Since xmoto 0.2.5, Visual Studio c++ is no more required. You can build X-Moto from free software. You can build xmoto.exe from windows or even from GNU/Linux with cross-compilation.

This howto has been made under Ubuntu, but it's easy to adapt it to your distribution.

Prerequites

Install mingw

sudo apt-get install mingw32 mingw32-binutils mingw32-runtime

Install libs headers and objects

The required files to compile are available on internet on the website of each library. However, to make it easier, a pack is available on the xmoto cvs.

cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@xmoto.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/xmoto export -r HEAD xmoto/mingw_dev.zip
mv xmoto/mingw_dev.zip ~
cd /usr/i586-mingw32msvc
unzip ~/mingw_dev.zip
rm ~/mingw_dev.zip

Build from GNU/Linux

tar jxf xmoto-x.y.z.tar.bz2
cd xmoto-x.y.z
./configure_mingw_from_linux.sh
make
i586-mingw32msvc-strip src/xmoto.exe

You can found xmoto.exe into the src dir. To get the dll required to play xmoto :

cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@xmoto.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/xmoto export -r HEAD xmoto/mingw_lib.zip

Build from Windows
