Building External Dependencies

True Reality v0.2-Dev Dependencies List

For best results, build the dependencies in the order they are listed. Some of them depend on the ones that were build before them.

First, Setup all the TR Environmental Variables

Note:
Our Ext folder is on D:/Development/TrueReality/Ext Yours will be somewhere else, so you will need to adjust accordingly.
We suggest placing the Ext folder in your TR directory, the same place where you are pointing with %TR_ROOT%. This document will assume you placed the Ext folder in %TR_ROOT%\Ext
