This page explains how to compile and run Orxonox on Windows using MinGW. MinGW is free software that contains a port of the popular GCC compiler. You can combine MinGW with an IDE of your choice.

Install

Since september 2010 we officially support a new version of MinGW with GCC 4.5.0. Below you find a tutorial that explains how to install it. If you want to upgrade from an older version of MinGW, see the section "Old guides". We strongly encourage you to install GCC 4.5.0, because that's required for the new releases of Ogre (starting with 1.7.0). If you decide to stay with GCC 3.4.5, you have to use old dependency packages which are not maintained anymore.

Troubleshooting

If you experience problems while building or running Orxonox, check this page, maybe it's a known problem:

Old guides

If you already installed MinGW (by following and old version of this guide), you don't have to re-install everything, just follow the small guide below:

For people that want to use an old version of MinGW, we still provide the old guide, but keep in mind that it's outdated and may not work anymore with future versions of Orxonox.
