Compiling tbaMUD
|
||||
under Microsoft Windows using CygWin
|
||||
Originally by: Jeremy Elson, David Goldstein, Tony Robbins, and George Greer.
|
||||
|
||||
tbaMUD compiles under Cygwin without needing any special modifications.
|
||||
This free pseudo-Unix environment for Windows includes the "bash" shell, "gcc"
|
||||
family of compilers, and a full set of programs and libraries for Windows users
|
||||
to compile and run programs from source code intended for Unix. It can be
|
||||
downloaded from: http://cygwin.com/

|

|
||||
Compiling tbaMUD under Cygwin is basically the same as it would be under
|
||||
another form of Unix:
|
||||
|
||||
1) Download from: http://cygwin.com/setup.exe
|
||||
Select open.
|
||||
Install from Internet
|
||||
Select "just me" "dos"
|
||||
Choose a mirror site.
|
||||
Leave selected package as default.
|
||||
Select the following from devel: autoconf, gcc, make, and patchutils
|
||||
Click Next.
|
||||
Install, follow prompts.
|
||||
Install from Internet.
|
||||
Choose a root directory, I use C:\
|
||||
Select "just me" "Unix / binary"
|
||||
Select a local package directory, I use C:\WINDOWS\Temp
|
||||
Leave Direct Connection selected.
|
||||
Choose a download site.
|
||||
You can either click the "circular arrow" next to All to install the whole
|
||||
thing (it lags a bit, wait for it) or leave default and add the necessary
|
||||
packages yourself by expanding devel and adding: autoconf, gcc, make, and
|
||||
patchutils (choose the first one of each). The all option requires
|
||||
broadband and at least an hour to download. It will automatically install
|
||||
once complete, just follow the prompts.
|
||||
|
||||
2) Download and uncompress the latest version of tbaMUD:
|
||||
http://cwg.lazuras.org/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=viewdownload&cid=16
|
||||
Join the forums as they will be a great resource for any problems that you
|
||||
encounter. Once you download and uncompress tbaMUD (I use winRAR) read
|
||||
through the /doc directory.
|
||||
2) Download the latest version of tbaMUD from http://tbamud.com
|
||||
Create an account on tbamud.com as it will be a great resource for any
|
||||
problems that you encounter. Once you download and uncompress tbaMUD (I use
|
||||
winRAR) read through the /doc directory.
|
||||
|
||||
3) Start the Cygwin "bash" shell by double clicking the Cygwin Icon. This will
|
||||
open a telnet looking window that mimics a *nix server where you can run the
|
||||
MUD. Go to the directory where you extracted tbaMUD by using the "cd" change
|
||||
directory command and "dir" directory listing to find the correct files. For
|
||||
example "C:\tbaMUD". "cd c:/tbaMUD" "dir" in the listed files you should see
|
||||
one called configure. DO NOT go into the SRC directory yet.
|
||||
example "C:\tbaMUD". "cd c:/tbaMUD" then "dir" to list the files. You should
|
||||
see one called configure. DO NOT go into the SRC directory yet.
|
||||
|
||||
4) Run the configure script by typing "./configure". This will automatically
|
||||
detect what programs and library functions are available, and create the
|
||||
files "Makefile" and "conf.h" based on the results.
|
||||
|
||||
If you get complaints from bash that it will not run the configure script
|
||||
either because it cannot find it or because it claims the file is not
|
||||
an executable, you can also try "sh configure", "sh ./configure",
|
||||
"bash configure" and "bash ./configure" until one of them works.
|
||||
|
||||
5) NOW change to the /tbaMUD/src directory "cd src", and type "make", and watch
|
||||
tbaMUD and the additional utilities included in the tbaMUD distribution
|
||||
automatically being compiled and placed in /tbaMUD/bin.
|
||||
|
||||
6) Go back to /tbaMUD, and run the MUD either directly by typing "bin/circle",
|
||||
or by using the "./autorun &" script. The & makes it run in the background.
|
||||
|
||||
7) Start a telnet program. Open a connection to your own machine "localhost"
|
||||
on port 4000. You should see the MUD's login screen welcoming you. The
|
||||
first person to login will be promoted to IMP.

If you have problems, read this document again. Most of the questions received

having problems and you're *sure* that your question is not answered in this
|

document or in one of the others files in the /tbaMUD/doc directory, try
