CydandClaude Opus 4.8 8d18ce0ee4 Wire up remaining DirectX SDK paths; build now succeeds
Verified full build with VC++ 2008 Express SP1 + Windows SDK v6.0A + DirectX
SDK (June 2010): 4 Projects succeeded, 0 failed (Release|Win32). Outputs:
Release\rpl4opt.exe, Release\RPL4TOOL.exe, lib\Munga_L4.lib, lib\DivLoader.lib.

Two projects referenced DirectX but were never repointed at $(DXSDK_DIR)
(they had no hardcoded path to replace earlier):

- DivLoader.vcproj: add "$(DXSDK_DIR)Include" to both compiler configs
  (was failing on D3DX9.h).
- RPL4TOOL.vcproj / RPL4TOOL VS2008.vcproj: add "$(DXSDK_DIR)Lib\x86" to the
  linker search path (was failing with LNK1181 on dinput8.lib).

.gitignore: ignore the build-output static libs that land in lib/
(Munga_L4.lib, DivLoader.lib); the dependency libs OpenAL32.lib and
libsndfile-1.lib stay tracked.

BUILD.md / docs/BUILD-NOTES.md: record the verified build, the CLI recipe,
and the DXSDK_DIR stale-environment gotcha.

CydandClaude Opus 4.8 f849415c02 Remove ATL dependency so VC++ Express can build
The Express editions of Visual C++ ship without ATL. The only ATL usage was
in MUNGA_L4/L4APP.cpp (atlbase.h/atlconv.h + USES_CONVERSION/W2A macros, all
in that one file) for wide-to-ANSI conversion of command-line arguments.

- Replace the ATL includes with a self-contained L4WideToAnsi helper (a
  WideCharToMultiByte wrapper) and local USES_CONVERSION/W2A macros that
  reproduce ATL's W2A semantics. All call sites consume the result immediately
  (stricmp / CString assignment / atoi / atol), so behaviour is unchanged.
- Set UseOfATL="0" in Munga_L4.vcproj, RP_L4.vcproj and their VS2008 variants.
- Document the Express build path and the confirmed June 2010 DirectX SDK in
  BUILD.md (new section 6) and docs/BUILD-NOTES.md.

CydandClaude Opus 4.8 2229f154d1 Clean solution, un-hardcode DirectX SDK path, add build docs
- WinTesla.sln: remove 6 dangling project references (BT410_L4, TextureExp,
  MeshExp, SphereExp, DetailExp, MatReplaceExp) that are not present in the
  repo, plus their config entries. Solution now builds the 4 present projects:
  Munga_L4, RP_L4, RPL4TOOL, DivLoader.
- Munga_L4.vcproj / RP_L4.vcproj: replace hardcoded
  "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft DirectX SDK (March 2009)\" include/lib
  paths with the installer-provided $(DXSDK_DIR) variable, matching the
  existing VS2008 project variants.
- Add BUILD.md (toolchain/SDK requirements and build steps) and
  docs/BUILD-NOTES.md (findings, cleanup history, orphaned files).
- .gitignore: ignore *.sln.cache.
