|
=================
|
|
|
|
Since XSENS software is stupidly expensive and restrictive, we've written this piece of software to send
|
|
network packets to Unreal Engine. It cuts out the need for running MVN Animate Pro (which costs thousands
|
|
of dollars a year).
|
|
|
|
Windows installation
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
1. [Install the Rust programming language compiler](https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install).
|
|
On Windows, you'll probably want 64-bit for modern machines.
|
|
|
|
2. The Rust compiler will need Microsoft's C++ compiler and linker.
|
|
[This Microsoft guide](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/dev-environment/rust/setup) explains how
|
|
to install support along with Visual Studio.
|
|
|
|
Running the program on Windows
|
|
------------------------------
|
|
|
|
1. Open `cmd` (command line) or `PowerShell.exe`.
|
|
|
|
2. Use `cd` ("change directory") to find the location of the program.
|
|
`dir` can be used to see the current directory contents.
|
|
|
|
3. Type `cargo run` to run the program in debug mode (fast compile, slow execution).
|
|
Ctrl-C will kill the program without needing to close the terminal.
|
|
|
|
4. Type `cargo build --release` to build a production `.exe` binary file that will run
|
|
six times faster. The exe file will be under the subdirectory `target/release/`.
