The Odamex client and launcher require extra libraries which are not usually included with your operating system.
SDL2
SDL2 is a crossplatform library used to display graphics. It is required in order to compile the Odamex client.
Windows
SDL2 comes with no installer on Windows, you simply extract the zip into a random directory and reference it. Pointing your compiler at SDL2 is discussed in the compiler-specific pages.
You want to grab the Development Library on this page that compliments your compiler.
- • If you are using Visual Studio, get the one labeled "VC".
- • If you are using MinGW, get the one labeled "Mingw32". If you don't have anything to extract a tar.gz file with, install 7-zip. You will also need to download the library itself, as the MinGW package does not come with the .dll file.
Linux
There is usually a copy of SDL2 and SDL2_mixer included in the repositories of your distribution of choice:
- • CentOS (requires EPEL for SDL2_mixer): yum install SDL2-devel
- • Debian: apt-get install libsdl2-dev
- • Fedora: yum install SDL2-devel
- • openSUSE: zypper in SDL2-devel
- • Ubuntu: aptitude install libsdl2-dev
Otherwise, you can grab the latest source distribution of SDL2 from here.
SDL2_mixer
SDL2_mixer is a compliment to SDL2, and handles both sound and music. It is required in order to compile the Odamex client.
Windows
SDL2_mixer comes with no installer on Windows, you simply extract the zip into a random directory and reference it. Pointing your compiler at SDL2_mixer is discussed in the compiler-specific pages.
You want to grab the Development Library on this page. It is labeled SDL2_mixer-devel and works with both Visual Studio and MinGW.
Linux
There is usually a copy of SDL and SDL_mixer included in the repositories of your distribution of choice:
- • CentOS (requires EPEL for SDL2_mixer): yum install SDL2_mixer-devel
- • Debian: apt-get install libsdl2-mixer-dev
- • Fedora: yum install SDL2_mixer-devel
- • openSUSE: zypper in SDL2_mixer-devel
- • Ubuntu: aptitude install libsdl2-mixer-dev
Otherwise, you can grab the latest source distribution of SDL2_mixer from here.
wxWidgets
wxWidgets is a library used to display graphical user interfaces. It is required in order to compile the Odamex launcher.
Windows
wx on Windows is a peculiar beast. While it comes with an installer, you have to compile it yourself in order to generate the proper files for compiling Odalaunch.
- Download and wxWidgets 2.8 for MSW here.
- Run the installer. It is recommended to keep the default installation directory (in particular do not install it to Program Files).
- Follow these instructions if you are using MinGW.
- Make sure that MinGW is installed properly and that c:\MinGW\bin is in your path.
- Open up a Command Prompt and change to the C:\wxWidgets-2.8.##\build\msw directory.
- Run mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc MONOLITHIC=0 UNICODE=0 SHARED=0 BUILD=release
- Change to the C:\wxWidgets-2.8.##\utils\wxrc directory.
- Run the same command you ran in step 3.
- You're done!
- Follow these instructions if you are using Visual C++.
- Open up a Visual Studio Command Prompt. There is a shortcut for this in the Visual Studio folder of your Start menu.
- Change to the C:\wxWidgets-2.8.##\build\msw directory.
- Run nmake -f makefile.vc MONOLITHIC=0 UNICODE=0 SHARED=0 BUILD=release
- Change to the C:\wxWidgets-2.8.##\utils\wxrc directory.
- Run the same command you ran in step 3.
- You're done!
