How to compile and execute Doom 1.10 source code


Hi,

I am using RedHat 7.3 (GNOME)

I downloaded the source code(files) of Doom 1.10.

I compiled the C files using the command in bash as :

gcc *.c

Upon executing the above command I got a few errors and warnings. I managed to debug the errors but not the warnings.

I then generated the object files using :

gcc -c *.c ( This created files with the .o extension )

After the object files were generated I located the entry point of the program and used
the following command below:

./i_main.o

However I am getting a message that binary files cannot be executed.

I tried using the Makefile present in the directory as follows:

./Makefile

But I am getting a large number of error messages.

Can anyone please tell me how to correctly compile and execute the source code of Doom 1.10. ?

Thankx
Sharath

Post the errors, that should help us get to the bottom of the problem.
Was there a readme file with the source code that told you to do the above steps?
