    Well, Rick Parish ported over Renegade to Win32, and it boots, loads, 
runs, etc.   But there are still some bugs.   Being I don't run anything Win32
(doors, etc), I will never use this build.   

The bugs I noticed so far in the Win32 build is :

1.  Status bar only displays on key press and is not static as it should be.

2.  File/Msg areas just scroll through and don't pause .. actually anything 
that had a page break doesn't prompt for a keypress to continue.


Door32.sys support has been in the code for years, as we had a mock way of 
running door32 doors via the dos based system back in 2004, but it ate memory 
a shit ton and really wasn't that great, but worked.  Command key if D3 is I 
remember correctly for the drop file.


Have no tried file transfers nor running a door via Door32 on the Win32 build.
Anyone wanna take a crack at it, visit the Github source page and join in the
coding.


My only requirment is that the build still runs and compile in DOS exe's as 
well.
