Just go to the folder /basic3d/core or /vu0 or whatever (going to the main /basic3d/ directory doesn't help much) or the /vu1/blow/ folder and type 'make' to make it. It knows to use the file called 'Makefile' in the current directory, and will compile everything needed. Then type 'make run' to execute it. In fact, you may just be able to type 'make run' and it should compile everything and run it, but the forum people all said type 'make' first. Hit Ctrl+C to quit. Another way to run is to type './main'. If you do it this way, you may be able to add options like -PAL (I think that's the way the option goes). I'm not sure if you'll need to or not. Check the code for the options (main.c). HTH, Rikki
