Documentation - Confusion on install #82

Closed arruda closed 9 years ago

arruda commented 9 years ago

Hi there, I decided to try out this fork of the project, but found the docs on how to make it install somehow very confusing and incomplete.

If someone could help me out, I can try to make it more clear for others what has to be done "step-by-step" in order to help contribute to this project =).

Some questions, considering an Ubuntu machine:

Thanks for the attention =)

Hi, To run the game, you need to install Pyglet(1.1.4 or 1.2alpha), PIL, AVBin and OpenAL library, latest version is ok. After you have all these packages installed you can start the client by running python main.py or run python server.py to start a server. Cython is optional but recommended for a better performance. More information about cython can be found in the readme.

Do you know if it's possible to run this with Pillow instead of PIL? Also is there a specific version required for cython to run this or that shouldn't be a problem? Thanks for the help, you'll try installing it in my PC soon with this instructions =)

I did manage to run the client, just a note, the OpenAL site seems to be offline, but could install it using the apt:

apt-get install libopenal-dev

It seems to be running, but I have some problems yet. But I believe the installation was ok. Just going to find out what is the problem that I ran into. Thansk @Jimx-
