how to setup moai 1.5 stable?

The links in moai are broken, so I went to github and downloaded the files as a zipped folder.

https://github.com/moai/moai-dev

Now it says I need to set the environment variables to 

set MOAI_BIN=<install_path>¥moai-dev     ¥release¥win32¥host-sdl¥bin
set MOAI_CONFIG=<install_path>¥moai-dev¥samples¥config

I set up everything as above, however when i try to run a sample it says moai-bin link isn't correct. I checked the moai sdk folder, it doesn't even contain moai.exe. What should I do ??

Thanks.

It seems you have downloaded source release and maybe did not build moai binary. You can just download moai binary release which is available for linux, osx and windows. After unpacking point MOAI_BIN to proper moai binary.

I am not on Windows. But the path separators in the README are wrong, so just checking the obvious, did you try setting the environment vars like so:

set MOAI_BIN=<install_path>\moai-dev\release\win32\host-sdl\bin
set MOAI_CONFIG=<install_path>\moai-dev\samples\config

And then running:

cd moai-dev
.\bin\build-win.bat

And make sure you have all the Windows dependencies installed, like Visual Studio? Check this list: https://github.com/moai/moai-dev#setup.
