This page is about compiling Luanti for desktop platforms. For compiling Luanti for Android, see Android.

Cross-compilation

To compile a win32 version of Luanti in Linux with MinGW you can use the build script in utils/buildbot/buildwin32.sh.

To compile a win64 version of Luanti in Linux with MinGW you can use the build script in utils/buildbot/buildwin64.sh.

If you have errors during cross compilation related to std::thread and std::mutex, this is due to mingw-w64 being incorrectly configured for cross compilation.

To fix the errors, use the command:

For 64-bit builds: sudo update-alternatives --config x86_64-w64-mingw32-g++

For 32-bit Ubuntu Builds: sudo update-alternatives --config i686-w64-mingw32-g++

For 32-bit Debian Builds: sudo update-alternatives --config i586-w64-mingw32-g++

When provided with a prompt for which version to select, please choose "posix". Then retry the buildwin32.sh or buildwin64.sh
