Mapping/UFORadiant Installation
From UFO:AI
Contents |
Getting UFORadiant
You may already have UFORadiant depending on how you installed UFOAI and, if compiled, what options you compiled with. If you go to your installation directory for UFOAI, look for a subfolder named "radiant". If it's there, UFORadiant is already installed. Click on the uforadiant.exe file in the radiant subfolder to load it and skip ahead to the Mapping For Dummies tutorial.
If not, you'll need to download or compile UFORadiant. At the moment it doesn't have a regular release cycle or a "stable" version (although most versions are pretty stable). This means tracking down the right installation file is not always that easy, something we hope to do better on in the future.
Here are links to the latest stable release. If any of these are no longer available, please let us know in the forums:
Compile yourself
You are encouraged to get the source from the SVN and compile yourself.
Dependencies for compiling under Debian/Ubuntu:

You can compile UFORadiant by selecting the correct project in the Code::Blocks project file. There is also a downloadable application to help you easily compile the game with UFORadiant.
Once Installed
Once you've got it installed, move on to the Mapping For Dummies guide.
