Unity3D MasterServer Installation on Ubuntu

Sunday, March 3, 2013

1. Download the MasterServer from http://www.unity3d.com/master-server/index.html

2. Make sure you have installed the "ncurses" library. If not you this code to install it,
sudo apt-get install libncurses5-dev

3. Extract and change the directory to the extracted MasterServer directory

4. Edit the Makefile, line 90 (for the facilitator) - move "$(CFLAGS)" to the very end of the line. (Thanks for this link for suggesting this change: http://forum.unity3d.com/threads/143680-Custom-Master-Server)

5. Open the terminal change to the MasterServer directory. Type and enter "make".

6. Type and enter "./MasterServer -d"; -d is to run the process as a daemon.
