− | ==Compiling BZFlag 2.0.x on Windows==
| |
− | To compile BZFlag 2.0.x on Windows, it is recommended that you use Microsoft Visual C++. MSVC7 and MSVC8 are the recommended, MSVC9 may have some incompatibilities. You may use MSVC Express Edition to compile BZFlag, but you will not be able to distribute your executables.
| |
− |
| |
− | Once you have downloaded your source code, you will also need libcURL, the Windows Server 2003 Platform SDK and DirectX April 2007 SDK. (Note that the November 2007 SDK is incompatible.) Install these libs.
| |
− |
| |
− | Once the libs are installed, go to the win32 subdirectory of the BZFlag source and go to either the MSVC7 or MSVC8 directories, depending on the version you are using. Click on the BZFlag solution, and build the projects by pressing F5. This may take some time. Once the projects have been built look under the top directory for your executable.

− | ==Compiling BZFlag 2.0.x on MacOSX==
| |
− | To compile BZFlag 2.0.x on MacOSX, you need to have XCode installed. In addition, you will need to get SDL from the [http://www.libsdl.org SDL web site].
| |
− |
| |
− | The simplest way to build is to use the Terminal command-line interface. From the '''bzflag''' directory, run
| |
− | % '''./autogen.sh'''
| |
− | % '''./configure'''
| |
− | % '''make'''
| |
− | Note that depending on your preferences, you may want to use the following arguments to configure: '''--enable-universal''' to make a universal binary and '''--enable-shared''' to use shared objects. For testing and development purposes, it is strongly recommended that you use '''--enable-debug'''.
| |
− |
| |
− | After '''make''' has completed (without errors!) the three executables ([[:Category:client|BZFlag]], [[BZFS]], and [[BZAdmin]] will be located in the '''bzflag/src/''target''''' directory. You can run these programs from the command line, but if you want to make a double-clickable application, you will need to use XCode.
| |
− |
| |
− | Launch XCode and open the '''bzflag/BZFlag.xcodeproj''' project. Note that XCode should have '''BZFlag''' selected as the active target and '''Development''' as the active build configuration. Click on '''Targets''' then click the '''Build''' icon. When this process completes, your application will be in '''bzflag/build/Development'''. You can then move it wherever you like.
