### Building

To initialize the repository don't forget to execute `git submodule update --init` to pull the submodules.
* __Windows__:
1) Open the *.SLN* file.
2) Build the projects in *__BUILD_BEFORE* folder: right-click on every project > *Build*.
3) Press *BUILD* > *Build Solution* or *Rebuild Solution*.
* __Linux & Mac OSX__:
If you want to build with LLVM, then LLVM 3.8 is required.
`cd rpcs3 && cmake CMakeLists.txt && make && cd ../` then run with `cd bin && ./rpcs3`.
If you are on OSX and want to build with llvm don't forget to add `-DLLVM_DIR=...` (or wherever llvm brew was installed) to cmake invocation.
When using GDB, configure it to ignore SIGSEGV signal (`handle SIGSEGV nostop noprint`).
