Build instructions
We are using Waf build system. If you have some Waf-related questions, I recommend you to read https://waf.io/book/
If you're stuck somewhere and you need a clear example, read .travis.yml
and scripts/build*.sh
.
Prerequisites
Windows(Visual Studio)
- Install Visual Studio.
- Install latest Python OR run
cinst python.install
if you have Chocolatey. - Install latest Git OR run
cinst git.install
if you have Chocolatey. - Download SDL2 development package for Visual Studio.
- Clone this repository:
git clone --recursive https://github.com/FWGS/xash3d-fwgs
. - Clone
vgui-dev
repository:git clone https://github.com/FWGS/vgui-dev
. - Make sure you have at least 12GB of free space to store all build-time dependencies: ~10GB for Visual Studio, 300 MB for Git, 100 MB for Python and other.
Linux
NOTE: Make sure you're OK with targetting 32-bit.
Even if Xash3D FWGS does support targetting 64-bit, you can't load games without recompiling them from source code!
- Gentoo: TODO
- Debian: TODO
- ArchLinux:
<AUR Helper> -S xash3d-git
