This directory contains pre-compilated libraries (for msvc 2008), but you can re-compile them if you want.
Here the compilation instruction for each dependency.
The number between the parenthesis is the version of the dll that as been used for pre-built dependencies.

******************************
*        ZLib (1.2.5)        *
******************************
Dowload from http://www.zlib.net
Unzip files in "yourScolpath/dependencies/zlib-1.2.5" directory for example.
Delete the "zconf.h" file.
Run cmake.
select the directory "yourScolpath/dependencies/zlib-1.2.5/build" as build dir.
Uncheck the BUILD_SHARED_LIBS option.
Change the CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX to "yourScolpath/dependencies/zlib"
Configure, generate solution, and compile the library, in debug and release mode.
Do not forget to generate the "Install" project, or your "yourScolpath/dependencies/zlib" will not be updated!
Done!

******************************
*      lib png (1.4.4)       *
******************************
Zlib must be compiled.
Dowload from http://www.libpng.org/pub/png/libpng.html
Unzip files in "yourScolpath/dependencies/lpng144" directory for example.
Run cmake.
select the directory "yourScolpath/dependencies/lpng144/build" as build dir.
Change the CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX to "yourScolpath/dependencies/libpng"
Verify that only PNG_ARG and PNG_STATIC options are selected.
Configure, generate solution, and compile the library, in debug and release mode, then generate install project.
Rename "libpng14_static.lib" to "libpng14.lib" and "libpng14_staticd.lib" to "libpng14d.lib" (in "yourScolpath/dependencies/libpng") in order to cmake FindPng script to work.
Done!

******************************
*       lib jpeg (8b)        *
******************************
Dowload from http://www.ijg.org/
Unzip files in "yourScolpath/dependencies/libjpeg" directory.
For vc10, Run the following command line: "NMAKE /f makefile.vc setup-v10" (libjpeg do not supply vs2008 solution anymore...).
For vc9, uncompress "jpeg-8b-vs2008.zip" and use the sln there.
Launch the solution file (sln) and build the release target.
Done!

******************************
*          Ogre 3D           *
*    (V1.8 trunk version)    *
******************************
Download Ogre's dependencies from "https://sourceforge.net/projects/ogre/files/ogre-dependencies-vc%2B%2B/1.7/OgreDependencies_MSVC_20101231.zip/download".
Go to "yourScolpath/dependencies/Ogre/Sources", and unzip the dependencies.
Go to "yourScolpath/dependencies/Ogre/Sources/Dependencies/src", open the sln file corresponding to your msvc version, and compile in debug and release mode (Batch build/All).
Run CMake.
Set "yourScolpath/dependencies/Ogre/Sources" as your source dir and "yourScolpath/dependencies/Ogre/Build/static" as your build dir, then click "configure".
Change CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX to "yourScolpath/dependencies/Ogre/sdk/static".
You can disable "OGRE_BUILD_SAMPLE" for a faster build.
Check the "OGRE_STATIC" option, and make sure that "Threading support" is disabled (incompatibility with SO3Engine).
Make sure that "OGRE_INSTALL_DEPENDENCIES" is checked, otherwise libs that depends of Ogre (like skyx and hydrax) may not found Ogre's dependencies!
Then hit "configure" a second time.
Your cmake configuration must be like this:
>> Build type:                      static
>> Threading support:               none
>> Use double precision:            disabled
>> Allocator type:                  nedmalloc (pooling)
>> STL containers use allocator:    enabled
>> Strings use allocator:           disabled
>> Memory tracker (debug):          disabled
>> Memory tracker (release):        disabled
>> Use new script compilers:        enabled
>> Use Boost:                       enabled
Then, click "Generate".
Go to "yourScolpath/dependencies/Ogre/Build/static", open the MSVC solution file, and build all (Debug / Release). Once all is builded, click "Generate" on "INSTALL" project.
Done!
>> Developer remark: to update Ogre's sources files, do not direct download files to "yourScolpath/dependencies/Ogre/Sources" with HG tools. Instead, Clone the Mercurial repository to a new directory (for example "D:\OgreTrunk"), open
a command console, go to "D:\OgreTrunk" and run the folowing command: "hg archive %SCOL_DEPENDENCIES_PATH%\Ogre\Sources"

******************************
*       Hydrax (0.5.5)       *
******************************
No download needed, custom version of Hydrax.
Ogre must be compiled first, using static linking, and the OGRE_HOME environment variable must be defined too (check setWindowsSearchPaths.bat).
Run cmake
Set "yourScolpath/dependencies/hydrax/Sources" as your source dir and "yourScolpath/dependencies/hydrax/Build/static" as your build dir.
Clic on "Add Entry", select a bool value, name it "OGRE_STATIC", and check it to "TRUE" value.
Clic "configure", and change CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX to "yourScolpath/dependencies/hydrax/sdk/static".
Disable "HYDRAX_BUILD_SAMPLE" cause samples are not supported while building statically. Then hit "configure" a second time, and finally, click "Generate".
Go to "yourScolpath/dependencies/hydrax/Build/static", open the MSVC solution file, and build all (Debug / Release). Once all is builded, click "Generate" on "INSTALL" project.
