#### Download
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/minetest/minetest_game.git games/minetest_game
+Download IrrlichtMt to `lib/irrlichtmt`, it will be used to satisfy the IrrlichtMt dependency that way:
+
+ git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/minetest/irrlicht.git lib/irrlichtmt
+
Download source, without using Git:
wget https://github.com/minetest/minetest/archive/master.tar.gz
mv minetest_game-master minetest_game
cd ..
+Download IrrlichtMt, without using Git:
+
+ cd lib/
+ wget https://github.com/minetest/irrlicht/archive/master.tar.gz
+ tar xf master.tar.gz
+ mv irrlicht-master irrlichtmt
+ cd ..
+
#### Build
Build a version that runs directly from the source directory:
- You can disable the client build by specifying `-DBUILD_CLIENT=FALSE`.
- You can select between Release and Debug build by `-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=<Debug or Release>`.
- Debug build is slower, but gives much more useful output in a debugger.
-- If you build a bare server you don't need to have the Irrlicht library installed.
+- If you build a bare server you don't need to have the Irrlicht or IrrlichtMt library installed.
- In that case use `-DIRRLICHT_INCLUDE_DIR=/some/where/irrlicht/include`.
+- IrrlichtMt can also be installed somewhere that is not a standard install path.
+ - In that case use `-DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/path/to/install_prefix`
+ - The path must be set so that `$(CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH)/lib/cmake/IrrlichtMt` exists
+ or that `$(CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH)` is the path of an IrrlichtMt build folder.

### Requirements
It is highly recommended to use vcpkg as package manager.
-#### a) Using vcpkg to install dependencies
-
After you successfully built vcpkg you can easily install the required libraries:
```powershell
-vcpkg install zlib curl[winssl] openal-soft libvorbis libogg sqlite3 freetype luajit gmp jsoncpp --triplet x64-windows
+vcpkg install zlib zstd curl[winssl] openal-soft libvorbis libogg sqlite3 freetype luajit gmp jsoncpp --triplet x64-windows
```
-- **Note that you currently need to build irrlicht on your own**
+- **Don't forget about IrrlichtMt.** The easiest way is to clone it to `lib/irrlichtmt` as described in the Linux section.
- `curl` is optional, but required to read the serverlist, `curl[winssl]` is required to use the content store.
- `openal-soft`, `libvorbis` and `libogg` are optional, but required to use sound.
- `freetype` is optional, it allows true-type font rendering.
Use `--triplet` to specify the target triplet, e.g. `x64-windows` or `x86-windows`.
-#### b) Compile the dependencies on your own
-
-This is outdated and not recommended. Follow the instructions on https://dev.minetest.net/Build_Win32_Minetest_including_all_required_libraries#VS2012_Build
-
### Compile Minetest
#### a) Using the vcpkg toolchain and CMake GUI
```
Make sure that the right compiler is selected and the path to the vcpkg toolchain is correct.
-#### c) Using your own compiled libraries
-
-**This is outdated and not recommended**
