Download & Build Instructions
Chipmunk
Chipmunk, Python API & Examples
Box2d
- svn co https://box2d.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/box2d box2d
- Download and apply this patch: http://pippin.gimp.org/tmp/box2d-build-diff.txt
- run 'make'
If it fails with a suggestion to use the -fPIC flag, add it to Source/Makefile, line 13. So it looks like this:
CXXFLAGS= -g -O2 -fPIC
Phun
