Hey guys,

I'm trying to develop games in Linux and I've gotten SDL and OpenGl setup with my current IDE (Netbeans 6.8 ); however now I require a physics engine (rather than making one myself) and I've heard that ODE is a good one.

So, I downloaded the source and configured and installed the make files and now I'm wondering where the library file is located. I have located the include directory however I cannot seem to locate the library file to include in my projects.

I have run the demos that they have and they all work fine (Although they are in really fast motion for some reason)

Any ideas?
Cheers

The manual (http://opende.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Manual) says, "Look in ode/lib and add the appropriate library search path and file name, depending on which build configuration was used. For instance, ode/lib/DebugSingleDLL and ode_singled.lib." however the lib folder doesn't exist.

Is there something wrong with my package or is this wiki outdated?

I was looking for a good engine as well, does anyone know how to set this one up?
