WindowsXP
svn


2) check out gametools repository
   
in the following it is assumed that your repository is located in d:\svn\gametools (not required, just replace your path)

OGRE_PATH: points to directory where ogre.sln is located (i.e., the
directory OGRE), e.g. D:\svn\gametools\OGRE\trunk\ogrenew

copy the directories 

D:\svn\gametools\OGRE\trunk\ogre_dependencies 
D:\svn\gametools\OGRE\trunk\ogre_changes\Ogre1.2 

into the ogrenew directory. 


5) Copy the config files for the demo application (TerrainCulling.exe) into the Ogre release directory:

They are located in D:\svn\gametools\GTP\trunk\Lib\Vis\OnlineCullingCHC\scripts

terrainCulling.cfg: defines the scene and the visibility environment
terrain.cfg: defines the terrain structures for the terrain scene
resources.cfg: adds models and texture definitions to the Ogre resource path
Plugins.cfg: the Plugin_VisibilitySceneManager has to be registered there


6) Set preprocessor flag GTP_VISIBILITY_MODIFIED_OGRE to the example projects you want to use


7) open scripts GTP\trunk\Lib\Vis\GtpVisibility.sln and build all
