Disclaimer

This project is under the GPL licence, this means that the sourcecode should always be made available to anyone asking for it and should be included with any modified binaries.

You might want to compile the sourcecode yourself from current SVN for various reasons:

• to test the current build before it is officially released
• to implement your own features.

However, I would appreciate if you respect the following points:

• current SVN build should always be considered as unstable and work in progress: you are free to compile the current source code but don't complain about bugs and don't make any public binary distribution from this. You can always get the last stable code from the tagged versions.

• you can modify the sourcecode as you want but in order to keep this project clean and structured, I would ask you to keep ANY private build for yourself and to avoid public distribution of derivative works. If you think the modification you made should be implemented in an official release, please contact me: I would eventually include them and obviously give all the credits to you.

How to Compile ?

You will need to be familiar with development environment setup. If you don't, you might look at wiibrew or this thread at tehskeen's forum.

You will have to download and install the following tools/libraries from the official Devkitpro ressource page:

1. the last version of DevkitPPC. Windows user should directly run the Automated Installer. During installation, make sure you get libogc and libfat libraries as well.They should be installed in C:/devkitpro/libogc/
2. the following portlibs (PPC versions): libpng & libtremor. They should be extracted in C:/devkitpro/portlibs/ppc/

Once you are done, grab the current genplus-gx source code from SVN then launch compile_all.bat or compile it from msys (installed with devkitpro)

The DevkitPro download page provides all the precompiled libraries and include files required to compile the current source code of Genesis Plus GX. However, you could also get the current source code of the libraries, compile them yourself and install as specified (generally make then make install).

The following libraries are required:

• libogc, from his SVN repository
• libfat, from his SVN repository
• libtremor: OGG music file playback
• libpng: PNG image file support
