What would you like to help with?

Coding for both languages or other thing that you need.

Can you be more specific? What C coding experience do you have? What do you enjoy working on? Can I see programs you've written previously? Do you know assembly?

Emphatic level fix.

I can read and understand the code and know what it dows but i'm not sure if I can write a entire program in asm. And i don't know hot to define this level, cause asm is difficult to compare with other languages....

Let me rephrase the main question:

Can you port complex x86 assembly to C ?
To detail a bit more...
- most functions/macros aren't commented
- there's a lot of function pointer arrays (really easy to handle in ASM...)
- data alignments are extensively used to clear/copy several vars at once
- there's some MMX stuff in as well

Is that only used in the DOS port or in all ports?

Used as long as 'Enable MMX' is checked in Config->Options. Given, of course, that your CPU can do MMX.

Well, i´ll realy need your help with this "uncommented macros", but in the rest i think i can handle. I think if we work like a team it wouldn´t be so traumatic. lol

Well, i will do like that i will code a window using c++ and call all the asm funcions, only to see how it´s would work. As soon as i finished i will create a post and put the code avaliable.

Thankx
