|
Possibly any other Unix/POSIX OS.<br>
|
|
<font color=red>NOTE: some features of Winsock2 (WS2_32.DLL) are used. So even
|
|
if you plan to play single player only,
|
|
WinNT4.0 users will need Service Pack 3 or higher and Windows 95 users
|
|
will need the winsock 2 update from
|
|
<a href="http://www.microsoft.com/windows95/downloads/contents/WUAdminTools/S_WUNetworkingTools/W95Sockets2/Default.asp">here</a>.</font><p>
|

</ul>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Hardware Requirements</h2>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><b>Processor:</b> A 133 MHz CPU (faster recommended).<br>
|
|
<font color="red">NOTE: Stratagus is believed to be endian and word size safe, so other
|
|
architectures like (big endian) PPC or (64bit) Alpha should also
|
|
work at least with Linux.</font><p>
|
|
|
|
<li><b>Memory:</b> 16 MB of RAM (32 MB for mp3/ogg support).<br><p>
|

|
|
(for unix or Mac OS X) compatible sound cards are supported.<p>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Installation</h2>
|
|
|
|
Mac OS X users: Extract the "contrib/macosx.tgz" file to the
|
|
top-level directory and read "Read Me.rtf".<p>
|
|
|
|
Binary users may skip to step 3.<p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><b>Step 1, Download and Extract:</b><p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Download the source from
|
|
<a href="http://www.nongnu.org/stratagus/download.html">here</a>.<br>
|
|
<font color="red">NOTE: both the tar.gz and zip files are the same,
|
|
we provide both formats for convenience.</font><p>
|
|
|
|
<li>Unpack the source stratagus-DATE.tar.gz with
|
|
<pre> tar -zxvf stratagus-DATE.tar.gz</pre>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<li><b>Step 2, Compile:</b><p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><b>GCC/Mingw users:</b> run the 'setup' script and answer
|
|
the questions instructions to create the Makefile.
|
|
When complete, type 'make depend && make' to compile, and it
|
|
should compile a working 'stratagus' (or 'stratagus.exe' for win32)
|
|
binary. To see all options of setup, type 'setup --help'.<p>
|
|
|
|
<li><b>MSVC users:</b>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Extract the VC++ project and workspace files from stratagus\contrib\msvc.zip
|
|
into the root stratagus directory.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li><a href="http://savannah.nongnu.org/files/?group=stratagus">
|
|
Download</a> the VC++ libraries and extract them into the root
|
|
stratagus directory.
|
|
|
|
<li>Copy stratagus\contrib\stratagus.ico to stratagus\src.
|
|
<li>You should now be able to compile stratagus by opening
|
|
the stratagus.dsw file.<p>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<li><b>Windows CE(tm) / PocketPc(tm)</b>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>You need eMbedded Visual C++ 3.0. You can download or order it
|
|
<a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnppc2k/html/ppc_alc.asp">here</a>.
|
|
CE support for Visual C++ or Visual Studio isn't supported yet.
|
|
If you know how to compile with this, please inform us.
|
|
<li>You also need the
|
|
<a href="http://savannah.nongnu.org/files/?group=stratagus">emVC++ project</a> and
|
|
<a href="http://savannah.nongnu.org/files/?group=stratagus">emVC++ workbench</a> for Stratagus.<p>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<li><b>Step 3, Extract data:</b><p>
|
|
|
|
Now that you have a working engine, you need some media data before
|
|
you can actually play the game. You can either use the data
|
|
from the wc2 CD, or use another data set.<p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><b>Using wc2 data:</b><p>
|
|
For Win32, run:
|
|
<pre> build.bat DIR</pre>
|
|
where DIR is the directory to your CD or your
|
|
installation, (eg, 'e:' or 'c:\war2').<p>
|
|
For Unix, run:
|
|
<pre> build.sh -p DIR</pre>
|
|
where DIR is the directory to your mounted CD or your
|
|
installation, (eg, '/cdrom/' or '/mnt/win/war2').<p>
|
|
<font color="red">NOTE: You will need to execute this
|
|
script from within your root stratagus directory or
|
|
you will run into problems. It will take some
|
|
time to extract everything.</font><p>
|
|
|
|
<li><b>Using another data set:</b><p>
|
|
Installation for other data sets should be included with the
|
|
download. You may download Aleona from
|
|
<a href="http://www.nongnu.org/aleona/">here</a>.
|
|
<font color="red">NOTE you will need to specify the data
|
|
directory by passing '-d DIR' flag
|
|
when you run the stratagus binary, by default the binary
|
|
looks for 'data' in the current directory.</font><p>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<li><b>Step 4, Run:</b><p>
|
|
|
|
You may now go into the toplevel stratagus dir and run the binary. Remember,
|
|
if the data dir is not './data', you will need to run stratagus with
|
|
the '-d' option.<p>
|
|
</ul>
