How to compile and run ManaVerse on your GNU/Linux Box ================================================= Homepage: http://manaverse.germantmw.de/ IRC: irc.libera.chat:6697 (TLS) / #themanaworld-dev 1) Requirements 2) Compiling And Installing ManaVerse 3) Notes 1. Requirements =============== You are expected to have either checked out ManaVerse from Git or you have downloaded a source release. To get ManaVerse to compile, you need a compiler (GCC) and some libraries. The required libraries are: * SDL http://www.libsdl.org/ * SDL_mixer http://www.libsdl.org/projects/SDL_mixer/ * SDL_image http://www.libsdl.org/projects/SDL_image/ * SDL_net http://www.libsdl.org/projects/SDL_net/ * SDL_ttf http://www.libsdl.org/projects/SDL_ttf/ * SDL_gfx http://www.ferzkopp.net/joomla/software-mainmenu-14/4-ferzkopps-linux-software/19-sdlgfx * libxml2 http://www.xmlsoft.org/ * zlib 1.2.x http://www.gzip.org/zlib/ * libcurl http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/ If you've cloned the Git repository, you will also need these tools to compile: * GNU automake 1.9 http://www.gnu.org/software/automake/ * GNU autoconf http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/ * GNU gettext http://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/ * CVS http://www.nongnu.org/cvs/ (needed to run autopoint) On some machines, it's been reported that this package is also needed. However, you might not need it: * GNU libtool http://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/ Installing these dependencies is distributions-specific, and we'll leave it to you to figure this out. 2. Compiling And Installing ManaVerse ==================================== Building with GNU Autotools 1) Go to the directory you have extracted the source to. 2) If you've cloned the Git repository, run "autoreconf -i" to generate configure and install any missing auxiliary files. 3) Run "./configure" 4) Run "make" 5) Run "make install" as root It should have installed ManaVerse on your system now, and you can run it with "manaverse". By default all files are installed to /usr/local, you can pass a different prefix to configure as usual. NOTE: It is possible to compile ManaVerse without support for OpenGL rendering. To do this perform step 3 as follows: ./configure --without-opengl Rebuild the executable from scratch using "make clean" and then "make". Building with CMake 1) Create a directory for building and change to that directory. 2) Configure the build with: cmake 3) Compile with: cmake --build ./ 4) Copy files to install directory with: cmake --install ./ NOTES: - To set output directory for install add `-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=` to configure command. - To build with SDL 2.0 instead of 1.6 add `-DUSE_SDL2=ON` to configure command. - To disalbe OpenGL add `-DUSE_OPENGL=OFF` to configure command.
