    jakester12345:
    When i go to install gcc i type: mingw-get install gcc and it says that it's not an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

    Please Help

    Make sure you did step 1 and 2 right. Then it should work.

    What do I put for the dialogs in the compile.bat? I'm confused. Is the source code supposed to be in the MinGW Folder? I have it in a separate place on my C drive. Running windows xp

    You download the source from github and put it anywhere. Then you download the bat file and place it into the folder of the source (where the src and includes folders are). Then you just run the .bat and choose whatever option you like. (Choose 1,4,2 if your not sure what your PC can handle)

    Ok... Where do I extract the source... Yes I'm necroing... But... If I don't get this my mod will be dead.

    EDIT: I give up... This makes no sence it's not compiling.

    Your "compile.bat"'s link is dead.

    Most amazing necro ever. You couldn't think that a year old tutorial could possibly not work anymore and links might be dead, could you?
