Setting Up Your Working Directory

Before you start, you will need to create a working directory
and place the basic startup files in it as follows:

C:\> mkdir mygame
C:\> cd mygame
C:\mygame> pkunzip a:builder.zip dcworld.exe
C:\mygame> pkunzip a:player.zip dcplay.exe
C:\mygame> pkunzip a:graphics.zip *.7x5 *.mde1 
C:\mygame> pkunzip a:blocks.zip dcblock.exe2
C:\mygame> pkunzip a:scripts.zip dcc.exe
C:\mygame> pkunzip a:newgame.zip *.*
C:\mygame> dir

 Volume in drive C is DCSOFT-114

DCSOUNDS VFL    611793 10-29-92   1:20a ! Sound Blaster Sound Effects
    25 file(s) 2345678 bytes

You may want to delete the file DCSOUND.VFL if you don't have a
Sound Blaster card.  It is quite large and serves no purpose
unless you have the sound board.

You need to compile the scripts before you can use them in your
game, and the following command will compile all of them:

C:\mygame> for %i in (*.scr) do dcc %i

For every file with an extension of SCR, the script compiler
(DCC.EXE) will generate a file with an extension SCO (for script
object).

Instead of creating a brand new game, this document will use the
sample game that is included with DCGAMES.  The following
command will install the example script on top of the directory
we just created.

C:\mygame> pkunzip a:\example.zip -o
C:\mygame> pkunzip a:\examplsb.zip -o

The -o option tells the PKUNZIP program to overwrite any file
that already exists on the current directory.  The example game
includes copies of the script files, as well as some additional
ones that handle special cases in the game.  The EXAMPLSB file
contains the Sound Blaster specific files.
