Programming / Build on Windows without VS
« on: February 04, 2018, 01:41:16 am »
Hi Everyone!
I'm trying to build a version of my own, but first I try to build the source without any change. I managed to build all the dependencies (or download them), but they seems to be broken. I am able to start my build, but I cannot start a new game, because it crashes or freeze or simply exits depending the dlls I put in the path. I have several questions:
- how can I figure out which dll to use, or which version of the dependencies are the good ones to build from?
- SupSuper's nightly build does not require any dlls, how could I achieve that? The nightly is a bit smaller than my build.
- I build with mingw32-make (MSYS), because that what I know is free. Is there a free version of Visual Studio? Should I use it?
Thank you!
