# Compile Instructions
|
|
|
|
## Visual Studio (`.sln`)
|
|
|
|
1. Open `MinecraftConsoles.sln` in Visual Studio 2022.
|
|
2. Set `Minecraft.Client` as the Startup Project.
|
|
3. Select configuration:
|
|
- `Debug` (recommended), or
|
|
- `Release`
|
|
4. Select platform: `Windows64`.
|
|
5. Build and run:
|
|
- `Build > Build Solution` (or `Ctrl+Shift+B`)
|
|
- Start debugging with `F5`.
|
|
|
|
## CMake (Windows x64)
|
|
|
|
Configure (use your VS Community instance explicitly):
|
|
|
|
```powershell
|
|
cmake -S . -B build -G "Visual Studio 17 2022" -A x64 -DCMAKE_GENERATOR_INSTANCE="C:/Program Files/Microsoft Visual Studio/2022/Community"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Build Debug:
|
|
|
|
```powershell
|
|
cmake --build build --config Debug --target MinecraftClient
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Build Release:
|
|
|
|
```powershell
|
|
cmake --build build --config Release --target MinecraftClient
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Run executable:
|
|
|
|
```powershell
|
|
cd .\build\Debug
|
|
.\MinecraftClient.exe
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Notes:
|
|
- The CMake build is Windows-only and x64-only.
|
|
- Contributors on macOS or Linux need a Windows machine or VM to build the project. Running the game via Wine is separate from having a supported build environment.
|
|
- Post-build asset copy is automatic for `MinecraftClient` in CMake (Debug and Release variants).
|
|
- The game relies on relative paths (for example `Common\Media\...`), so launching from the output directory is required.
