Obtaining the latest release

Warning: The game is currently under heavy development, and many features are currently missing. This release is a development snapshot, not a completed playable game - please check our site and forums for future updates!

Windows

Download and run 0ad-win32.exe (115 MB) (self-extracting 7-Zip), then select a location to extract the files. This includes all the source code and data files, and precompiled binaries.

Run the game from binaries\system\pyrogenesis.exe. If you want to modify and compile the game yourself, follow the build instructions using the files from this release instead of downloading from SVN.

SHA1 digest (to verify the download):

18f584b74f3df709a6694bafee646e9a8cb752ee  0ad-r07539-pre-alpha-win32.exe         

Linux packages

Unofficial packages may exist or be in development for several distros:

If you use a different distro, or if these packages are outdated, or if you want to edit or debug the code, see the next section. If you want to help create a package yourself, we have some rough guidance.

Compiling on Linux and OS X

You need two files:

The .xz files are smaller but may require you to install XZ Utils.

SHA1 digests:

272f494544968728dce3495a66070a8ab92cdd00  0ad-r07539-pre-alpha-unix-build.tar.xz
7da77765f6f45f66a3f8e5b6b045fdcb051d2f71  0ad-r07539-pre-alpha-unix-build.tar.bz2
b99a55cb648d976691306406ce23815f231a136b  0ad-r07539-pre-alpha-unix-data.tar.xz  
87849ab8085ea8b9705383377215f3e683a3d38f  0ad-r07539-pre-alpha-unix-data.tar.bz2 

Extract both files to the same location:

# Extract .xz version into the current directory:
tar xvJf 0ad-r07539-pre-alpha-unix-build.tar.xz
tar xvJf 0ad-r07539-pre-alpha-unix-data.tar.xz
# Or, if your tar is older than 1.22:
xz -cd 0ad-r07539-pre-alpha-unix-build.tar.xz | tar xv
xz -cd 0ad-r07539-pre-alpha-unix-data.tar.xz | tar xv
# Or, if you have the .bz2 version:
tar xvjf 0ad-r07539-pre-alpha-unix-build.tar.bz2
tar xvjf 0ad-r07539-pre-alpha-unix-data.tar.bz2

Then follow the build instructions using the files from this release instead of downloading from SVN.
