# Running From Source
|
||
|
|
||
|
If you just want to play and there is a compiled version available on the
|
||
|
[Archipelago releases page](https://github.com/ArchipelagoMW/Archipelago/releases),
|
||
|
use that version. These steps are for developers or platforms without compiled releases available.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## General
|
||
|
|
||
|
What you'll need:
|
||
|
* Python 3.8.7 or newer
|
||
|
* pip (Depending on platform may come included)
|
||
|
* A C compiler
|
||
|
* possibly optional, read OS-specific sections
|
||
|
|
||
|
Then run any of the starting point scripts, like Generate.py, and the included ModuleUpdater should prompt to install or update the
|
||
|
required modules and after pressing enter proceed to install everything automatically.
|
||
|
After this, you should be able to run the programs.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Windows
|
||
|
|
||
|
Recommended steps
|
||
|
* Download and install a "Windows installer (64-bit)" from the [Python download page](https://www.python.org/downloads)
|
||
|
* Download and install full Visual Studio from
|
||
|
[Visual Studio Downloads](https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/)
|
||
|
or an older "Build Tools for Visual Studio" from
|
||
|
[Visual Studio Older Downloads](https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/older-downloads/).
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Refer to [Windows Compilers on the python wiki](https://wiki.python.org/moin/WindowsCompilers) for details
|
||
|
* This step is optional. Pre-compiled modules are pinned on
|
||
|
[Discord in #archipelago-dev](https://discord.com/channels/731205301247803413/731214280439103580/905154456377757808)
|
||
|
|
||
|
* It is recommended to use [PyCharm IDE](https://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/)
|
||
|
* Run Generate.py which will prompt installation of missing modules, press enter to confirm
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
## macOS
|
||
|
|
||
|
Refer to [Guide to Run Archipelago from Source Code on macOS](../worlds/generic/docs/mac_en.md).
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Optional: A Link to the Past Enemizer
|
||
|
|
||
|
Only required to generate seeds that include A Link to the Past with certain options enabled. You will receive an
|
||
|
error if it is required.
|
||
|
|
||
|
You can get the latest Enemizer release at [Enemizer Github releases](https://github.com/Ijwu/Enemizer/releases).
|
||
|
It should be dropped as "EnemizerCLI" into the root folder of the project. Alternatively, you can point the Enemizer
|
||
|
setting in host.yaml at your Enemizer executable.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Optional: SNI
|
||
|
|
||
|
SNI is required to use SNIClient. If not integrated into the project, it has to be started manually.
|
||
|
|
||
|
You can get the latest SNI release at [SNI Github releases](https://github.com/alttpo/sni/releases).
|
||
|
It should be dropped as "SNI" into the root folder of the project. Alternatively, you can point the sni setting in
|
||
|
host.yaml at your SNI folder.
