I don't have VC++, can I use MinGW or GCC to compile the source files?

Of course you can. If you're using Linux try this documentation out: www.garagegames.com/docs/torque.sdk/gstarted/compilers.unix.html

If you're wanting to use MinGW or GCC on Windows then somebody will reply to this forum soon with information on how to do that since I've never really tried to do that before. Sorry. :(

Just cd your way to the torque directory, and:

Quote:
make -f mk/configure.mk OS=WIN32 BUILD=RELEASE COMPILER=GCC3
make all

That should work, assuming you have MinGW installed correctly. (well, it works for me; I have MinGW installed and MSYS installed).

Thanks for reply, I can build the engine, but I can't build the tools, just pop errors, any ideas?

I am using MinGW and MSYS

Do "make clean" before doing "make tools" in case you had compiled the game itself prior to doing "make tools". If you don't it will fail to build/link properly.

I run "make all" after "make clean" but still got error while compile the tools. What package I am missing?

I'm very interested in seeing this work as well...since I'd like to be using the MinGW compiler. I haven't got to the point where I can try it yet tho'... still gathering the pieces.

Looks to me like an include path problem... you might take a quick look at the Makefile in the map2dif directory to see if it makes sense.

Just a guess...

You need to modiffy the mk/conf.GCC3.WIN32 make file to add the vorbis libs

LINK.LIBS.VORBIS  = ../lib/vorbis/win32/libogg.a ../lib/vorbis/win32/libvorbis.a ../lib/vorbis/win32/libogg.a
LINK.LIBS.GENERAL = -lmingw32 -lcomdlg32 -luser32 -ladvapi32 -lgdi32 -lwinmm -lwsock32 -lvfw32 $(LINK.LIBS.VORBIS)
LINK.LIBS.TOOLS   = -lmingw32 -lcomdlg32 -luser32 -ladvapi32 -lgdi32 -lwinmm -lwsock32 -lvfw32 $(LINK.LIBS.VORBIS)

and in engine/targets.torque.mk look for the include section and it should be similar to the following

#---------------------------------------
# Set up include variables here.
INCLUDES_BASE = -I../lib/zlib -I../lib/lungif -I../lib/lpng -I../lib/ljpeg -I../lib/directx8 -I../lib/vorbis/include
INCLUDES_LINUX = $(INCLUDES_BASE) -I../lib/openal/LINUX
INCLUDES_OpenBSD = $(INCLUDES_BASE) -I../lib/openal/OpenBSD
INCLUDES_FreeBSD = $(INCLUDES_BASE) -I../lib/openal/FreeBSD
INCLUDES_WIN32 = $(INCLUDES_BASE) -I../lib/openal/win32

looks like it can not find the header files in the vorbis dir. This is set in the targets.torque.mk file as listed above.

Check your lib dir to see if you have a vorbis dir and its associated sub dirs.

The problem is with tools/targets.map2dif.mk -- it has it's own set of CFLAGS which don't include "-I../lib/vorbis/include". The file engine/targets.torque.mk is already the same as you posted above. The file mk/conf.GCC3.WIN32.mk is missing the "$(LINK.LIBS.VORBIS)" on the "LINK.LIBS.TOOLS" line. After the above two issues are fixed, "make all" was successful with MinGW32. :-)

This is for the CVS "Release_1_2_0" build.

I can compile the Release 1.2 engine and tools! Thank you :)

I try HEAD today and found the same problem, will this problem fix in next update? This help newcomer like me no need to spend so much time in compiling the engine.
