  1. At first you will need subversion from [subversion.tigris.org]. There is also a GUI version out there at [http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org] (The commandline svn is probably the right choice if you are experienced with the shell, and for advanced work)
  1. Download and install [http://www.orxonox.ethz.ch/files/mingw/Development/mingw/MinGW-3.1.0-1.exe MinGW]
  1. Download and install [http://www.orxonox.ethz.ch/files/mingw/Development/msys/MSYS-1.0.10.exe msys]
   1. choose another path than minGW for msys installation
   2. while installing say twice yes (y)
   3. give the exact path to the minGW directory, so msys can configure the important links.
  1. Install [http://www.orxonox.ethz.ch/files/mingw/Development/msys/msysDTK-1.0.1.exe msysDTK] to the same direcory as msys.
  1. Extract and copy the content of [http://www.orxonox.ethz.ch/files/mingw/Development/msys/msys-autoconf-2.59.tar.bz2 autoconf] and [http://www.orxonox.ethz.ch/files/mingw/Development/msys/msys-automake-1.8.2.tar.bz2 automake] to msys (this will overwrite the obsolete autoconf of msysDTK)
  1. Extract and Copy the content of [http://www.orxonox.ethz.ch/files/mingw/Development/mingw/SDL-devel-1.2.8-mingw32.tar.gz libSDL] to the minGW directory. (if you get a compile error in orxonox change in MinGW/include/SDL/SDL_audio.h on line 97 the function Pointer to the following: 
{{{
void (*filters[10])(struct SDL_AudioCVT *cvt, Uint16 format);
}}}
  1. Textures: extract [http://www.orxonox.ethz.ch/files/mingw/Development/mingw/SDL_image-devel-1.2.4-VC6.zip SDL_image h] into your minGW directory. Runtime Support: [http://www.orxonox.ethz.ch/files/mingw/Development/mingw/SDL_ttf-devel-2.0.7-VC6.zip here]
  1. Sound: extract [http://www.orxonox.ethz.ch/files/mingw/Development/mingw/SDL_ttf-devel-2.0.7-VC6.zip SDL_ttf]. Runtime Support: [http://www.orxonox.ethz.ch/files/mingw/Runtime/SDL_ttf-2.0.7-win32.zip here].
  1. Fonts: extract [http://www.orxonox.ethz.ch/files/mingw/Development/mingw/SDL_mixer-devel-1.2.6-VC6.zip SDL_mixer]. Runtime Support: [http://www.orxonox.ethz.ch/files/mingw/Runtime/SDL_mixer-1.2.6-win32.zip here].
  1. OPTIONAL: if you want the GTK-gui and the console to work, Extract the [http://www.orxonox.ethz.ch/files/mingw/Development/mingw/gtk/gtk-dev.rar GTK-dev-package] to the minGW directory.
  1. Checkout the code from [http://svn.orxonox.ethz.ch/reporx/orxonox] to a place of your convenience and work with it.
  1. If you want runtime support download [http://www.orxonox.ethz.ch/files/mingw/Runtime/SDL-1.2.8-win32.zip SDL-Runtime] , SDL_Mixer-libs and several gtk-runtime-libs.
