Windows

To build on Windows, use Cygwin. Use the default settings.

Then get the most recent version of rgbds. Extract the archive and put rgbasm.exe, rgblink.exe and rgbfix.exe in C:\cygwin\usr\local\bin.

In the Cygwin terminal:

install $(lynx -source rawgit.com/transcode-open/apt-cyg/master/apt-cyg) /bin
apt-cyg install make git python gcc-core libsasl2-3 ca-certificates

lynx -source bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py | python
pip install pypng

git clone --recursive https://github.com/pret/pokecrystal
cd pokecrystal

To build pokecrystal.gbc:

make

Vagrant

The simplest way to get pokecrystal to compile is to use Vagrant and VirtualBox. Follow these steps:

• Download and install Vagrant
• Follow the instructions to download and install VirtualBox
• Run these commands:

vagrant box add pokecrystal http://diyhpl.us/~bryan/irc/pokecrystal/pokecrystal.box
mkdir vagrantbox
cd vagrantbox
vagrant init pokecrystal
vagrant up
vagrant ssh -c "cd /vagrant && git clone --recursive https://github.com/pret/pokecrystal"
vagrant ssh

Running "vagrant ssh" will give you a shell to type commands into for compiling the source code. Then the "virtualbox" directory on the host appears as a shared folder inside of the guest virtual machine at "/vagrant".

To build the project, run these commands in the guest (that is, inside "vagrant ssh"):

cd /vagrant/pokecrystal
make
