Did anyone here tried to compile Vega Strike with Open Watcom ?
If so, how it ended (and how to properly setup VS project, etc) ?
If not, why ? Watcom has long history as a compiler for games, maybe it still have some advantage in speed optimization (at least, over MS's compiler) ?..

I thought VS gets compiled using GCC?

Only on linux and OSX mostly use the various M$ Visual Studio flavours on windows but not sure if any one has tried Open Watcom yet Turbo Beholder so no project file for it that i am aware of.so you are flying blind so to speak :wink:

Enjoy the Choice :)
