If you have installed the game but still have problems running it or if you cannot compile the source distribution, try to look at the [[Frequently Asked Questions]] page, which contains a section related to installation problems.

[[Compiling#Sources_from_Mercurial|Looking for the latest development source code?]] See the Compiling page for information on how to download and compile from our Mercurial repository. From time to time we do [http://dl.sv.nongnu.org/releases/glob2/development_snapshot/ development snapshots], too but be aware that those are not yet released for a reason.

=== Source Distribution ===
* Get the [[#downloadlink_source|source distribution archive]] from the download section above.
* Extract the archive using a compression/extraction utility such as tar.
* Go in the extracted archive. If you have a Unix system (Linux, Solaris, Mac OS X):
** Run the 'scons' script to compile the game (it will check dependencies, install any you have missing)
*** If you want to install the game in a special place, instead of 'scons', type:
scons BINDIR="/path/to/install/bin" INSTALLDIR="/path/to/install/share"
** Install with a simple 'scons install' command (will install to the location you might have entered when compiling (BINDIR and INSTALLDIR)).
** Run the game by typing 'glob2'. If it doesn't work, type '/path/to/install/bin/glob2' instead.
** Note: in some Linux distributions (eg: Archlinux), scons complains about not to find -lboost_thread (with boost already installed). A solution is to modify the SConstruct file to look for boost_thread-mt instead of boost_thread, and the modify the LIBS variable with boost_thread-mt, to link against this library. If you have root access you can create a symlink libboost_thread.so instead.


</div><br style="clear:both;">
=== Sources from [[Mercurial]] ===
{{Warning|Warning|Mercurial is occasionally unstable and will break, it is meant for testing purposes.}}
* Download the source code from the Mercurial by typing
:hg clone http://hg.globulation2.org/glob2/
:hg clone -r default glob2 glob2-work
:* You can update the source code you have any time with a simple
cd glob2
hg pull
cd ../glob2-work
hg pull -r default ../glob2
hg update -C tip
* Read the README.hg and README files.
* Continue by following the [[#Source_Distribution|''source distribution'']] instructions from the 3rd step onwards.

Beta 4 0.9.4.4 Released: 0.9.4.4 has been released, fixing an issue with YOG not displaying IRC users as it was supposed to.

Note: Glob2 may not work on OS X Snow Leopard. We are waiting on a patch to SDL before we can update our binary

If you have installed the game but still have problems running it or if you cannot compile the source distribution, try to look at the Frequently Asked Questions page, which contains a section related to installation problems.

Looking for the latest development source code? See the Compiling page for information on how to download and compile from our Mercurial repository. From time to time we do development snapshots, too but be aware that those are not yet released for a reason.
