Here are some short directions on compiling Armagetron on windows.
2
You will need Visual C++ 6. The sources are distributed over three
3
CVS modules: the generic sources are in "armagetronad", the VisualC
4
build files are in "armagetronad_build_visualc" (which you probably
5
already have, since this file usually lives there) and the libraries
6
Armagetron depends on are in "armagetronad_winlibs". You need to
7
check out all three modules from the repository at
8
:ext:<your sf username>@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/armagetronad
10
:pserver:anonymous@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/armagetronad
13
1. Create a project directory (e.g. C:\Projects\Armagetron)
14
3. put the armagetronad source files there
15
4. In the same directory, put the armagetronad_build_visualc files
16
4. In the same directory, put the armagetronad_winlibs files
17
5. It should look something like this:
20
+- armagetronad_build_visualc
21
+- armagetronad_winlibs
22
6. Go to the armagetronad_build_visualc directory
23
7. Run the makedist.bat file to build the Dist and Debug directories
24
8. Start the Armagetron workspace (Armagetron.dsw)
25
9. To compile you will need to change the build profile to either
26
Release or Debug (it defaults to Profile for some reason)
