This file describes how to compile D2X-Rebirth from source.
D2X needs SDL, GLU (optionally) and PhysicsFS.
You can download PhysicsFS it from: http://icculus.org/physfs/ or http://www.dxx-rebirth.de
-gcc/g++
-mingw [windows]
-nasm (optional, for sdl-build)
-sdl(-devel)
-GLU/GL
-scons (recommended)
-PhysFS
Building with SCons:
* run "scons" with desired command-line options (see "scons -h" for complete list of options)
* you may want to run "scons install" to install the binary after it's build
* copy your data files to the SHAREPATH (default: /usr/local/share/games/d2x-rebirth)
Building with make:
* run ./autogen.sh
* run ./configure. Use '--help' for more information and parameters.
* You also should use '--with-opengl' to compile the OpenGL build (recommended)

They can go in a different directory, but you have to use the -hogdir option (D2X will read options from the d2x.ini file as well as the command line). Also, you can use -userdir to change where it puts the player files, saved games etc. Note that it will also put screenshots in here if using PrintScreen.

Linux:
Please consider dxx-compile.txt.
In linux, all filenames must be in _lower case_. It's important.
Mac OS 9:
The d2x.ini that's used is inside the package. Control-click 'd2x-rebirth' and choose 'Show Package Contents'. It's in Contents:MacOSClassic. The userdir could be set to "Macintosh HD:System Folder:Preferences:D2X" (no quotes), with your hard disk name in place of "Macintosh HD". If Multiple Users is enabled, this would be different: "~:Preferences:D2X" or something.

@ -151,19 +146,6 @@ Reason: The D2X Redbook only works with an analog signal.
Solution: Make sure you have connected a audio cable from your CD drive to your
soundcard.
Problem: The game crashes while loading a personal level (RL2 file).
Reason: No Bug in D2X. Linux reads input case sensitive. RL2 file description
in MN2 file has the wrong letter case.
Solution: If you look in the MN2 file of your level you will find the name of
the RL2 file. This string should exactly named as the RL2 file
itself.
Example: * In MYLEVEL.MN2 - 'MyLevel.RL2'. RL2 file is named 'mylevel.RL2'.
This won't work.
* In MYLEVEL.MN2 - 'MYLEVEL.RL2'. RL2 file is named 'MYLEVEL.RL2'.
This will work.
(NOTE: there is also a small shell script for download, that may help
you correcting your addon levels)
Problem: D2X doesn't look better than the DOS version. Where are the GL FX?
Reason: You just don't have activated them.
Solution: Use the option '-gl_mipmap' or '-gl_trilinear' to activate

Solution: Go to control center -> gamecontroller. There set your joystick as
"preferred device".
I'll try to find better solutions for these problems listed above if possible.
