Downloading the book's CryENGINE sample installation
For this book, we will be using a custom CryENGINE sample as a base for learning the workings of the engine. Most exercises in the book depend on this sample; however, the working knowledge you get from this can be applied to the default CryENGINE Free SDK (available at http://www.crydev.net).
To download the sample installation, follow these steps:
- Visit https://www.packtpub.com/code_download/15089 in order to download a compressed archive containing the sample.
- Once downloaded, extract the contents of the archive to a folder of your choice. For the sake of the example, we will be extracting it to
C:\Crytek\CryENGINE-Programming-Sample.
