Downloads
Currently, precompiled versions of omegalib are available for windows only. You can compile your own version of omegalib on linux or osx following the instructions in build from source
Binary releases are offered for Windows and OSX. The installer will let you customize your install and supports automatic updates.
Binaries are generated from the release branch of omegalib, and include most of the omegalib modules you can find on the omegalib hub. Using the installer you will be able to download just the modules you need. You will also be able to update your install when module updates are released, using the included package manager.
If you want the full feature set of omegalib in an up-to-date version, build from source.
omegalib will work fine on Windows 8 systems without enabling compatibility mode.
If you get a 0xc000007b startup error when you launch orun, you may have to
install an old version of the .Net framework (2.x) on your machine.
After downloading and extracting omegalib, you will probably want to create a
new environment variable called OMEGA_HOME, and point it to the extraction
directory. Omegalib uses this directory to find data, modules and other omegalib
components. If you plan to launch applications directly from this directory,
creating the environment variable is not needed, but won't hurt.
On windows, you also want to add the extracted directory bin folder to your PATH,
or external omegalib applications will not be able to find the omegalib dlls.
