GUYS GUYS GUYS. FIRST THING YOU NEED TO READ:

docs/READ_THIS_FIRST.txt might work. If not, there's a tutorial on the forums:

http://iceballga.me

This is FINALLY a game, BUT is not ready to be released yet.

By Stack's request, this project is now known as "Iceball".

mesa.vxl is by Triplefox, and is currently being used to test load/render.

Ice Lua Components contains some content from libSDL, which is licensed under the LGPL version 2.1. It is marked accordingly.

The manual is in the public domain, except where otherwise specified.

1. a C compiler that isn't crap (read: not MSVC++)

• specifically, GCC
• MinGW is a port of GCC for Windows: http://mingw.org/
• if you use something else we might consider compatibility with it
• learn_more has managed to get this to build with MSVC++ so uh, that could work too.

2. SDL 1.2 (not 1.3) - http://libsdl.org/
3. Lua 5.1 (not 5.2) - http://lua.org/
4. zlib - http://zlib.net/
5. sackit - https://github.com/iamgreaser/sackit/

• you should copy libsackit.a and sackit.h to xlibinc.

6. GNU make

• if someone has BSD make, please tell us :)

After installing/compiling all dependencies, just execute make. No ./configure needed.

If some trouble with lua, try uncomment line in Makefile

HEADERS_Lua = #-I /usr/include/lua5.1

Also, if you get error "library not found for -llua" try change line in Makefile

LIBS_Lua = -llua

to

LIBS_Lua = -llua5.1

If you encounter another problem, keep your eye on Makefile

1. create a folder winlibs in the buldenthesnip dir dump all dll's + lib's in this folder (opengl, lua, zlib, sdl, glew) dump all includes in submaps (glew in glew submap, and so on)

• /buldenthesnip/
  • /winlibs/
    • /glew/
    • /lua/
    • /SDL/
    • /zlib/
    • glew32.lib
    • glew32.dll
    • lua5.1.lib
    • lua5.1.dll
    • and so on..

2. right mouse on project -> properties.

• Working directory: $(SolutionDir)/../
• Command Arguments:
  • -c iceballga.me 20737 (connect to srv)
  • -s 0 pkg/base (make local srv)

3. edit clsave/pub/user.json
4. now run it from vs.net debugger :)

• DOCS!!! (ones which aren't crap)
• make net_pack more solid
• JSON writer
• make kicking not suck

git update-index --assume-unchanged clsave\pub\user.json

git remote add upstream git://github.com/iamgreaser/buldthensnip.git
git pull --rebase upstream master
git push origin master
