Looks like you have the include files set up for Ogg Vorbis, but something's wrong with the libraries. How did you install libogg and libvorbis?

I followed the install.mingw instructions. First, I copied all the dlls across, then the two include files (ogg and vorbis).

There may be a slight mistake in the INSTALL.mingw file. I think you also need the files from the lib directory in the Ogg Vorbis SDK in your MinGW lib directory.

Copied all. No Ogg or Vorbis Support. Here's what it says:

Try putting pkg-config.exe in the MinGW bin directory.

pkg-config.exe - System Error

The program can't start because libglib-2.0-0.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.

This glib should do the trick.

So, it compiled but when clicking on the .exe, I get this:

"The Program can't start because vorbisfile.dll is missing on your computer..."


It says I have to copy across the dll files. Which ones are they and where do they go?

The least problematic solution (least likely to create problems with other software) is probably to keep all the DLLs in the same directory as the .exe. You need all the DLL files you linked into UQM: SDL, SDL_image, as well as Ogg Vorbis and/or zlib depending on which you used. If they were not included in the developer downloads you used, use the DLLs from the corresponding runtime downloads.

Final problem (at least, I hope so):

Use the --contentdir option (or -n) to specify where the content is. For example, if you are running from the source tree:

Code:
./uqm-debug -n content

So,  I ran that, and a new (but similar) error occured:

I'm assuming this means I have to compress the content files to create the .uqm file. Should I compress the entire source code (All the files except content), or just some of them. If so, which ones?

Just dropping this here in case you haven't figured this yet: The content packages must be in the dir uqmdir/content/packages/, not uqmdir/content.

Yeh, I figured that out. Just got to work out what should be compressed and what shouldn't.

You don't need to compress any of the content; in fact, you can't use compressed content unless you enabled that option when compiling.
