Editing Maelstrom source code
 

I am trying to edit the source code to the linux game maelstrom so that I have like 3000 lives and unlimited shield...

After I find the correct file and figure out how to edit it....... I want to know how to compile the source code so I can run it. can someone tell me how to compile source code in linux?

gcc <filename.c> -o filename

I do beleive

hmm... gcc doesnt seem to be a command.

try "man gcc"

If gcc is not a command, then you've to install gcc :)

yes! of course! I am using SuSE 9.0

Could you tell me more about gcc.. what is it?

It's a c compiler. There should be available within your CD's. I've never used Suse, but maybe you could install it through YaST?

oh.... the linux compiler.. good good.. I am learning.

dude this forums ROCKS my SOCKS!

you guys are awesome.

did it work? Congratulations :D

I didnt try it yet. I am not at home.... BUT I was saying that this forums is awesome cause I got like 10 replies in about 5 minutes.

ghehe. You are in trouble now. I felt like this when I joined here, about one year ago, and I practically live here ;) lol. Here, some reading for ya:

http://gcc.gnu.org/

still, install gcc from your CD's. Compiling the compiler is the worst experience I have ever had, pretty much as difficult to know which one came first: the chicken or the egg? :)

Hello,

Sorry to bring this thread back from the dead, but where did you get the source code from? I can't seem to find it...
