Re: N00b question: How do I view the Source code?
Now the the old farts answer first off what OS do you run Win 7,OSX or ONE of the many flavors of Linux as that will determine which tool chain you will use. There is a procedure for each on the wiki athttp://vegastrike.sourceforge.net/wiki/ ... ode_HowTos If you have further questions fell free to post

For me, properly configured CodeLite IDE works, in that it can edit, compile (/src as the project root) and run (needs VS/data path via -D in command line) VS.

Re: N00b question: How do I view the Source code?
I am running Win 7.
Thank you guys for the replies!
I have been trying to find out how to view the source code because when i download source code it gives me many folders, not one page of code. I am new to programming and I am wondering what all the folders are and which one is the actual code for the game

Re: N00b question: How do I view the Source code?
All those folders are normal especially on any large project as C and C++ break things down into functions that are called from a main loop that and the source code also includes several utilities for manipulating data for inclusion in the game.Building vegastrike from source code on Windows is not a trivial task even for experts so don't be too disappointed if it takes a while to happen I know that i will probably do a jig when I finally succeed in getting a running exe While getting a Linux binary is a relative doddle.

Thank you very much for the response!
Yea I got a little intimidated when I saw all those folders when I was expecting just to see a script of code that I could just throw in my compiler and run it as if I made it
