----------------
-An InfiniMiner/Minecraft inspired game.

-This is a development version:
-------------------------------
-- Don't expect it to work as well as a finished game will.
-- Please report any bugs to me. That way I can fix them to the next release.
- - debug.txt is useful when the game crashes.
-
-Controls:
----------
-- See the in-game pause menu
-- Settable in the configuration file, see the section below.
-
-Map directory:
---------------
-- Map is stored in a directory, which can be removed to generate a new map.
-- There is a command-line option for it: --map-dir
-- For a RUN_IN_PLACE build, it is located in:
- ../map
-- Otherwise something like this:
- Windows: C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\minetest\map
- Linux: ~/.minetest/map
- OS X: ~/Library/Application Support/minetest/map
-
-Configuration file:
--------------------
-- An optional configuration file can be used. See minetest.conf.example.
-- Path to file can be passed as a parameter to the executable:
- --config <path-to-file>
-- Defaults:
- - If built with -DRUN_IN_PLACE=1:
- ../minetest.conf
- ../../minetest.conf
- - Otherwise something like this:
- Windows: C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\minetest\minetest.conf
- Linux: ~/.minetest/minetest.conf
- OS X: ~/Library/Application Support/minetest.conf
-
-Command-line options:
----------------------
-- Use --help
-
-Compiling on GNU/Linux:
------------------------
-
-Install dependencies. Here's an example for Debian/Ubuntu:
-$ apt-get install build-essential libirrlicht-dev cmake libbz2-dev libpng12-dev libjpeg8-dev libxxf86vm-dev libgl1-mesa-dev libsqlite3-dev
-
-Download source, extract (this is the URL to the latest of source repository, which might not work at all times):
-$ wget https://github.com/celeron55/minetest/tarball/master -O master.tar.gz
-$ tar xf master.tar.gz
-$ cd celeron55-minetest-286edd4 (or similar)
-
-Build a version that runs directly from the source directory:
-$ cmake . -DRUN_IN_PLACE=1
-$ make -j2
-
-Run it:
-$ cd bin
-$ ./minetest
-
-- Use cmake . -LH to see all CMake options and their current state
-- If you want to install it system-wide (or are making a distribution package), you will want to use -DRUN_IN_PLACE=0
-- You can build a bare server or a bare client by specifying -DBUILD_CLIENT=0 or -DBUILD_SERVER=0
-- You can select between Release and Debug build by -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=<Debug or Release>
- - Note that the Debug build is considerably slower
-
-Compiling on Windows:
----------------------
-
-- You need:
- * CMake:
- http://www.cmake.org/cmake/resources/software.html
- * MinGW or Visual Studio
- http://www.mingw.org/
- http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/vstudio/default
- * Irrlicht SDK 1.7:
- http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net/downloads.html
- * Zlib headers (zlib125.zip)
- http://www.winimage.com/zLibDll/index.html
- * Zlib library (zlibwapi.lib and zlibwapi.dll from zlib125dll.zip):
- http://www.winimage.com/zLibDll/index.html
- * And, of course, Minetest-c55:
- http://celeron.55.lt/~celeron55/minetest/download
-- Steps:
- - Select a directory called DIR hereafter in which you will operate.
- - Make sure you have CMake and a compiler installed.
- - Download all the other stuff to DIR and extract them into there. All those
- packages contain a nice base directory in them, which should end up being
- the direct subdirectories of DIR.
- - You will end up with a directory structure like this (+=dir, -=file):
- -----------------
- + DIR
- - zlib-1.2.5.tar.gz
- - zlib125dll.zip
- - irrlicht-1.7.1.zip
- - 110214175330.zip (or whatever, this is the minetest source)
- + zlib-1.2.5
- - zlib.h
- + win32
- ...
- + zlib125dll
- - readme.txt
- + dll32
- ...
- + irrlicht-1.7.1
- + lib
- + include
- ...
- + minetest
- + src
- + doc
- - CMakeLists.txt
- ...
- -----------------
- - Start up the CMake GUI
- - Select "Browse Source..." and select DIR/minetest
- - Now, if using MSVC:
- - Select "Browse Build..." and select DIR/minetest-build
- - Else if using MinGW:
- - Select "Browse Build..." and select DIR/minetest
- - Select "Configure"
- - Select your compiler
- - It will warn about missing stuff, ignore that at this point. (later don't)
- - Make sure the configuration is as follows
- (note that the versions may differ for you):
- -----------------
- BUILD_CLIENT [X]
- BUILD_SERVER [ ]
- CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE Release
- CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX DIR/minetest-install
- IRRLICHT_SOURCE_DIR DIR/irrlicht-1.7.1
- RUN_IN_PLACE [X]
- WARN_ALL [ ]
- ZLIB_DLL DIR/zlib125dll/dll32/zlibwapi.dll
- ZLIB_INCLUDE_DIR DIR/zlib-1.2.5
- ZLIB_LIBRARIES DIR/zlib125dll/dll32/zlibwapi.lib
- -----------------
- - Hit "Configure"
- - Hit "Generate"
- If using MSVC:
- - Open the generated minetest.sln
- - The project defaults to the "Debug" configuration. Make very sure to
- select "Release", unless you want to debug some stuff (it's slower)
- - Build the ALL_BUILD project
- - Build the INSTALL project
- - You should now have a working game with the executable in
- DIR/minetest-install/bin/minetest.exe
- - Additionally you may create a zip package by building the PACKAGE
- project.
- If using MinGW:
- - Using the command line, browse to the build directory and run 'make'
- (or mingw32-make or whatever it happens to be)
- - You should now have a working game with the executable in
- DIR/minetest/bin/minetest.exe
-
-Windows releases of minetest are built using a bat script like this:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-set installpath="C:\tmp\minetest_install"
-set irrlichtpath="C:\tmp\irrlicht-1.7.2"
-
-set sourcedir=%CD%
-set builddir=%sourcedir%\bvc10
-mkdir %builddir%
-pushd %builddir%
-cmake %sourcedir% -G "Visual Studio 10" -DIRRLICHT_SOURCE_DIR=%irrlichtpath% -DRUN_IN_PLACE=1 -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=%installpath%
-"C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\MSBuild.exe" ALL_BUILD.vcxproj /p:Configuration=Release
-"C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\MSBuild.exe" INSTALL.vcxproj /p:Configuration=Release
-"C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\MSBuild.exe" PACKAGE.vcxproj /p:Configuration=Release
-popd
