<h1>How to build CARLA on Windows</h1>
|
||||
|
||||
!!! important
|
||||
!!! note
|
||||
We are working on an automated build system for Windows, you can follow
|
||||
the progress at [issue #21](https://github.com/carla-simulator/carla/issues/21).
|
||||
|
||||
Coming soon...
|
||||
# Manual Installation
|
||||
## Necessary software:
|
||||
- [Git](https://git-scm.com/downloads)
|
||||
- [Make](http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/downlinks/make-bin-zip.php)
|
||||
- [Cmake](https://cmake.org/download/)
|
||||
|
||||
!!! important
|
||||
Be sure that these programs are added to your path, so you can use them from your command prompt.
|
||||
|
||||
Also:
|
||||
|
||||
- [Unreal Engine](https://www.unrealengine.com/download) (v4.18.x)
|
||||
- [Visual Studio](https://www.visualstudio.com/downloads/) (2017 preferably)
|
||||
|
||||
### Environment Setup
|
||||
In order to build CARLA you must **enable the x64 Visual C++ Toolset**.
|
||||
I recommend to use this environment for everything you do in this tutorial.
|
||||
|
||||
You have different options:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Recomended:** Use [`Visual Studio x64 Native Tools Command Prompt`](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/framework/tools/developer-command-prompt-for-vs). Just press the `Win` button and search for `x64`, because the name of this Command Prompt can change depending on the lenguage you have installed Visual Studio.
|
||||
- [Enable a 64-Bit Visual C++ Toolset on the Command Line](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/x4d2c09s.aspx) (the instructions will depend on the version of VS that you have).
|
||||
|
||||
### Clone the repository
|
||||
Go to the path you want to install CARLA and type in your prompt:
|
||||
|
||||
```cmd
|
||||
git clone https://github.com/carla-simulator/carla.git
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Download the assets
|
||||
Download the assets from the version you need. Build the download link with `https://drive.google.com/open?id=` followed by the choosen hash that you will find in [`Util/ContentVersions.txt`](https://github.com/carla-simulator/carla/blob/master/Util/ContentVersions.txt).
|
||||
|
||||
Create the folder `Content` in `Unreal/CarlaUE4/` and unzip the content you just downloaded here.
|
||||
|
||||
## Dependencies
|
||||
Download and build **for win64**:
|
||||
|
||||
- Boost 1.64
|
||||
- Protobuf 3.3.2
|
||||
|
||||
### Building Boost for CARLA
|
||||
_Under construction_
|
||||
|
||||
Follow the official documentatio to compile boost.
|
||||
Put the generated binaries in `Util/Build/boost-install`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Building Protobuf for CARLA
|
||||
#### From our batch file
|
||||
Just use [this batch](https://gist.github.com/marcgpuig/57946f9b684f64e5f08487089c437ea3) script, it will download and compile a ready-to-use version. Put it in`Util/Build` and just run it.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Manually
|
||||
If something goes wrong, just follow the protobuf [cmake tutorials](https://github.com/google/protobuf/blob/master/cmake/README.md), but add these cmake arguments:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
|
||||
-Dprotobuf_BUILD_TESTS=OFF
|
||||
-DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_RELEASE=/MD
|
||||
-Dprotobuf_MSVC_STATIC_RUNTIME=OFF
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Put the generated binaries in `Util/Build/protobuf-install`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Compiling CARLA server
|
||||
With your Visual Studio propmt, navigate into the `carla` folder where you cloned the repo with
|
||||
|
||||
```cmd
|
||||
cd carla
|
||||
```
|
||||
and use:
|
||||
|
||||
```cmd
|
||||
path\to\carla> make
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If you have done everything alright, **carla server** must be compiled successfully in `Util/Build/carlaserver-build`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Launch Unreal Engine
|
||||
Double click `Unreal/CarlaUE4/CarlaUE4.uproject` and it will ask you to rebuild:
|
||||
|
||||
UE4Editor-CarlaUE4.dll
|
||||
UE4Editor-Carla.dll
|
||||
|
||||
Agree.
|
||||
|
||||
## Compilation failures
|
||||
If there are problems generating the dlls, right click on `CarlaUE4.uproject` and select `Generate Visual Studio project files`, so you can try compiling from the Visual Studio Editor and check the errors.
|
||||
|
||||
## Recompiling
|
||||
You must delete the following folders to completely rebuild your project:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Unreal/CarlaUE4/Binaries
|
||||
Unreal/CarlaUE4/Intermediate
|
||||
Unreal/CarlaUE4/Plugins/Carla/Binaries
|
||||
Unreal/CarlaUE4/Plugins/Carla/Intermediate
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Then you can clear the old intermediate files for carla if you have some troubles with, then compile the CARLA server again
|
||||
|
||||
```cmd
|
||||
path\to\carla> make clean & make
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can do it more automatically with your prompt in `carla` folder:
|
||||
|
||||
```cmd
|
||||
path\to\carla> rmdir /q /s Unreal/CarlaUE4/Binaries Unreal/CarlaUE4/Intermediate Unreal/CarlaUE4/Saved Unreal/CarlaUE4/Plugins/Carla/Binaries Unreal/CarlaUE4/Plugins/Carla/Intermediate
|
||||
path\to\carla> make clean
|
||||
path\to\carla> make
|
||||
path\to\carla> Unreal/CarlaUE4/CarlaUE4.uproject
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
