I still use an extremely old and sluggish Celeron laptop for coding. In it, I still use MASM32 and the MSVC++ 2003 Toolkit for compiling, and a really old version of Code::Blocks as an IDE. There's no VC workspace & project files for my engine anymore, all I'm doing is for Code::Blocks.
I want to migrate my coding work to my Windows 7 laptop, but I'm aware that development tools have changed a lot. Which tools (C/C++ compiler, x86 ASM compiler, linker, IDE, libraries) would be recommended for my work? Anything that suits vanilla WinQuake should work, maybe except for the VCC/CB project & workspace files' differences.
In the meantime, I guess I'll do some research now.
