You need to get the following packages prior to compiling NaviTrack.  While still experimental, it should work on a properly configured windows environment. Current requirements are:
+
== Make directory: '''navitrack''' ==
  
* Developer studio 8 Visual C++ Express which is free from Microsoft - be sure to install the Platform SDK and follow the ridiculous manual steps to set up the paths (see below).
+
* Create this directory anywhere you want on your machine
** Other releases of visual studio also work (7 and 7.1)
+
* This directory will be the root directory for your NaviTrack
* [http://www.cygwin.com Cygwin] with the following packages
+
* In navitrack, make a new directory '''NaviTrack''' where the source code will be downloaded to  
** svn
+
* In the same directory, create a directory '''NaviTrack-build'''
  
* [http://www.cmake.org CMake (2.4.1 or later)]
+
== Download NaviTrack source code ==
 +
* If you don't '''RapidSVN''' on your machine, download and install it from here: http://www.rapidsvn.org/download/release/0.9.4/
 +
* Run RapidSVN to check out NaviTrack source tree with the following parameters:
 +
** username: ivs
 +
** password: ivs
 +
** URL: https://ariser.uio.no/svn/navitrack/branches/nt-brp
 +
** Destination directory: your-path/navitrack/NaviTrack
