QUICK NOTE: You must own and install Morrowind before you can use
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
OpenMW. Let me repeat that: OpenMW will NOT run if you do not have
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Morrowind installed on your system!

The second release should now work with the GDC compiler (the D
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
frontend for GCC) and DSSS. Since GDC is the only option for compiling
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
on other Unixes, on 64 bit and on Mac, this will probably make porting
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
to these platforms much easier. DSSS (a specialized D build tool) will
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
hopefully make porting to Windows a lot easier.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To compile, you no longer use 'make'. Instead you use 'dsss build',
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
which will run 'make' for you. (More details below.)

dependencies as well. There is a bug in the compiler can breaks

any sensible error message.

work. Note however that DMD is only available on 32 bit Linux - other

Once everything is set up correctly, you might need to alter a couple
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
of lines in the Makefile. The Makefile is only used to compile the C++
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
parts of OpenMW, that interfaces with Ogre, OIS and Audiere. On the
|
|
|
|
|

|
line:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

OGCC=g++ `pkg-config --cflags OGRE`

|
Insert the path to your OIS include directory (or leave it blank if
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
you installed OIS in /usr). For example, you might add:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
-I/home/me/my/path/to/OIS/include
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You might also need to add other include paths or options for Ogre if
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the pkg-config command doesn't work for some reason. Mine outputs
|

The binary downloads have been compiled on a 32-bit Ubuntu 8.04 box

with the libraries mentioned below. They might not work on other linux

systems due to differing library setups. If this is the case, then
|
