You need at least these programs to use my game for development purposes:

Java Development Kit 1.6 or higher:

Linux, Solaris and Windows users: here
Mac users: here or here
Others: here or here

Eclipse 3.7 or higher (optional but recommended): here
Subversion (SVN)

Command line users: here
Eclipse users: here

ANT: here (already supported and bundled with major IDEs like Eclipse and Netbeans)

These are the URLs of the SVN repositories for all versions:

http://svn.code.sf.net/p/tuer/code/alpha/ (abandoned alpha version that uses my own engine)
http://svn.code.sf.net/p/tuer/code/tuer/ (abandoned pre-beta version that uses JMonkeyEngine 2.0)
http://svn.code.sf.net/p/tuer/code/pre_beta/ (current pre-beta version that uses Ardor3D)

Follow one of these methods:

In command line, follow these steps:

enter this to get the source code: svn checkout URL_of_the_SVN_repository
enter this to build the project: ant build
enter this to run the game: ant run-tuer

In Eclipse (version 3.6 or higher), with Subclipse (version 1.1.4 or higher), follow these steps:

Right click in the package area
Select "New" -> "Other..."
Expand the "SVN" directory
Select "Checkout Projects from SVN"
Click on "Next"
Select "Create a new repository location"
Click on "Next"
Enter the URL of the SVN repository in the "URL" text field
Click on "Next"
Select the topmost folder
Click on "Finish"
Go to the menu "Window" -> "Show view" -> "Ant"
(not necessary in the latest pre-beta version) Enable the Eclipse builder by following these steps:

Drag and drop the file build.xml into the ANT view
Double-click on the "setup-eclipse" target in this view

(mandatory) Double-click on the "build" target in this view to build the project
Double-click on the "run-tuer" target in this view to run the game

In Netbeans (version 6.9.1 or higher), follow these steps:

Go to the "Team" menu -> Subversion -> Checkout...
Enter the URL of the SVN repository as "Repository URL"
Click on "Next"
Click on "Finish"
Wait for a while
A popup entitled "Checkout Completed" appears, click on "Create Project..."
Select "Java Project with Existing Sources"
Click on "Next"
Enter a project name and click on "Next"
In the "Source Package Folders" section, click on "Add Folder..." and select the only directory
Click on "Next"
Click on "Finish"
In the project tab, select the "Libraries" node -> "Add JAR/Folder" and select all JARs in all subdirectories of the "lib" directory
Go to the project tab -> "Source packages" -> "default package" -> build.xml -> build -> "Run Target" to build the project
Go to the project tab -> "Source packages" -> "default package" -> build.xml -> run-tuer -> "Run Target" to run the game

In other IDEs, make your own way with them, I have no time to waste with proprietary IDEs and IDEs with a confidential audience

TUER requires less than 32 MB (the latest version may require more than 64 MB) but some programs used to precompute its data require 1 GB and even 2 GB. Do not try to build the game from the source code if your computer does not have enough RAM. Use the VM argument "-Xmx" if a particular map needs more memory.
