    If you are familiar with the terminal and whatnot, then
    -- Install required programs and code libraries for the game.
    ~$ sudo apt-get install git-core libsdl1.2-dev libbz2-dev liblua5.1-0-dev build-essential libfftw3-dev
    -- Make new folder for TPT. Not required if you can cd to your own directory.
    mkdir TPT/
    cd TPT/
    -- Download the game's latest source code.
    git clone https://github.com/FacialTurd/The-Powder-Toy.git
    -- Move to the newly-created Powder Toy directory #2:
    cd The-Powder-Toy/
    -- Compile Powder Toy
    make powder
    -- If this works, no error is shown and in your TPT directory, under bin/ there'll be a powder executable.
    -- If not, then the build ends with "Error X"

    Thanks.

    I will try it!

     

    EDIT:

    Cooool!

    It works!

    If I grab the source every day and compile it, i have always the newest pre-beta-version, haven't I?

     

    And if I modify the scripts before compiling, I can make changes so that I could upload things from beta-version or something?

    Guys it doesnt matter anymore, I bought new GPU because it was slowing down everything in my pc, since it was very old socket... Now I run it at 61 FPS.

    Yes, yes you would have and you could save beta stuff. But don't because uploading beta stuff won't play with other versions.

    Glad you learned about computer hardware. Not worth the bump I think, but I dunno.
