 '''In the following, we'll call this directory {{{c:\<msys-homedir>\}}} to make things shorter.'''

+Note: MSYS installs two shortcuts (by default in {{{Start/Programs/MinGW/MSYS/}}}): 1. "MSYS" (black background; an extension of window's cmd.exe) and 2. "MSYS (rxvt)" (yellow background; a more elaborate shell). We recommend the rxvt version, because it can be resized to full-screen, but Orxonox works with both. (Additional note: The sortcut on the desktop links to the worse version.)

 Make sure you have installed OpenAL, which might not be shipped with Windows. Download and install it from [http://connect.creativelabs.com/openal/Downloads/oalinst.zip here]. You can compile and run Orxonox without OpenAL, but no sound will be played.
