Hi all,
I'm looking if somebody knows how to compile DNT.  I downloaded via git and saw this readme.

1) Source-Code Distribution

   a) LINUX, BSD, *NIX

   To "install" DNT, decompact the tar.bz2, go to the directory
"dnt",  run   ./configure ,   run   "make"   and,   optionally,
"make install".

   Example:

   farrer@anamabeka:~/$ tar -xvjf dnt.tar.bz2
   farrer@anamabeka:~/$ cd dnt
   farrer@anamabeka:~/dnt/$ ./configure
   farrer@anamabeka:~/dnt/$ make
   farrer@anamabeka:~/dnt/$ sudo make install

Now when you get the tarball you have a nice folder/directory named 'dnt' but if you do check out via git you get the following files and directories. 

~/games/dccnitghtmare$ ll -h

Now can somebody help/guide/tell me if there is anyway to try and compile it (even if it fails to comply for some reason how to go about it).

The README is not much enlightening. I ask on the fora as quodop has already got a resource request thread happening and I don't wanna jump on that thread.

For people interested to get the repo just do :-

git clone git://dccnitghtmare.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/dccnitghtmare/dccnitghtmare (Be careful though because the repo is around 800 MB) so make sure you have plenty of space.

After that simply do git pull to get updates on the game/game-engine.
