Compiling Errors.

    I ran scons.py from the git bash and it shows this:

     

     

    $ scons.py
    scons: Reading SConscript files ...
    Checking whether the C compiler works... yes
    Checking whether the C++ compiler works... yes
    Checking if 64 bit... no
    Adding 32 bit compile flags
    Checking for C library mingw32... yes
    Checking for C library ws2_32... yes
    Checking for C library SDLmain... yes
    Checking for C library SDL... yes
    Checking for C header file SDL.h... no
    Checking for C header file SDL/SDL.h... no

    So you do have C:\MinGW\include\SDL.h and C:\MinGW\lib\libSDL.a and files like that? Maybe try scons --clean, this should clear any caches. SCons likes to be kind of stupid and remember the fact that it couldn't find stuff, instead of trying again every time.

    I remember running into this problem a lot when I was starting my mod back on Windows, but I don't remember how I solved it. I'll try to figure out what I did.

    i know it was really sketchy though

    was it --sdl-dir? I removed that option :P. It wasn't supposed to ever be needed anymore, and if it was you have to use slightly more complicated ways but you can get the same result.

    If you have C:\MinGW\include\SDL.h then I don't really know what the problem is ... Are you sure that is exactly the path? Don't know how to check where it is looking for include files, maybe posting config.log on pastebin would help
