I can't seem to get this to properly compile. I used the mounted version of TURBO C++ and after tinkering with directory setup in the compiler I did finally get an EXE to compile... It will not load properly.

I know that with Wolf3D the way the graphics are compiled caused issues. If anyone can give some information on this it would be helpful.
