Okay, as you might be able to tell so far from the topic title is that I need help getting crystal space to work.  As you may or may not be able to tell from past experiences, all i see from the download that I got is a bunch of unreadable files.  Now, i understand that you have to compile them, but i can't quite figure out how axactly.  I am using the Pesudue Stable Version of Crystal Space and for the compiler, I downloaded the Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition but I don't know how to get started.  Please don't make fun of me too bad for not getting it, and I don't know C++ yet, but I will learn with Crystal Space.  Thanks in advance to anyone who is willing to answer my question.
