new brute force version

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)
2. Download and install ​mingw
3. Download and install ​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.
4. Install ​msysDTK to the same direcory as msys.
5. extract the ​toMSYS.rar to msys.
6. extract the ​toMinGW.rar to mingw.
7. GTK is kept externally, as it is not a main dependency. But you can install it from ​here by just extract in into mingw
8. optionally you can always download the ​runtime libraries

4. Install ​msysDTK to the same direcory as msys.
5. Extract and copy the content of ​autoconf and ​automake to msys (this will overwrite the obsolete autoconf of msysDTK)
6. Extract and Copy the content of ​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);
   

7. Textures: extract ​SDL_image h into your minGW directory. Runtime Support: ​here
8. Sound: extract ​SDL_ttf. Runtime Support: ​here.
9. Fonts: extract ​SDL_mixer. Runtime Support: ​here.
10. OPTIONAL: if you want the GTK-gui and the console to work, Extract the ​GTK-dev-package to the minGW directory.
11. Checkout the code from ​http://svn.orxonox.net/orxonox to a place of your convenience and work with it.
12. If you want runtime support download ​SDL-Runtime , SDL_Mixer-libs and several gtk-runtime-libs.

(note that all packages can be downloaded from from ​http://mingw.org)
