Compiling on Windows

To compile on Windows, the user first has to get the required set of programs.

Downloading MinGW and SDL
MinGW Download Page SDL Download Page

Installing MinGW
Packages that are required to be installed are: mingw-developer-tool, mingw32-base, mingw32-gcc-g++, and msys-base.

Be sure to make a new fstab file - the installation includes fstab.sample, which does NOT work. You have to copy it all into a new file and save it as "fstab" (with quotes - otherwise, it's saved as a useless text file).

Installing SDL
You might have to copy the SDL.dll file into Windows/SysWOW64 instead of Windows/Sys32

Compiling The Game
Launch the msys shorcut that you made while installing minGW. (if you didn't, run C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\msys.bat).

Navigate through your source folder, type runToBuild and press enter.

Additionally, you can read the text files available for you that tell about how to connect to main server and such.
