how to compile outdated
The how to compile instructions, at least for windows, look to be a bit old :\ can't even get close to having them work. Is there an updated copy somewhere?
Re: how to compile outdated
the compile instructions on the wiki are in the process of being updated (thanks to Reenen and Graziel).

is where we're working on it. It's not perfect, and you may need some assistance in the IRC channel, but the big trick is to get the preassembled compiler.

Got it working 
Re: how to compile outdated
Just piggybacking on this thread -
I'm still having a lot of issues with this, getting much further with the old page than with the new one. I would use irc but I'm not really in a hurry and think having documentation of progress would probably help people in the future.
I think the issue is the different mingw and pointing to the gcc binary. Currently the page says
Which I think is unfinished - I tried both this method and that listed in the older revisions of the page.
I checked the revisions and tried adding the path ;C:\MinGW\bin to my environmental variables, but I'm still getting several errors before compiling even begins. Not really sure where the error log output goes from mingw, so just copying it out manually.
I followed the rest of the instructions, only difference is my ttf version is 2.0.10 instead of 2.0.9 so I modified those two lines in premake4.lua

Add the path to the gcc binary to your path
Go to Start-> Run
type cmd
in the new window type path c:\mingw\bin;%path%

Re: how to compile outdated
Under the old method I had to add a ; to the end of the path.
So... ;C:\MinGW\bin;
So... ;C:\MinGW\bin;
Re: how to compile outdated
This was missing, but the issue persists. I can do premake4.exe --cc=gcc gmake in mingw, but not make -e CC=gcc. So maybe it was something else?edge2054 wrote:Under the old method I had to add a ; to the end of the path.
