Since the DLLs are completely broken, here's a build that doesn't use them. Bump mapping and antialiased text are gone, for the sake of stability.
I also noticed that the security cameras still use the FE_RENDER and FE_ZRENDER flags, which crashes the game on Windows 8 and 10.
Since the fastlibs aren't being used, I compiled it on Blitz3D v1.108c instead of v1.106. It has bugfixes relating to the newer versions of Windows.
I also killed SCP-1074 for good.

Extract this in your game folder, should be easy enough to do.

amazing

That's really useful
I did it in the NTF mod with FastText already (you could disable/enable it) but yeah, FastExt isn't used too much in SCP:CB anyway, so I guess the removal might be more of an improvement rather than a loss (only the bump mapping will be lost, but that isn't that much of a big detail after all).

I love you now I be finally going to be able to put has in the daytime my mod thank you ;)

I think that the bump mapping should be kept though, since it adds to the detail.

It may be possible to modify Blitz3D itself to add the bump mapping as part of the engine, rather than using the memory hacks FastExt uses. Unfortunately DirectX 7 is a huge mess when it comes to basic blending and I can't find any good documentation out there, so I won't be doing that.

Edit:
I uploaded a new build. I found a workaround to a font loading bug, fixed SCP-372's document and added the option to pick a lower resolution when using "Fake fullscreen" mode (it upscales or downscales the render to fit the whole screen).

Is there any explanation for the game spazzing out when playing in fullscreen? I haven't seen much about it lately.

Who knows what caused it, but apparently it's fixed now.

I updated the build, now gamma works in windowed mode. The solution I used isn't perfect (it's not actual gamma correction but instead a sprite with additive/multiplicative blending is used), but it looks close enough to the real thing IMO.

Cool
You still seem to do some great stuff for SCP:CB again
We want to implement all of this in 1.3.1 (along with other bugfixes).

I tried this and first of all, there is in fact no difference between bump mapping and no bump mapping. (Disregard my earlier posts, I simply was used to see bumpmapping)
Second, the font looks quite strange though, in comparison to earlier. (Is it because FastText is gone?)
