Building instructions very unclear

[TheLettuceClub]

As the title says. The Readme's compilation instructions are unclear. I've seen elsewhere here that the devs are busy handling the Sonic Unleashed so I don't expect this to get fixed quickly.

Here's what I did, despite the fact that it didn't generate the executables mentioned in the readme:

1. clone the repo
2. initalized submodules
3. created a build directory and went into it
4. ran "cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release"
5. ran "msbuild XenonRecom-All.sln -t:Clean -p:Configuration=Release" (omitting the release config param made the build fail)

Then there weren't any exes in the place I looked. If someone can point me to better instructions or just update them in the readme, that'd be great for everyone!

[KinglyNerd33]

I'm in the same boat. Can't find any exes. I figured it was the errors I was getting in Visual Studio.

If you guys struggle with Visual Studio, you might want to give MSYS2 a try, I wrote the steps in my fork of the project, hopefully it will be good enough

Thanks! I got Msys2 up and running, installed the necssary packages, and now im stuck at the cloned repo part. I cloned through msys2 and it says it's done but I can't find the repo. It's not in my C drive. When I did this with Visual Studio, I found it in C/Users/Me/XenonRecomp but it doesn't seem to know where it even is. Accessing my C drive by going into the /c folder of msys2 doesn't seem to work and I can't put the command cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug.

Everytime I get so close, There's always something! Thank you so much for your time if you can somehow help with this! It really means the world

I vaguely remember /mnt/c/ being the correct directory. This might've been on WSL though, I am unsure.

Where did you clone the repo from, your MSYS2 ?

Thanks for the instructions! I tried it on my machine but ninja kept throwing errors saying it couldn't find files that did exist. It was also printing Windows-style paths even though I ran it in the MSYS2 terminal so not sure what's going on there.

Where did you clone the repo from, your MSYS2 ?

I try cloning it with Git and it would make the folder but couldn't find where the folder was, so I tried to clone it with MSYS2 and got the same results

By default, git for windowsclones all projects in your C:\users\<username> folder. MSYS2 would do it in the directory you ran the command from. Make sure you clone the repo with the --recursive option as well.

--Recursive worked! It gave me all the missing files. Now when I put in cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug in git, it says that something was build but I can't seem to find the build.ninja file. Putting in the ninja command doesn't work in either git bash or msys2

[k3kyoin]

I can run the cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug command through MSYS, but it gives me this wall of errors once i run ninja.

Trying to clone libc+.dll returns cp: cannot stat '/clang64/bin/libc++.dll/': Not a directory.

The lack of libc++.dll in the clang64 folder indicates to me that you're not using the CLANG64 environment, make sure you launch that one

[k3kyoin]

I'm using MSYS2 CLANG64. I tried redoing the entire process entirely from the MSYS2 terminal, but still no luck. It looks like there's an error while running ninja.

Hmmmmm, that's curious. libc++ comes with the mingw-w64-clang-x86_64-libc++ package if you don't already have it, but even without that your output seems to indicate that the compilation is made with g++ so you should set the CC and CXX compiler options to Clang

[KinglyNerd33]

Was getting errors like "missing libc++.dll, libgcc_s_seh-1.dll and libstdc++-6.dll" so I found the files and copied them into the XenonRecomp folder. The errors have stopped but now the .exe keeps closing after I opened it. Was I suppose to put these files somewhere else?

[halotroop2288]

I suffered through the trial and error of trying to set this up and finally figured it out earlier today thanks to help from @Sakimotor!

I also tried this on Linux a few times but it so far has not worked for me even with @DennisStanistan's instructions from #20.

Summarized instructions for Windows from #21

Install MSYS2 and use the "MSYS2 CLANG64" environment
