please try 4.00 |

I was able to install using the build instructions from here.
That should go in the README so it's more clear how to build from source. cmake doesn't work for 4.00. I was planning on making another Issue for that. |

It should work if you just use the cmake gui.
I never used the command line.

cd newton-dynamics mkdir build && cd build cmake -DNEWTON_DEMOS_SANDBOX=ON
.. && make

For the record, I ran into this ticket, searching for an answer to the same issue occurring on 4.00. This is using cmake on linux as well. Not sure why it's trying to link directory itself. Several other cmake projects are working fine (ogre, my own project, bullet physics, etc), so it's probably a configuration issue in Newton. Some notes:
End up creating make files in the |

I think it is creation the make file in tge same source directory.
I set so that cmake create a make file, a project or a solution in a
separate folder.
Try that in cmake gui.
Also why don't yo use newton4 which is much better?

I'm attempting to compile v3.14 on Linux, I get a linking error. It's attempting to create a symbolic link of applications/media with itself.
