Installing Force
Force support only Windows platform for developing, and compile the project that you're build. Other platforms and system will be added along with developing.
To quickly install and configure this engine on Windows go to Home page, and download ForceSetup.exe file or to Github Releases page and download latest release.
Force Setup
Download the ForceSetup.exe from Google Drive (ahh, he may complain about viruses, because its .exe file), so ignore that and just download it. In future i will move this ForceSetup to my own server and this will be like official-official.
Open it and install, by default it will be installed to C:\Program Files\Force\Nave. Open the Nave and go to Installs tab.
Then click to Download Force and go to Install Force Editor page.
Here you can choose witch version of Editor to Install. As today Force go with Releases and Previews. Release type of version its pretty stable version at that moment of release, and its recommended to install. But second preview type of versions almost always goes in Debug build (with debug console), and allows users to preview version, check it and if has some major bugs, report about it, if that bugs/problems already was not fixed.
So select proper version for you and click Install.
Force required several components/packages to be installed along. Generally Visual Studio should be installed along to create and compile Force projects (on Windows it required Microsoft Build Engine). If don't need fully integated IDE like Visual Studio, you can select Minimum Build Tools, and it will install only (on Windows: Microsoft Build Engine).
Side note: When Nave finish installing Force, it will download and redirect you to Visual Studio Installer, so follow along to that installer to proper installing selected modules.
Click Install and wait to finish. After finishing installing Force should be appering it Installs list.
Next step what need is create new project, and open it. Force now has two ways to create projects, one of it throw Nave, and second its inside Force itself throw its Startup Window. Second case probably soon be removed. Nevermind.
So lets make one.
