PS: FG has rebased the repository since this video, which removed the FBX SDK due to license restrictions. This means you currently will have to hunt down the FBX SDK 2012 version to successfully compile the engine.
Unless you use our own fork of the earlier repo ;) Link at the bottom

I use Arch Linux 5.8.8 in this video, with Cinnamon 4.6.7.

Here's that neat command I used towards the end to recreate symlinks (credits to Robert):
for f in `file * | grep ASCII | cut -d: -f1`; do ln -fs `cut -d' ' -f2 $f` $f; done

We have a fork of the main repository here, where we have updated compile instructions for Windows as well, plus fixed or added some neat stuff, check it out:
