Time for action — building the Ogre 3D samples

To get a first impression of what Ogre 3D can do, we will build the samples and take a look at them.

  1. Go to the Ogre3D folder.
  2. Open the Ogre3d.sln solution file.
  3. Right-click on the solution and select Build Solution.
  4. Visual Studio should now start building the samples. This might take some time, so get yourself a cup of tea until the compile process is finished.
  5. If everything went well, go into the Ogre3D/bin folder.
  6. Execute the SampleBrowser.exe.
  7. You should see the following on your screen:
