Where do I run this?: REM NOTE This will take quite some time to compile REM To compile it faster you can usemake -j{core count}instead ofmake` where REM core count is 2 cores less than the number of cores available on your machine pushd ./Animations/vendor/ffmpeg ./configure \ --toolchain=msvc \ --prefix=./build \ --disable-doc \ --arch=x86_64 \ --disable-x86asm make make install

REM Rename the files to .lib extension to make premake happy mv ./build/lib/libavcodec.a ./build/lib/libavcodec.lib mv ./build/lib/libavdevice.a ./build/lib/libavdevice.lib mv ./build/lib/libavfilter.a ./build/lib/libavfilter.lib mv ./build/lib/libavformat.a ./build/lib/libavformat.lib mv ./build/lib/libavutil.a ./build/lib/libavutil.lib mv ./build/lib/libswresample.a ./build/lib/libswresample.lib mv ./build/lib/libswscale.a ./build/lib/libswscale.lib popd`

in msys msys2 or in the vs cmd or where. What file. How. Thanks

Hi, you need to run this in the msys2 terminal that was launched when following step 2.

To set up a proper environment in MSYS2, you need to run msys_shell.bat from the Visual Studio or Intel Compiler command prompt. To do this:

I'm going to close this issue for now, but if you feel like this still isn't enough information feel free to comment and let me know and I'll try to update the readme with more clarity.

Thanks, but I have another issue with cmake, it throws C:/msys64/usr/bin/cmake.exe: error while loading shared libraries: ?: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory when i run cmake .. with msys. Any fox for that?

ambrosiogabe commented 1 year ago

Hey for that, you'll want to run cmake from a regular Windows command prompt. Sorry about the confusion!

TheBosoYolo commented 1 year ago

Okay, now I have the .sln file somewhere and I build it like a normal c code in vs code or somewhere OR there is a .exe to run it

ambrosiogabe commented 1 year ago

Yes, now there should be a file MathAnimationsPrj.sln in your build directory and you can launch that and then press F5 and it should compile it and run the program :)

TheBosoYolo commented 1 year ago

oh yea. I compiled it and it ran just fine, just when I run the MathAnimations.exe it throws some error

idk if it is you that makes the youtube videos, but if it is you, I am impressed. 1st you took 8 months to make this and 2nd you make it look so easy to use, its hard af
