Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all

CMake Error: CMake was unable to find a build program corresponding to "Visual Studio 6".  CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM is not set.  You probably need to select a different build tool.
CMake Error: Could not find cmake module file:C:/Users/Toms/DIR/minetest-build/CMakeFiles/CMakeCCompiler.cmake

No, you can't put your own name at the top, unless you want to do some code editing. (which I don't know how to do)

Actualy i want to do some coding thats why i am asking in which file do i need to edit that.But for now i want to know ho do i compile all this.

EDIT: I found where to change game title but i still need to compile al that.so i am downloading cygwin compilator i hope it will work.
