DOS ain't dead

In Facebook I accidentaly found a link to GitHub page for new 3D editor for DOS - Swife.
On its GitHub page are only sources but with OpenWatcom I prepared and uploaded the binary.
I have never worked with similar kind of software so I can't say whether the program is good or not. But it has definitely nice GUI.
However I found some problems - it works very good with CTmouse driver but with another driver (like MOUSE.COM) by Microsoft or even under Win98 the mouse cursor still slides up, without any user intervention which is very annoying.
Also it seems that program expects to be in direcotry C:\_SWIFE_
Anyway, this editor is still under development so these problems can be fixed in future.

This is the YapeSDL guy I linked recently. I believe his UI is "imgui" (or "Dear ImGui"), of which he also made a video.

Also see Immediate mode GUI.

The same guy who is developping the 3D modeler also works on paint program. It uses the same GUI which is nice but quite slow and memory hungry.
The GitHub page has only sources. I was able to compile it under OpenWatcom 1.4 and I uploaded the binary here
It works, the speed is on my Core2 duo 2,6GHz OK but I am afraid that on anything slower it would not be 100% fluent.
The author says that DJGPP builds are faster but I was not able to compile it with DJGPP as the compilation process raises many syntax errors.
I believe that I do not have the proper version of DJGPP so maybe someone with newer DJGPP (newer GCC) will be able to compile it.
I have 4.1.

I contacted the author and he sent me the DJGPP binary so I added in into archive and reuploaded
I can confirm that the DJGPP build is faster. (with good DPMI server)
