First PPS Download

We check out the source and data repository and build for the first time

1. Open a Terminal.
2. Create a folder for yourself on the local harddrive:

   mkdir /scratch/<your-username> 
   cd /scratch/<your-username>
   

3. Create your orxonox directory:

   mkdir orxonox && cd orxonox
   

4. Now check out the latest revision of the data repository (you will probably be asked for a username and password once):

   svn co http://svn.orxonox.net/game/data/trunk data_extern
   

   4.1 Open a new terminal tab, to work in parallel.

   Press Control + Shift + T.
   

   4.2 Now get the latest revision of the tutorial:

   svn co http://svn.orxonox.net/game/code/trunk
   

4.3 While you wait, open another terminal tab, download and unzip additional dependencies:

wget http://svn.orxonox.net/downloads/tardisDependencies.zip
unzip tardisDependencies.zip
rm tardisDependencies.zip

5. Wait for both branches to check out completely.

6. Prepare to build:

   mkdir build && cd build
   cmake ../trunk
   

7. Now build for the first time (may take some time, further builds will be faster):

   make -j4
   

   The -j4 means to create 4 parallel compile processes.

Start the game for the first time

8. Start the game. You will see a menu popping up, just press the Quickstart button.

   ./run
   

Download your own branch
