Help building Poket Quake in eVC4

Hi, I'm new to ppc in general, and development specifically.

I've tried using Pocket Quake on my iPaq hx4700 and encounter the white screen issue several other people have mentioned, however I found that when I've tried to implement the fix in source with eVC4 that has been detailed in the Pocket Quake forums, I was unable to do a build on the source.

It seems to be looking for the winver.h include, but for some reason with the Pocket Quake project I am unable to select Pocket PC 2003 as my build platform, which generally clears up any build problems I have (the project only seems to want to compile for sh platforms?).

I've been looking around for information regards developing for PPC platforms, but there doesn't seem to be a great deal about, so any information / help anyone can offer would be greatly appreciated.

I've been unable to add the ARM targets to an eVC3 workspace loaded in eVC4... but it seems that if you load the eVC3 project into an eVC4 workspace - then you can add the target.

Thanks Dan, the version of gx.h supplied with the source fixed that problem nicely.

Hopefully I'm down to my last obstacle, when compiling now it complains that it can't find "PocketQuake.res".

This file exists in the "PocketQuake/ARMV4Dbg", but I can't find a way to tell eVC4 this.

If anyone knows how to solve this one I'll be very happy!

On side note, most of my experience is with Borland development environments, so far I havn't found any conversions of the headers and libs that work with BC++ or Delphi, does any one know if there has been a set converted to work with the Borland environments? I suspect that VCL based environments would not necessarily be the best to work with PPC given the desire for a small memory footprint?
