Building WoW Model Viewer is pretty simple : you need SDK to have all required third app / libraries and application sources
Wow Model Viewer SDK
Download SDK here => (provide link to sdk)
Unizp it in folder of your choice
Launch wmv_sdk.bat by double clicking on it, it will open a prompt like this one (in my example, I have unzipped SDK in c:\wmv_sdk)
You are now ready to compile WoW Model Viewer
WoW Model Viewer
Get application sources from Bitbucket : https://bitbucket.org/wowmodelviewer/wowmodelviewer
You can use either
- mercurial clone (prefered method if you plan to do regular update from central repo)
- archived source download (prefered method if you do not plan to update sources on a regular basis) https://bitbucket.org/wowmodelviewer/wowmodelviewer/downloads
In following example, let's consider sources are available in c:\wowmodelviewer (adapt examples depending on your own location)
in prompt opened by SDK, move to your source location
cd YOUR_SOURCE_LOCATION
Create a build directory (cmake recommands what is called "out of sources compilation), and move in
mkdir CMakeBuild cd CMakeBuild
Launch CMake generation
cmake -G"MinGW Makefiles" ..\src
