An *unfinished* (but well-working* RPG, that is a GREAT learning tool for aspiring game programmers who do not know a lot about C++. The game also has a pretty cool battle system.

This game is a great learning tool and it is really what got me where I am today in my programming experience. I suggest that everyone who is learning c++ download this code and mess with it and you will really LEARN!!!!

A simplification in the Arena.h file:
Instead of:
switch(slotchoice)
{
case 1:
file=fopen("save1.aes","rb");
fread(&your,sizeof...
make it:
char buf[32];
sprintf(buf,"save%i.aes");
/* then use 'buf' as the file name */
This reduces the amount of code.

Sorry, made an error. Here it is:
buf[32];
sprintf(buf,"save%i.aes",slotchoice);

Interesting Game, but I would not recommend using this as an example of good C++ code. The coding style used makes this code very difficult for beginners to read. And the use of all public data doesn't teach anyone about proper class design and implementation.. Wheres the encapsulation? Remember, when you write code you are writing it for other prgrammers, so use a consistent, professional style, one that helps your code tell its story...Don't be afraid of White Space....

Yeah thanks for the criticism guys, I love it, it helps me learn. And in response to the last poster, this was my first big project, and I have really learned a lot from it. And I have changed my coding style since then. Thanks.

When I tried to compile it with some changes it reported the following errors:
gcc: Compilation of header file requested
gcc: file path prefix `C:\DEV-C_~1\BIN\' never used

Hey, from the sounds of it, you are using Dev C++. Although I am not familiar with it, it looks like you are not including the header files with the project... Just my guess though.

It took me a little bit, but I got it to work with Dev C++. What I had to fix was in the msoftcon.cpp file. It's now working fine for me.

I'm getting 4 unresolved externals when I try to run it in MSVC++6. I am familiar with your work though from the NeHe's site, and am sure this is great code.

doesnt really look like real c++, more like a basic programmer that did some c++ work

I agree with the last comment. Also, whenever I try to save a game, the program crashes it gets as far as choosing the slot.

I don't seem to be having a problem with the program, so there are no errors to change my opinion on this.
to the coment 2 spaces up yes the game can get boreing after a while, but if you didn't notice it does say quote "An *unfinished*" meaning you can build off of this to make it to your likings.
I think this code is a good start to a text adventure.
