How to build

Windows

This projet is not yet set up for 64 bits compilation on Windows.

• Install Mingw-w64 (winlibs) GCC 13.1.0 (32-bit). Here, you have 2 options:

  • Add the <mingw-install-dir>/bin directory in your PATH environment variable,
  • Or put the absolute path of the compiler in the file Cpp/Makefile.win.

• Go to the Cpp folder and compile with mingw32-make -f Makefile.win release.

• You can find the built project in bin/win32-release.

Linux

Works on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS (with GCC 13 and SFML 2.6.1 in the apt repository).

• Install the necessary packages: sudo apt install make g++-13 libglu1-mesa-dev libopenal-dev libsfml-dev.
• Go to the Cpp folder and compile with make -f Makefile.linux release.
• You can find the built project in bin/linux64-release.

Linux via Docker

You can build the Linux version from any OS supporting Docker. You need to have Docker installed and running (Docker Desktop on Windows). On Windows, you also need Git-Bash, to run the provided Bash script.

• Go to the Cpp folder and run ./make-linux64-with-docker.sh release.
• You can find the built project in bin/linux64-release.
