[SOLVED] Building 64-bit LÖVE on windows

Post by yang »

Hi everyone.

I tried to build 64-bit LÖVE executable by following the instructions on the megasource readme.md

Despite being on 64-bit windows, the CMake script decided to create build files for 32-bit platform. I couldn't find anywhere how to specify architecture for building LÖVE. I tried messing about with the CMake config but I'm a total newbie when it comes to build tools especially CMake and couldn't make it work.

Anyone here know how to specify target platform? I'm running 64-bit Windows 10, using CMake 3.7.2.

NEVERMIND! Figured it out.

Basically instead of:

Code: Select all

cmake -G "Visual Studio 12" -H. -Bbuild
You gotta do:

Code: Select all

cmake -G "Visual Studio 12 Win64" -H. -Bbuild
Derp.
