Requirements -=============== - -In this tutorial we will use Dev-C++ because of the fact that it's a very good -free IDE for Win32 built around GCC. Remember, Win32 was not meant for GCC and -stuff so you will probably run into trouble unless you really know what you're -doing, so best stick with Dev-C++. - -Besides a C++ compiler, TMW depends on the following libraries: - -1) SDL -2) SDL_mixer -3) SDL_image -4) Guichan 0.6.1 -5) libiconv -5) libxml2 -6) PhysFS -7) zlib -8) libcurl - - -2. Installing Dev-C++ -===================== - -This tutorial is written and tested with the latest beta version, which is -4.9.9.2 at the time of writing. You'll probably run into problems when you try -the old stable version, so don't do that. Get Dev-C++ here: - - http://www.bloodshed.net/ - -After you have fetched it, simply run and install as prompted. - - -3. Installing the required libraries -==================================== - -The easy way is to get our development package which should work with the latest -development code (I'll try to update it as much as I can). -You can find it at: - - http://themanaworld.sourceforge.net/files/tmw-svn.DevPak - - -Just install this one and you should be ready to go. (Although please remember -to remove anything the devpak might overlap before installing, for example the -previous devpak.) Remember to copy the required dlls from your dll folder in -the Dev-Cpp root directory, to the folder where you have your copy of The Mana -World. You also have to add the SDL include folder in your C++ include paths. -If you're using Dev-C++, this means: Tools -> Compiler options -> --> Directories -> C++ includes -> Browse... (browse to MinGW/include/SDL) -> --> Add -> Ok. -If you can't get the package or you are experiencing problems with it, just -send me an email at elvenprogrammer@gmail.com or continue reading. (Coming to -bug us on the IRC channel is a valid alternative too.) - -If you installed the tmw-svn.DevPak, you already have all you need so you can -skip ahead to compiling. - -Most of the libs have DevPaks that are very easy drop-ins for Dev-C++, without -any complex actions on your side. - -Get the following DevPaks and archives: - -- SDL (http://devpaks.org/details.php?devpak=12) -- SDL_mixer (http://old.devpaks.org/show.php?devpak=8) -- SDL_image (http://old.devpaks.org/show.php?devpak=142) -- Guichan (http://guichan.sourceforge.net/downloads.shtml) -- libxml2 * (ftp://ftp.zlatkovic.com/pub/libxml/) -- PhysFS ** (http://icculus.org/physfs/downloads/unsupported/) -- zlib *** (http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/zlib.htm) -- libcurl **** (http://curl.haxx.se/download.html) - -Install them all through the Dev-C++ package manager. - -*) For libxml2, download the following files (these or newer versions): - - libxml2-2.6.19+.win32.zip - iconv-1.9.1.win32.zip - - From each file, copy the headers to your include directory, the libs to - the lib direcotry and the dlls (in bin direcotry) to your tmw directory. - -**) For PhysFS copy the headers to your include directory, the libs to - the lib directory and the dlls (in bin direcotry) to your tmw directory. - -***) Download developer files and put headers and libs in to include and lib - directories of Dev-Cpp. Download binaries and place the dll inside tmw - folder. - -****) Get latest win32 - mingw package and install as usual. - -You should now be fully equipped for compiling the latest TMW development -code! - - -4. Compiling The Mana World -=========================== - -Check out The Mana World from Subversion using either the command line svn -tool or TortoiseSVN, pick what you like to use most and install that. Next, -check out the following directory from our repository: - - https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/themanaworld/tmw/trunk - -Open "The Mana World.dev" in Dev-C++. From there on you should be able to -start compilition with Excute -> Compile. A file called tmw.exe should appear -in the same directory as where you opened the .dev from. - -Before you can actually run the executable be sure to copy over the following -DLLs from your Dev-Cpp/dll directory to the directory containing tmw.exe (or -alternatively into your c:\windows\system\ for a more universal solution): - - SDL.dll - SDL_image.dll - SDL_mixer.dll - guichan.dll - guichan_opengl.dll - guichan_sdl.dll - -And also make sure you have: - - libxml2.dll - libcurl-3.dll - libiconv-2.dll - physfs.dll - zlib1.dll - -Additionally don't forget to copy any updated .dll (when libs are updated, -the dll are usually updated too) to the folder containing tmw.exe (or to the -c:\windows\system\). - -Have fun hacking The Mana World! |
