|   | # Running From Source
 | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | If you just want to play and there is a compiled version available on the | ||
|  | [Archipelago releases page](https://github.com/ArchipelagoMW/Archipelago/releases), | ||
|  | use that version. These steps are for developers or platforms without compiled releases available. | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | ## General
 | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | What you'll need: | ||
|  |  * Python 3.8.7 or newer | ||
|  |    * pip (Depending on platform may come included) | ||
|  |  * A C compiler | ||
|  |    * possibly optional, read OS-specific sections | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | Then run any of the starting point scripts, like Generate.py, and the included ModuleUpdater should prompt to install or update the | ||
|  | required modules and after pressing enter proceed to install everything automatically. | ||
|  | After this, you should be able to run the programs. | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | ## Windows
 | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | Recommended steps | ||
|  |  * Download and install a "Windows installer (64-bit)" from the [Python download page](https://www.python.org/downloads) | ||
|  |  * Download and install full Visual Studio from | ||
|  |    [Visual Studio Downloads](https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/) | ||
|  |    or an older "Build Tools for Visual Studio" from | ||
|  |    [Visual Studio Older Downloads](https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/older-downloads/). | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  |    * Refer to [Windows Compilers on the python wiki](https://wiki.python.org/moin/WindowsCompilers) for details | ||
|  |    * This step is optional. Pre-compiled modules are pinned on | ||
|  |      [Discord in #archipelago-dev](https://discord.com/channels/731205301247803413/731214280439103580/905154456377757808) | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  |  * It is recommended to use [PyCharm IDE](https://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/) | ||
|  |  * Run Generate.py which will prompt installation of missing modules, press enter to confirm | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | ## macOS
 | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | Refer to [Guide to Run Archipelago from Source Code on macOS](../worlds/generic/docs/mac_en.md). | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | ## Optional: A Link to the Past Enemizer
 | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | Only required to generate seeds that include A Link to the Past with certain options enabled. You will receive an | ||
|  | error if it is required. | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | You can get the latest Enemizer release at [Enemizer Github releases](https://github.com/Ijwu/Enemizer/releases). | ||
|  | It should be dropped as "EnemizerCLI" into the root folder of the project. Alternatively, you can point the Enemizer | ||
|  | setting in host.yaml at your Enemizer executable. | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | ## Optional: SNI
 | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | SNI is required to use SNIClient. If not integrated into the project, it has to be started manually. | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | You can get the latest SNI release at [SNI Github releases](https://github.com/alttpo/sni/releases). | ||
|  | It should be dropped as "SNI" into the root folder of the project. Alternatively, you can point the sni setting in | ||
|  | host.yaml at your SNI folder. |
