Building on Windows
Requirements
For building under Windows, the following is required:
- Visual Studio .NET, version 2015 or later
Building
To create the project files, run
Load the generated OpenSim.sln into Visual Studio .NET and build the solution.
Configure, see below
Now just run `OpenSim.exe` from the `bin` folder, and set up the region.
# Building on Linux / Mac
## Requirements
* [Mono > 5.0](https://www.mono-project.com/download/stable/#download-lin)
* On some Linux distributions you may need to install additional packages.
* msbuild or xbuild(deprecated) if still supported by the mono version
* See [the wiki](http://opensimulator.org/wiki/Dependencies) for more information.
### Building
To create the project files, run:
./runprebuild.sh```
then run msbuild or xbuild if xbuild was installed.
Configure. See below
run ./opensim.sh from the bin folder, and set up the region
For rebuilding and debugging use the msbuild option switches
- clean:
msbuild /target:clean - debug: (default)
msbuild /property:Configuration=Debug - release:
msbuild /property:Configuration=Release
Configure
Standalone mode
Copy OpenSim.ini.example to OpenSim.ini in the bin/ directory, and verify the [Const] section, correcting for your case.
On [Architecture] section uncomment only the line with Standalone.ini if you do now want HG, or the line with StandaloneHypergrid.ini if you do
copy the StandaloneCommon.ini.example to StandaloneCommon.ini in the bin/config-include directory.
The StandaloneCommon.ini file describes the database and backend services that OpenSim will use, and is set to use sqlite by default, which requires no setup.
Grid mode
Each grid may have its own requirements, so FOLLOW your Grid instructions!
in general:
Copy OpenSim.ini.example to OpenSim.ini in the bin/ directory, and verify the [Const] section, correcting for your case
On [Architecture] section uncomment only the line with Grid.ini if you do now want HG, or the line with GridHypergrid.ini if you do
and copy the GridCommon.ini.example file to GridCommon.ini inside the bin/config-include directory and edit as necessary
