Therein lies Windows, Intel Mac, and Intel Linux binaries. The Linux ones
were build on Ubuntu 6.10, your mileage may vary with other distributions.
Engine? Physics?
What you're looking at is a combination of the Open Dynamics Engine
(ode.org) and Torque Game Engine (garagegames.com). I can't take much
credit for either, but combining the two has been a personal project of
mine for... well, a long time, now.

FAQ
Q: I go to start mission, and am presented with a bunch of choices. Which
do I want?
A: Stronghold
Q: How do I do anything?
A: Hold down C in-game for a little physics UI. It has sensible defaults
set up. Click "Add Rock".
Q: How do I do a little more?
A: Hold down V for some presets. The water chain preset is broken
Q: What do I do now?
A: Run around in the game. Shoot rocks. It's a demo of the physics code
I've been working on, not any kind of real game with goals.
Q: I used the preset KorkChain, but the balls don't seem to follow him
around, as much as getting stuck on the ground
A: In the UI you get holding down C, go into "Contact", and decrease the
"ContactMu" slider. "Mu" is a short word for "Friction".
Q: The mouse is the wrong way up! What sort of backward idiot are you?
A: Open starter.fps/client/scripts/default.bind.cs, scroll down to
this and change the - to a +:
function pitch(%val)
{
$mvPitch -= getMouseAdjustAmount(%val);
}
