Juestblast007: i don't think so but could be interesting to try, however we are msvc and gcc development on windows is behind12:42
Juestyou'd need to use a old mingw-w6412:42
Juestor the original mingw12:42
Juestwhat is the minimum version of the dependencies that bzflag builds with ?12:42
blast007no idea12:57
blast007but, I was thinking about using CMake along with mingw's cmake build commands, so it would build the dependencies as well. Just out of curiosity, if I can get it to work.13:04
blast007I want to get the CMake build finished anyways, so this would be a possible byproduct of that work.13:04
blast007Would also be funny/neat if I could end up building the Windows version, including the installer, from Linux. :)13:06

Juestblast007: definitely possible to crosscompile yes, but mingw builds are going to perform slightly worse than msvc in runtime performance18:19
Juestwish i could build bzflag with vs 2015 18:19
