Installation To build the Osirion Project from source code you will need the SDL and OpenGL library and header files. In theory, it should compile on any POSIX-compatible platform supported by SDL, but at the time of writing only linux is supported. I have succesfully compiled it on the following platforms: linux-x86_64, gcc 4.1.2, SDL 1.2.11 Obtaining the source code Get the latest version of the source code from svn: svn checkout svn://intranifty.no-ip.org/osirion This command will create a new subdirectory 'osirion' and download the source code into it. Compilint the source code Enter the new directory and compile the source code: cd osirion/ autoreconf -fi ./configure make At present, 'make install' is neither tested nor supported Game Data The game data should be located in the 'data' subdirectory of the main distribution. Get the latest version of the game data from svn: Run the following command from within the main distribution directory: svn checkout svn://intranifty.no-ip.org/osirion-data data Executing To run the client program, execute: src/osirion To run the dedicated server, execute: src/osiriond Updating If you downloaded and compiled the game before, there is no need to re-download the entire distribution. Update the game source code with the following commands: cd osirion/ make distclean svn update Rebuild the game: autoreconf -fi ./configure make Update the game data: cd data/ svn update cd ..
