Ed,

The library functions occupy 0x80000000 through 0x808FFFFF (I think).
You could find some functions you're not using and overwrite them with
your own data.

To find out the exact address of each function use the "nm.exe"
utility:

  nm main

I find it useful to pipe it through "sort" so that everything is 
sorted by address.  Also redirect output to a file so you can read it 
more easily:

  nm main | sort > nm.out

I have a little blurb about all this on my website.  Click on 
"NM.EXE" in the left frame.  It's under the "Tech" heading.

A word of warning though.  I have tried this.  I attempted to reuse
some of the 3D drawing functions since my game is 2D only.  This 
didn't work for some reason and I never spent time figuring out why.

Scott
