Hi and welcome :smile:.
while i was playing with tracker scripts i managed to install Gazelle on windows and i'll share the steps. i've failed many times because of using Apache as a web server so in the guide i'll use another Webserver :top:.
Notes:
- after doing everything you'll not have a fully functional tracker because this guide does not cover to compile/run Gazelle's own xbitt which is for linux. [i still need to learn how to use Cgywin after that maybe i'll succeed again :klatsch_3: and i'll post the result here too OR i will make a linux tut when i know something about linux]
- You cannot add a single torrent :shockkk!:. this is guide is for previewing Gazelle and to prove that Windows can run Gazelle.
- The guide was made inside a virtual pc if you don't want to fill your computer with these V stuff :wink:.
- I've made this tut for SB-Innovation DO NOT COPY IT WITHOUT Permission, appreciate others hard work do NOT steal!! Just refer to SB-Innovation and to this topic thanks :top:
