##Build Dependencies##

• CMAKE
• GLEW
• SDL2
• ASSIMP
• BUILD TOOLCHAIN (Can be any one of the following, doesn't need to be all of them)
  • Linux
    • make, gcc, g++ ( Install with your package manager )
    • CodeBlocks
  • Mac OS X
    • make, gcc, g++ ( Install with preferred package manager like HOMEBREW )
    • Xcode ( Download from Mac AppStore )
    • CodeBlocks
  • WINDOWS
    • Visual Studio
    • CodeBlocks

###NOTES for Dependencies### On Unix/Linux/Mac you can likely install CMAKE, GLEW, SDL2 and ASSIMP with your package manager

# On ubuntu just run
sudo apt-get install cmake libglew-dev libsdl2-dev libassimp-dev

# On Mac with HomeBrew just run
brew install cmake glew sdl2 assimp

##Simple Build Instructions## ###Mac OSX/Linux/Unix###

• Open a Terminal and run:

# install dependencies

./Unix-Build.sh [Build Target, Debug or Release (Optional)] [Any arguments for CMake (Optional)]

#For instance, you can use the CMake argument -G "Xcode" to generate an Xcode project during build,
#or you can use -G "CodeBlocks - Unix Makefiles" to generate a CodeBlocks Project.
#See http://www.cmake.org/ for more details about CMake arguments

• If this fails for any reason, try using the Manual Build Instructions below.

###Windows###

• Make sure CMake is both installed and added to the system PATH.
• Run "Windows-GenVisualStudioProject.bat" If this fails for any reason, try using the Manual Build Instructions below.
• Go to the build folder, and open 3DEngineCpp.sln with Visual Studio 2012 or newer (For older versions of Visual Studio, use manual build instructions)
• Right click on the 3DEngineCpp project, and select "Set as start up project"
• Build and Run

##Manual Build Instructions## ###Linux/Unix###

• Open a Terminal and run:

# install dependencies
cd build
cmake ../
make

###Mac OSX###

• Open a Terminal and run:

# install dependencies
cd build
cmake ../
make

###Windows/MinGW###

• Make sure CMake is both installed and added to the system PATH.
• Open a Terminal and run:

# install dependencies
# Install GLEW in %PROGRAMFILES%/GLEW or SET %GLEW_ROOT_DIR% to where GLEW is on your machine (Example: D:\PATH_TO_GLEW)
# Install SDL2 in %PROGRAMFILES%/SDL2 or SET %SDL2_ROOT_DIR% to where SDL2 is on your machine (Example: D:\PATH_TO_SDL2)
# Install ASSIMP in %PROGRAMFILES%/ASSIMP or SET %ASSIMP_ROOT_DIR% to where ASSIMP is on your machine (Example: D:\PATH_TO_ASSIMP)
cd build
# REPLACE "Visual Studio 12" with your preferred build toolchain (Maybe you want "Codeblocks - MinGW Makefiles")
# BTW VS 10 is VS 2010, VS 11 is VS 2012 and VS 12 is VS 2013, BLAME MicroSoft for the naming! LOL! 
cmake -G "Visual Studio 12" ../
# open the generated SLN file (or cbp file if using CodeBlocks) and build!

• Copy the DLLs in /lib/_bin/ to /build/Debug/ and /build/Release/
• In Visual Studio, set the Startup project to 3DEngineCpp
• Move the res folder into the build folder
• Run
