call somefunction.subfunction
Thus skipping some of the instructions in somefunction instead of having to write a duplicate function without them.

somefunction:
[some instructions here]
ret

otherfunction:
[some instructions here]
jp somefunction

Thus going directly from otherfunction to somefunction, which saves an instruction (don't need to do 'ret' after otherfunction) and some stack space (don't need to store the address it came from).

  void foo() // somefunction
  {
    //some work part1
    bar();
  }

  void bar() // .subfunction
  {
    //some work part2
  }

  // global variables to simulate registers

You need to install the game on an 9x environment, then copy the whole installation directory to the XP one. Replace the existing dll file with the new one and launch the game.

Cellar Dweller: What is snprintf()? And why do you recommend it over tried-and-true sprintf()? my MSDN searches came up with nothing, and it doesn't seem to be part of stdio (didn't work when I tried to compile it). I'm of the impression that "if it ain't broke, don't fix it"... and sprintf certainly isn't broke.
