Run pacman -Syu, this will grab only a few updates including pacman itself, type y at the prompts to resolve conflicts.

On a fresh installation, please check the MSYS2 website carefully for immediate update information, the gist should be: If you already have MSYS2 installed, you can skip the (re)installation but make sure that your packages are up to date with the pacman -Syu command. If you use a 32-bit system, use msys2-i686-*.exe instead. MSYS2 has a graphical setup wizard that makes setting it up easy: simply download and run msys2-x86_64-*.exe from the website. Platform note: MSYS2 requires Windows Vista or newer to run, but the executables produced will be able to launch on Windows XP.

However, be aware that these project files may be out of date, and the "canonical" way of building Chocolate Doom is using MSYS2. If you have used DOS or the Windows command line in the past you will find that things are fairly similar.ĭevelopers who are unhappy with this arrangement can use the alternative build project files to compile using either Microsoft Visual Studio or Code::Blocks.

However, MSYS2 is a Unix-like environment, so if you are not familiar with using a Unix command line, or find these instructions confusing, it may be a good idea to do some basic reading about how to use one. Using MSYS2 also means that Chocolate Doom is not dependent on a proprietary tool.īuilding using MSYS2 is not difficult. MSYS2 provides a Unix-like development environment that is the same as other platforms, so the build system and compiler (autotools, make, gcc) are identical for every operating system that Chocolate Doom runs on. Windows developers may find this unusual as Microsoft Visual Studio is often considered the "standard" compiler for that platform. Chocolate Doom is built on Windows using the MSYS2 build environment.
