Code layout

DETHRACE

Game logic. According to the symbol dump, these files were originally stored in C:\DETHRACE\src.

• DETHRACE/common - all common logic
• DETHRACE/pc-dos - all platform-specific functions (DOS, in this case)
• DETHRACE/pd - platform-dependent generic headers.

All code here is kept as similar to how we think the original code might have been. Any changes required are implemented as hooks into harness.

BRSRC13

Graphics rendering library. BRender, originally stored in C:\BRSRC13.

• Stainless Software used their own build of BRender with unknown modifications.

All code here is kept as similar to how we think the original code might have been. Any changes required are implemented as hooks into harness.

S3

Audio library. No other information.

All code here is kept as similar to how we think the original code might have been. Any changes required are implemented as hooks into harness.

harness

• Provides functions that the original game logic calls to implement modern cross-platform support.
• SDL2 for windowing + input + networking, OpenGL for rendering, OpenAL for audio
