Windows Server

From Diversia wiki

This is a brief explanation on how to compile the server on windows. Currently only Visual Studio 2008 (VC9) is supported, we hope to add more IDE/compilers to the list later.

1. Check out the svn stable branch: http://xmultiverse.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/xmultiverse/branches/stable. The folder where the trunk is checked out is C:\MultiVerse\ in this tutorial.
2. Download the latest server dependency package from: http://sourceforge.net/projects/xmultiverse/files/dependencies-server/. The file you need is called dependencies-server-vc9-x.xx.zip where x.xx is the version number.
3. Extract the dependencies to C:\MultiVerse\server.
4. Go to C:\MultiVerse\server\bin and run getdlls.bat.
5. Go to C:\MultiVerse\scripts\VC9 and open MultiVerse.sln with VC9.
6. Compile the server in VC9, the recommended build target is ReleaseProfile.
7. To run the server you need a postgresql database with certain settings filled in for your server. A tutorial to do this will be up later.
8. You can run the server at C:\MultiVerse\server\bin\ReleaseWin32. (if you chose ReleaseProfile as the build target)
