source code is with subversion. If for some reason, you can't install a subversion client on your computer, the next best thing is to download the Hasta-la-qb source code snapshot.
Compiling the Source[edit]
- Choosing which compiler to use
- Getting Quickbasic
- Compiling in Windows 9x
- Compiling in Windows XP
- Compiling in Real DOS
- Compiling in DOSBox
Submitting Improvements[edit]
No more releases are planned for the Hasta-la-qb branch, however, if you fix a bug, you are still welcome to submit it. If you want to continue serious development of the QuickBasic version of the OHRRPGCE, it might be best for you to fork a separate project.
