Solution Overview

Projects	Generates	Notes:
AI	Artificial Intelligence subsystem	A lot of code unused since most traits had to be disabled.
AI Test	JP2_PC.exe	A standalone program allowing to test AI with graphics.
Audio	Audio.lib	The audio sub-system static library featuring the "real-time Foley".
Bug	Bugs.exe	A project concentrating all compiler errors. Since the team switched from VS4 to VS4.1 to VS4.2 to VS6.0 it was useful
CollisionEditor	CollisionEditor.exe	Sound effects editor to test the audio engine (very powerful at the time)
EntityDBase	EntityDBase.lib	Classes representing all objects in the game.
File	File.lib	Abstraction classes for File and Images used to build the Groff archives.
File Test	File	Test for the file and image abstractions.
Game	Game.lib	Glue, triggers, Player, Gun classes.
GeomDBase	GeomDBase.lib	The 3D representation (Geometry) of all objects defined in EntityDBase.
GroffBuild	GroffBuild.exe	The tool in charge of gathering all game assets (3D, sounds, maps) in one GOFF file.
GroffExp	GroffExp.dle	The DLL loaded by 3DS Max that export all data to GOFF sections. This was originally outsourced to another dev and is standalone.
GUIApp	GUIApp.exe	A wrapper around the game. The GUI allows changing the game values at runtime for testing. Like the console allowing to change the CVAR in Quake engines.
Loader	Loader.lib	The library loading GOFF assets to RAM.
Math	Math.lib	The math library (features a fInvSqrt that is not as good as Quake III's InvSqrt since it uses a lookup table but also uses Newton-Raphson).
Math Test	MathTest.exe	A few functions to test the speed of the math routines.
Physics	Physics.lib	The pelvis heavy, penalty force-based Physic engine library.
PhysicsTest	PhysicsTest.exe	A sandbox level where physic can be tested.
PipeLineTest	PipeLineTest.exe	Testbed for the rendering pipeline
Processor	Processor.dll	Uses CPUID to detect 8086, 80286, 28386 or a 80486, Pentium, K6-3and K7, Detect Floating Point Unit and CPU speed. Loaded at runtime by System project in order to set automatically details level (based on CPU Mhz).
QuantizerTool	QuantizerTool.exe	Aborted project. Does nothing.
Render3D	Render3D.lib	The hybrid software/Direct3D renderer.
ScreenRenderDWI	ScreenRenderDWI.lib	Pentium, PentiumPro and K6_3D specific code ASM optimized code for scanline and cache rendering. Direct3D code.
Std	Std.lib	Extension of STL. A horrible mess of specific containers of containers of set of hashmap. Arg.
System	System.lib	Contains scheduler, Virtual Memory. Thread control. SetupForSelfModifyingCode (via modifying the page tables associated with the application). Many things are not used.
trespass	trespass.exe	The game we played.
View	View.lib	Raster to window code. Blitter, DirectDraw, Direct3D, software palette viewers.
WaveTest	WaveTest.exe	Shell to test wave modeling.
WinShell	WinShell.lib	win32 windows creation and management library
