This page will explain, step by step, how the external libraries are compiled.

You should always use the external package that is located in the File tab so you can ignore the following text.

If you want to create an new external package or compile an external library manually, read the following text.

Windows

libvorbis & libogg

Download sources http://xiph.org/downloads/
Unzip
open XXX/win32/XXX.sln
compile projects in release

openal

Download "OpenAL SDK for Windows" here http://developer.creative.com/landing.asp?cat=1&sbcat=31&top=38
Unzip

s3

Extracted from nevrax.org download because this lib doesn't exist anymore

curl

Download sources http://curl.haxx.se/download.html
Unzip
rename to curl
Comment or remove HAVE_GMTIME_R and add #define HTTP_ONLY 1 in lib/config-win32.h
For win2000 compatibility, add #include <wspiapi.h> after #include <ws2tcpip.h> in lib/setup.h
Open a dos command (visual studio cmd)
C:\code\external9_raw\curl
nmake vc-ssl-zlib RTLIBCFG=dynamic

mysql & zlib

Download Windows Source (zip) http://dev.mysql.com/downloads
Unzip
rename root directory to mysql
comment or remove the define in include\config-win.h #define HAVE_OPENSSL 1
and #define HAVE_YASSL 1
Open mysql.sln in root directory
Select mysqlclient
Select Release mode
Compile

lua

Download lua5_0_3_Win32_vc8_lib.zip here http://luaforge.net/frs/?group_id=110
Unzip et voila

luabind

Download boost 1.30 http://ovh.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/boost/boost_1_30_0.tar.gz
Download luabind0.6 http://ovh.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/luabind/luabind-b6.tar.gz
Add #include "lauxlib.h" in the cpp
Make

FreeType2

Download http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=3157
Rename to freetype
Open freetype\builds\win32\visualc\freetype.sln
Select "Release Multithread" mode
Compile

ODE

It uses the SVN tag https://opende.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/opende/tags/0.8
(now we use dSingle, let's try to see if it works)

Copy config-default.h from ode\build to ode\include\ode
Verify that trimesh enabled and opcode defined are set to 1
Open ode\build\vs2005\ode.sln
Select ReleaseLib
Change the runtime library from Multithread DLL to Multithread
Compile
Select DebugLib
Change the runtime library from Multithread Debug DLL to Multithread Debug
Compile

STLport

Download the last version from http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=146814
Open a dos command (visual studio cmd)
cd D:\code\external9_raw\STLport
configure msvc9 --rtl-dynamic
cd build\lib
uncomment in stlport/stl/config/host.h #define _STLP_USE_STATIC_LIB
nmake clean install

libjpeg

Download: http://www.ijg.org/files/jpegsrc.v6b.tar.gz
Rename jconfig.vc into jconfig.h
Edit makefile.vc and add a '-' before the $(RM) to avoid the makefile error during deleting non existing file
Open a dos command (visual studio cmd)
cd C:\code\external9_raw\jpeg-6b
Execute "nmake /f makefile.vc"

libxml2

It uses the SVN tag http://svn.gnome.org/svn/libxml2/tags/LIBXML2_2_6_27
http://svn.gnome.org/viewcvs/libxml2/tags/LIBXML2_2_6_27

Open a dos command (visual studio cmd)
cd C:\code\external9_raw\libxml2\win32
@cscript configure.js compiler=msvc debug=no iconv=no zlib=no static=no dynruntime=yes http=no ftp=no
nmake /f Makefile.msvc libxmla

eax

fmod

install the latest version fmod ex
manually copy file from programfile/fmod/api to fmodapiex
