## How to build
|
||||
# Obtaining source code
|
||||
|
||||
### CMake as most universal way
|
||||
Either clone the repository via [git](`https://git-scm.com/downloads`) or just download ZIP via **Code** button on github. The first option is more preferable as it also allows you to search through the repo history, switch between branches and clone the vgui submodule.
|
||||
|
||||
mkdir build && cd build
|
||||
cmake ../
|
||||
make
|
||||
To clone the repository with git type in Git Bash (on Windows) or in terminal (on Unix-like operating systems):
|
||||
|
||||
Crosscompiling using mingw:
|
||||
```
|
||||
git clone --recursive https://github.com/FWGS/hlsdk-xash3d
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
mkdir build-mingw && cd build-mingw
|
||||
TOOLCHAIN_PREFIX=i686-w64-mingw32 # check up the actual mingw prefix of your mingw installation
|
||||
cmake ../ -DCMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME=Windows -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER="$TOOLCHAIN_PREFIX-gcc" -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER="$TOOLCHAIN_PREFIX-g++"
|
||||
# Build Instructions
|
||||
|
||||
You may enable or disable some build options by -Dkey=value. All available build options are defined in CMakeLists.txt at root directory.
|
||||
See below if you want to build the GoldSource compatible libraries.
|
||||
## Windows. Using Developer Command Propmt for Visual Studio
|
||||
|
||||
See below, if CMake is not suitable for you:
|
||||
### Prerequisites
|
||||
|
||||
### Windows
|
||||
Install and run [Visual Studio Installer](https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/). The installer allows you to choose specific components. Select `Desktop development with C++`. You can untick everything you don't need in Installation details, but you must keep `MSVC` and `C++ CMake tools for Windows` ticked.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Using msvc
|
||||
### Building
|
||||
|
||||
We use compilers provided with Microsoft Visual Studio 6. There're `compile.bat` scripts in both `cl_dll` and `dlls` directories.
|
||||
Before running any of those files you must define `MSVCDir` variable which is the path to your msvc installation.
|
||||
Run `Developer command prompt for VS` via Windows `Start` menu. Inside the prompt navigate to the hlsdk directory, using `cd` command, e.g.
|
||||
```
|
||||
cd C:\Users\username\projects\hlsdk-xash3d
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
set MSVCDir=C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio
|
||||
compile.bat
|
||||
Note: if hlsdk-xash3d is unpacked on another disk, nagivate there first:
|
||||
```
|
||||
D:
|
||||
cd projects\hlsdk-xash3d
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
These scripts also can be ran via wine:
|
||||
Сonfigure the project:
|
||||
```
|
||||
cmake -A Win32 -B build -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="dist"
|
||||
```
|
||||
Once you configure the project you don't need to call `cmake` anymore unless you modify `CMakeLists.txt` files or want to reconfigure the project with different parameters.
|
||||
|
||||
MSVCDir="z:\home\$USER\.wine\drive_c\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio" wine cmd /c compile.bat
|
||||
The next step is to compile the libraries:
|
||||
```
|
||||
msbuild -verbosity:normal /property:Configuration=Release build/INSTALL.vcxproj
|
||||
```
|
||||
`hl.dll` and `client.dll` will appear in the directory configured via **CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX** option (**dist** in this example).
|
||||
|
||||
The libraries built this way are always GoldSource compatible.
|
||||
If you have a mod and want to automatically install libraries to the mod directory, set **GAMEDIR** variable to the directory name and **CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX** to your Half-Life or Xash3D installation path:
|
||||
```
|
||||
cmake -A Win32 -B build -DGAMEDIR=mod -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Half-Life"
|
||||
```
|
||||
Then call `msbuild` as described above.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Using mingw
|
||||
#### Choosing Visual Studio version
|
||||
|
||||
TODO
|
||||
You can explicitly choose a Visual Studio version on the configuration step by specifying cmake generator:
|
||||
```
|
||||
cmake -G "Visual Studio 16 2019" -A Win32 -B build -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="dist"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Unix-like
|
||||
### Editing code in Visual Studio
|
||||
|
||||
To use waf, you need to install python (2.7 minimum)
|
||||
After the configuration step, `HLSDK-XASH3D.sln` should appear in the `build` directory. You can open this solution in Visual Studio and continue developing there.
|
||||
|
||||
(./waf configure -T release)
|
||||
(./waf)
|
||||
## Windows. Using Microsoft Visual Studio 6
|
||||
|
||||
### Android
|
||||
Microsoft Visual Studio 6 is very old, but if you still have it installed, you can use it to build this hlsdk. There are no project files, but two `.bat` files, for server and client libraries. They require variable **MSVCDir** to be set to the installation path of Visual Studio:
|
||||
|
||||
Just typical `ndk-build`.
|
||||
TODO: describe what it is.
|
||||
```
|
||||
set MSVCDir=C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio
|
||||
cd dlls && compile.bat && cd ../cl_dll && compile.bat
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Building GoldSource-compatible libraries
|
||||
`hl.dll` and `client.dll` will appear in `dlls/` and `cl_dll/` diretories. The libraries built with msvc6 should be compatible with Windows XP.
|
||||
|
||||
To enable building the goldsource compatible client library add GOLDSOURCE_SUPPORT flag when calling cmake:
|
||||
## Linux. Using Steam Runtime in chroot
|
||||
|
||||
cmake .. -DGOLDSOURCE_SUPPORT=ON
|
||||
### Prerequisites
|
||||
|
||||
or when using waf:
|
||||
The official way to build Steam compatible games for Linux is through steam-runtime.
|
||||
|
||||
./waf configure -T release --enable-goldsrc-support
|
||||
Install schroot. On Ubuntu or Debian:
|
||||
|
||||
Unlike original client by Valve the resulting client library will not depend on vgui or SDL2 just like the one that's used in FWGS Xash3d.
|
||||
```
|
||||
sudo apt install schroot
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Note for **Windows**: it's not possible to create GoldSource compatible libraries using mingw, only msvc builds will work.
|
||||
Clone https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-runtime and follow instructions: [download](https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-runtime/blob/e014a74f60b45a861d38a867b1c81efe8484f77a/README.md#downloading-a-steam-runtime) and [setup](https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-runtime/blob/e014a74f60b45a861d38a867b1c81efe8484f77a/README.md#using-schroot) the chroot.
|
||||
|
||||
Note for **Linux**: GoldSource requires libraries (both client and server) to be compiled with libstdc++ bundled with g++ of major version 4 (versions from 4.6 to 4.9 should work).
|
||||
If your Linux distribution does not provide compatible g++ version you have several options.
|
||||
```
|
||||
sudo ./setup_chroot.sh --i386 --tarball ./com.valvesoftware.SteamRuntime.Sdk-i386-scout-sysroot.tar.gz
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### Method 1: Statically build with c++ library
|
||||
### Building
|
||||
|
||||
This one is the most simple but has a drawback.
|
||||
Now you can use cmake and make prepending the commands with `schroot --chroot steamrt_scout_i386 --`:
|
||||
```
|
||||
mkdir build-in-steamrt && cd build-in-steamrt
|
||||
schroot --chroot steamrt_scout_i386 -- cmake ..
|
||||
schroot --chroot steamrt_scout_i386 -- make
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
cmake ../ -DGOLDSOURCE_SUPPORT=ON -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS="-static-libstdc++ -static-libgcc"
|
||||
## Linux. Build without Steam Runtime
|
||||
|
||||
The drawback is that the compiled libraries will be larger in size.
|
||||
### Prerequisites
|
||||
|
||||
#### Method 2: Build in Steam Runtime chroot
|
||||
Install C++ compilers, cmake and x86 development libraries for C, C++ and SDL2. On Ubuntu/Debian:
|
||||
```
|
||||
sudo apt install cmake build-essential gcc-multilib g++-multilib libsdl2-dev:i386
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This is the official way to build Steam compatible games for Linux.
|
||||
### Building
|
||||
|
||||
Clone https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-runtime and follow instructions https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-runtime#building-in-the-runtime
|
||||
```
|
||||
mkdir build && cd build
|
||||
cmake ..
|
||||
make
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
sudo ./setup_chroot.sh --i386
|
||||
Note that the libraries built this way might be not compatible with Steam Half-Life. If you have such issue you can configure it to build statically with c++ and gcc libraries:
|
||||
```
|
||||
cmake .. -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS="-static-libstdc++ -static-libgcc"
|
||||
```
|
||||
To ensure portability it's still better to build using Steam Runtime or another chroot of some older distro.
|
||||
|
||||
Then use cmake and make as usual, but prepend the commands with `schroot --chroot steamrt_scout_i386 --`:
|
||||
## Linux. Build in your own chroot
|
||||
|
||||
mkdir build-in-steamrt && cd build-in-steamrt
|
||||
schroot --chroot steamrt_scout_i386 -- cmake ../ -DGOLDSOURCE_SUPPORT=ON
|
||||
schroot --chroot steamrt_scout_i386 -- make
|
||||
### Prerequisites
|
||||
|
||||
#### Method 3: Create your own chroot with older distro that includes g++ 4.
|
||||
Use the most suitable way for you to create an old distro 32-bit chroot. E.g. on Ubuntu/Debian you can use debootstrap.
|
||||
|
||||
Use the most suitable way for you to create an old distro 32-bit chroot. E.g. on Debian (and similar) you can use debootstrap.
|
||||
```
|
||||
sudo apt install debootstrap schroot
|
||||
sudo mkdir -p /var/choots
|
||||
sudo debootstrap --arch=i386 jessie /var/chroots/jessie-i386 # On Ubuntu type trusty instead of jessie
|
||||
sudo chroot /var/chroots/jessie-i386
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
sudo debootstrap --arch=i386 jessie /var/chroot/jessie-debian-i386 # On Ubuntu type trusty instead of jessie
|
||||
sudo chroot /var/chroot/jessie-debian-i386
|
||||
```
|
||||
# inside chroot
|
||||
apt install cmake build-essential gcc-multilib g++-multilib libsdl2-dev
|
||||
exit
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Inside chroot install cmake, make, g++ and libsdl2-dev. Then exit the chroot.
|
||||
|
||||
On the host system install schroot. Then create and adapt the following config in /etc/schroot/chroot.d/jessie.conf (you can choose a different name):
|
||||
Create and adapt the following config in /etc/schroot/chroot.d/jessie.conf (you can choose a different name):
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
[jessie]
|
||||
type=directory
|
||||
description=Debian jessie i386
|
||||
directory=/var/chroot/debian-jessie-i386/

||||
root-groups=root
|
||||
preserve-environment=true
|
||||
personality=linux32
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Insert your actual user name in place of `yourusername`. Then prepend any make or cmake call with `schroot -c jessie --`:
|
||||
Insert your actual user name in place of `yourusername`.
|
||||
|
||||
mkdir build-in-chroot && cd build-in-chroot
|
||||
schroot --chroot jessie -- cmake ../ -DGOLDSOURCE_SUPPORT=ON
|
||||
schroot --chroot jessie -- make
|
||||
### Building
|
||||
|
||||
#### Method 4: Install the needed g++ version yourself
|
||||
|
||||
TODO: describe steps.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Configuring Qt Creator to use toolchain from chroot
|
||||
|
||||
Create a file with the following contents anywhere:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
#!/bin/sh
|
||||
schroot --chroot steamrt_scout_i386 -- cmake "$@"
|
||||
Prepend any make or cmake call with `schroot -c jessie --`:
|
||||
```
|
||||
mkdir build-in-chroot && cd build-in-chroot
|
||||
schroot --chroot jessie -- cmake ..
|
||||
schroot --chroot jessie -- make
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Make it executable.
|
||||
In Qt Creator go to `Tools` -> `Options` -> `Build & Run` -> `CMake`. Add a new cmake tool and specify the path of previously created file.
|
||||
Go to `Kits` tab, clone your default configuration and choose your CMake tool there.
|
||||
Choose the new kit when opening CMakeLists.txt.
|
||||
## Linux. Crosscompiling using mingw
|
||||
|
||||
Note that GoldSource won't work with libraries compiled with mingw.
|
||||
|
||||
TODO: do we need this section at all? Is Xash3D-FWGS distributed with support for game libraries built with mingw?
|
||||
|
||||
### Prerequisites
|
||||
|
||||
Install mingw. On Ubuntu/Debian:
|
||||
```
|
||||
sudo apt-get install -y mingw-w64-i686-dev binutils-mingw-w64-i686 gcc-mingw-w64-i686 g++-mingw-w64-i686
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Building
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
mkdir build-mingw && cd build-mingw
|
||||
TOOLCHAIN_PREFIX=i686-w64-mingw32 # check up the actual mingw prefix of your mingw installation
|
||||
cmake .. -DCMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME=Windows -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER="$TOOLCHAIN_PREFIX-gcc" -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER="$TOOLCHAIN_PREFIX-g++"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Android
|
||||
|
||||
TODO
|
||||
|
||||
## Other platforms
|
||||
|
||||
Building on other Unix-like platforms (e.g. FreeBSD) is supported.
|
||||
|
||||
### Prerequisites
|
||||
|
||||
Install C and C++ compilers (like gcc or clang), cmake and make (or gmake)
|
||||
|
||||
### Building
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
mkdir build && cd build
|
||||
cmake ..
|
||||
make
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Building with waf
|
||||
|
||||
To use waf, you need to install python (2.7 minimum)
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
(./waf configure -T release)
|
||||
(./waf)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Build options
|
||||
|
||||
Some useful build options that can be set during the cmake step.
|
||||
|
||||
* **GOLDSOURCE_SUPPORT** - allows to turn off/on the support for GoldSource input. Set to **ON** by default on Windows and Linux, **OFF** on other platforms.
|
||||
* **USE_VGUI** - whether to use VGUI library. **OFF** by default. You need to init `vgui_support` submodule in order to build with VGUI.
|
||||
|
||||
This list is incomplete. Look at `CMakeLists.txt` to see all available options.
|
||||
|
||||
Prepend option names with `-D` when passing to cmake. Boolean options can take values **OFF** and **ON**. Example:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
cmake .. -DUSE_VGUI=ON -DGOLDSOURCE_SUPPORT=ON -DCROWBAR_IDLE_ANIM=ON -DCROWBAR_FIX_RAPID_CROWBAR=ON
|
||||
```
