Contents
System Requirements
This game requires the following for both development and released versions:
- Intel-based PC with at least 1.0 GHz
- Windows XP or Windows Vista (it has been reported that Macintosh systems running Boot Camp can run the released build, but development must be done on a Windows machine)
- Graphics card with Pixel Shader 1.0+ (any computer that can run Windows Vista meets this requirement)
Download and Install the Software
- Visual C# Express Edition - As of Oct 2007, development is in Version 1 but Version 2 may also work
- XNA Game Studio Express
- Tortoise SVN - or other Subversion Client
Download the Code
- Obtain a Subversion username and password from a Subversion Admin (Matthew or August). The username will be used to track your changes to the code repository and the password will be known by all Subversion Admins, so don't use your "real" password!
- Checkout the Repository
- Create a new directory called "Autism Collaborative" (or something else if you're a rebel)
- Right click on the folder and select TortsoiseSVN->Checkout... from the popup menu
- In the URL of repository field, enter http://www.autismcollaborative.org/autism_collaborative
- Click OK
- Register the code dependencies
- Browse to Autism Collaborative\Dependencies
