[fpc-pascal] [Announcement] Castle Game Engine 4.0.0 release for FPC game developers

[Victor Matuzenko]

Hi,

I have tried to compile it under Windows XP with «make all», and got the 
errors:

fpc fpmake.pp

./fpmake
Start building package castle-game-engine for target i386-win32.
The installer encountered the following error:

I downloaded archive castle_game_engine-4.0.0-src.zip from website:

C:\private\downloads>ls -la castle_game_engine-4.0.0-src.zip

What's wrong?
