Installation

On Linux

1. On Debian-derived distributions: sudo apt-get install pkg-config libsdl1.2-dev libfltk1.3-dev libglew-dev libcurl3-openssl-dev (because of a bug in some distributions, you might also have to install more packages by sudo apt-get install libjpeg-dev libxinerama-dev libxft-dev)
2. mkdir openspades.mk && cd openspades.mk && cmake .. && make OpenSpades
3. sudo make install
4. Two choices:
   • Download windows binary of OpenSpades from https://sites.google.com/a/yvt.jp/openspades/downloads, extract it, and copy the .pak files inside Resources directory into /usr/local/share/openspades/Resources or ~/.openspades/Resources
   • Download CMake, and run the cmake-gui (don't set the binary dir to be the same dir as your project dir, but preferably set it to something like OpenSpades.msvc (this directory is ignored by git).
5. openspades and enjoy

On Windows (with visual studio)

1. Get CMake, Visual studio, and the OpenSpades source. Official: https://github.com/yvt/openspades Unofficial: https://github.com/learn-more/openspades
2. Extract or checkout the source (all examples will assume E:/Projects/openspades, update paths in the examples to reflect yours)
3. Get (pre-compiled) copies of fltk, glew, curl, sdl and zlib, and place them in E:/Projects/openspades/Sources/Externals. See the file E:/Projects/openspades/Sources/Externals/readme.txt for details (and a pre-compiled set of libraries).
4. Run CMake, using the paths: Source: E:/Projects/openspades Binaries: E:/Projects/openspades/OpenSpades.msvc For your convenience, create the directory: E:/Projects/openspades/OpenSpades.msvc/os.Resources, extract the resources (.pak files) to this dir, set OPENSPADES_RESDIR to point to this directory. (Run CMake again, now when running debug builds openspades will also read resources from this dir)
5. Open E:/Projects/openspades/OpenSpades.msvc/OpenSpades.sln in visual studio.
