Installing the latest release

+

+ Before you can run the game, you must have working OpenGL libraries. + These are usually installed by the driver package for your videocard. +

+

+ You can find the latest release in the downloads section of the website:
+ http://osirion.org/index.php?page=downloads +

+ + + +

Windows

+

+ Download for 32-bit windows
+ osirion-latest-win32.zip (32-bit)
+ This package should work on most windows systems. +

+ Download for 64-bit windows
+ osirion-latest-win64.zip (64-bit)
+

+

+ Dowload the game data package:
+ osirion-latest-data.zip
+

+

+ Unzip the executables package to an approriate directory. Unzip the game data package + in the new directory. For example, if the game was unzipped to + D:\Osirion then there should be + a directory D:\Osirion\data\base containing the game data. +

+

+ Open the game directory in explorer and click on osirion.exe to start the client. +

+ + + +

Linux

+

+ Requirements:
+ To run the client, tour system will need to have the following packages installed: libSDL, libjpeg, libpng and libz. + To run the dedicated server you need libz and ncurses.
