How to build (Windows)

Building on Windows

• Install Visual Studio 2015
• Install needed packages (SDL2) via nuget
• Copy everything from the pkg directory to the _build directory

(Optional) Dependencies for building the video tool

• Follow the instructions for installing dependencies needed to build ffmpeg. At the time of writing, the MSYS2 route worked best for me https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/CompilationGuide/MinGW
• Download latest libx264: git clone git://git.videolan.org/x264.git
• Build it: cd x264; ./configure --enable-shared --enable-pic && make -j8
• Download latest ffmpeg: git clone git://source.ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg.git ffmpeg
• Build it: cd ffmpeg; ./configure --enable-shared --enable-pic --enable-gpl --enable-libx264 --disable-programs --extra-ldflags=-L../x264 --extra-cflags=-I../x264 && make -j8

How to build (Linux and Mac)

Building on Linux and Mac

• Make sure you have CMake, SDL2, SDL2_image and gcc installed

(Optional) Enabling and building the video tool

• Download latest libx264: git clone git://git.videolan.org/x264.git
• Build it: cd x264; ./configure --enable-shared --enable-pic && make -j8
• Download latest ffmpeg: git clone git://source.ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg.git ffmpeg
• Build it: cd ffmpeg; ./configure --enable-shared --enable-pic --enable-gpl --enable-libx264 --disable-programs --extra-ldflags=-L../x264 --extra-cflags=-I../x264 --extra-libs=-ldl && make -j8
• Run: make -j8 videotool

Building a release build
