## Installation & Running
0) Get Xash3D binaries: you can use [testing](https://github.com/FWGS/xash3d-fwgs/releases/tag/continuous) build or you can compile engine from source code.
Choose proper build package depending on which platform you're using.
0) Get Xash3D FWGS binaries: you can use [testing](https://github.com/FWGS/xash3d-fwgs/releases/tag/continuous) build or you can compile engine from source code.
1) Copy engine binaries to some directory.
2) Copy `valve` directory from [Half-Life](https://store.steampowered.com/app/70/HalfLife/) to directory with engine binaries.
Also if you're using Windows: you should copy `vgui.dll` library from Half-Life directory to Xash3D directory.
As alternative, you can compile [hlsdk-xash3d](https://github.com/FWGS/hlsdk-xash3d) instead of using official Valve game binaries, but you still needed to copy `valve` directory as all game resources located in there.
3) Download [extras.pak](https://github.com/FWGS/xash-extras/releases/tag/v0.19.2) and place it to `valve` directory.
4) Run `xash3d.exe`/`xash3d.sh`/`xash3d` depending on which platform you're using.
If your CPU is NOT x86 compatible or you're running 64-bit version of the engine, you may want to compile [Half-Life SDK](https://github.com/FWGS/hlsdk-xash3d).
This repository contains our fork of HLSDK and restored source code for some of the mods. Not all of them, of course.
You still needed to copy `valve` directory as all game resources located there.
3) Run the main executable (`xash3d.exe` or AppImage).
Note: on Linux, you may need to create an sh file with the command `LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. ./xash3d`.
Note: on Linux, without AppImage, you may need to create a shell-script with the command `LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. ./xash3d`.
For additional info, run Xash3D with `-help` command line key.

### Prerequisites
If your CPU is x86 compatible, we are building 32-bit code by default. This was dont for keeping compatibility with Steam releases of Half-Life and based on it's engine games.
Even if Xash3D FWGS does support targetting 64-bit, you can't load games without recompiling them from source code!

NOTE FOR USERS WITH X86 COMPATIBLE CPUs:
We have forced Waf to throw an error, if you're trying to build 64-bit engine. This was done for keeping compatibility with Steam releases of Half-Life and based on it's engine games.

If compiling 32-bit on amd64, you may need to supply `export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/pkgconfig` prior to running configure.

1) Configure build: `./waf configure -T release`
(You need to pass `-8` to compile 64-bit engine on 64-bit x86 processor)
2) Compile: `./waf build`
