The following table displays a set of build options. To enable them, you can specify -D${OPTION_NAME}=${VALUE} as a build flag for each option that you want to enable in the CMake configuration step (which is the first CMake command you run).
For instance, if you wanted to enable the OPENGL_INTERPOLATION option, the flag that you would need to provide would be -DOPENGL_INTERPOLATION=1.
| Option | Values | Description |
|---|---|---|
OPENGL_INTERPOLATION |
0, 1 |
Enables (1) or disables (0) support for the INTERPOLATE option in game.ini, which works best when combined with the video stretch option. Note that this option requires SDL2 ≥ 2.0.10 and OpenGL 3.3 Core Profile support. |
In order to build this project, you will need a C++17 compiler, CMake (≥ 3.10), SDL2 (≥ 2.0.5), SDL2_image, SDL2_mixer, libvorbis, and SQLite3. In the following, please follow the steps that match your build environment. All of the sections below assume that your current working directory is the repository's root directory.
$ sudo pacman -S gcc cmake sdl2 sdl2_image sdl2_mixer libvorbis sqlite
$ cmake -B build -S . && cmake --build build -j$(nproc)$ sudo apt install build-essential cmake libsdl2-dev libsdl2-image-dev libsdl2-mixer-dev libvorbis-dev libsqlite3-dev
$ cmake -B build -S . && cmake --build build -j$(nproc)Before running these instructions, make sure to install Homebrew.
$ brew install cmake libvorbis pkg-config sdl2 sdl2_image sdl2_mixer
$ cmake -B build -S . && cmake --build build -j$(sysctl -n hw.ncpu)In case you're faced with a package-related error after running the cmake command, you're likely using an outdated brew and need to update first:
$ brew update
$ brew upgrade pkg-configBefore running these instructions, make sure to install CMake, vcpkg, and Visual Studio. You may have to add the vcpkg installation directory to your Path environment variable to be able to use the command in this fashion. Instead, you can also change into the vcpkg installation directory and run the vcpkg command there.
$ vcpkg install --triplet x64-windows libvorbis sdl2 sdl2-image sdl2-mixer[dynamic-load,libvorbis] sqlite3
$ cmake -B build -S . && cmake --build build -jBefore running these instructions, make sure to install MSYS2. If during linking, you see errors about the linker not being able to find -lmingw32, reboot your computer before trying again. The following commands need to be run in a "MSYS2 MinGW 64-bit" shell.
$ pacman --needed --noconfirm -S cmake gcc make mingw-w64-x86_64-{dlfcn,libvorbis,SDL2{,_image,_mixer}} sqlite3
$ cmake -B build -G "MSYS Makefiles" -S . && cmake --build build -j$(nproc)You can find your compiled executable in ./build/Shiromino. Note that the executable may have a native file extension, so expect it to end with .exe on Windows.
To ensure that the game finds its assets, make sure to use the project root directory as your current working directory when running the game, or use game.ini to set BASE_PATH accordingly. The easiest way to check if everything works should be:
$ ./build/ShirominoNote: If you used the MSYS2 build instructions, note that double-clicking the executable won't work unless you provide all the DLL files in the same directory. Be advised to start shiromino through the command line as outlined above.
