Does X2 have to have a separate install per platform?
I ask as I have the Win32/64 version already and tries to compile the Linux version which seemed OK but bow the Windows version chucks errors.
There is Windows and Mac precompiled distributions.
https://blitzresearch.itch.io/monkey2What sort of errors do you get?
From my experience all the errors for me occurred by using a random MinGW version. On the contrary, this is the only recommended version.
Mingw-6.2.0 build tools for Windows
http://monkey2.monkey-x.com/monkey2-files/Also the bin must be set as a PATH variable (typing g++ on command prompt should display a compiler message).
develop branch may not always be ‘easy’ to build, depending on what in particular is being developed at the time.
Also the bin must be set as a PATH variable
You shouldn’t need to do this if mingw has been added to monkey2’s devtools dir.
With MonkeyX1 all versions worked on all desktop systems from the one directory. I was wondering if the X2 system was the same from experience it doesn’t seem to be.
If I have to have separate versions for X2 it doesn’t bother me I run from a 16Gb flash drive so I have the space
I was trying a Windows 10 (64bit) and Ubuntu Linux 14.04LTS (64bit)

EdzUp, don’t give up. Try and reproduce the issue and post steps and resulting error condition you experience.
will try to reproduce once I sort out my Ubuntu install, the Creator win10 update ‘fixed’ it for me.
