## Compiling
First install all the necessary dependencies:
```bash
pacman -S git mingw-w64-ucrt-x86_64-{gcc,cmake,ninja,curl-winssl,libpng,libjpeg-turbo,freetype,libogg,libvorbis,sqlite3,openal,zstd,gettext,luajit}

If you have an existing MSYS2 install that has been dormant for a while without updates, you might run into issues trying to install or update packages as the keyring is outdated. See [this section](https://www.msys2.org/docs/updating/#potential-issues) on the MSYS2 website on how to solve this.
### Building 32-bit
If you want to build a 32-bit version of Minetest you would want to use the MINGW32 environment (grey background).
If you want to build a 32-bit version of Minetest you would want to use the CLANG32 environment (light orange background).
When installing dependencies, use the `mingw-w64-i686-` prefix used for MINGW32 packages instead of `mingw-w64-ucrt-x86_64-`.
When installing dependencies, use the `mingw-w64-clang-i686-` prefix used for CLANG32 packages instead of `mingw-w64-clang-x86_64-`.
### Graphics is broken in a VM
If you're doing this inside of a VM and you want to test the executable but get graphics issues due to a lack of hardware acceleration, you can try downloading the Mesa software renderer as a DLL.
