I have updated my debugger tool for DBC. I know, nobody uses it anyway because its a rather complex concept. Basically is just locates the #include file that the error is in because DBC gets it wrong and Dark Edit does not help. Maybe TDK's fixes that, but I don't know. I haven't tested his new one.

But, my debugger has a cool extra feature. It will compile (actually DB will do that) your project and let you pick the Icon
you wish to use for your app. All you need is MSPaint to make a
32x32 bitmap (16 color only) and add one line of code to your app ... #ICON "youricon.bmp" and its done.

Its a small DL available for free. Its a little complicated though.

just added another feature
I added a "Globals" check box.
If you check this, you can place your dims inside an #include file.
There are still considerations, such as the DBC compiler will
report errors if you try to access the dims outside of the
#include file. But, this is very helpfull in creating a truely
reusable code module.


SEE Docs for more information.

I don't use #includes but if I decide to, or I start teaching a game making class, then this tool will come in handy.

Thank you for sharing it.

I'm unique, just like everybody else.
