Note: These are the old directions of compiling Bullet. The directions for the current version are on the Compiling page. |
The Bullet physics library must be manually built on versions of VDrift prior to SVN R2321 and with releases up to and including the 8/5/08 release. A preferred version of the library is included with the VDrift source distribution as a .tgz file. On linux, bullet can be compiled like this (replace the X with whatever bullet version is included with the VDrift source distribution):
tar zxvf bullet-X.tgz cd bullet-X
Then, proceed as below using either jam or cmake as your build tool:
Using Jam
./autogen.sh ./configure jam bulletcollision bulletmath
Using CMake
cmake . make
Using autotools
./autogen.sh ./configure make
These steps should put the bullet libraries into a spot in the bullet-X tree that the VDrift build files are expecting.
Note: It is not necessary to install the bullet library on your system. In fact, installed versions of bullet may conflict with the version included with VDrift. |
