A port of the game engine behind the DOS versions of Titus the Fox and Moktar.
OpenTitus is released under the Gnu GPL version 3 or (at your option) any later version of the license, and it is released "as is"; without any warranty.
This is a fork that aims to modernize the codebase, clean everything up, fix bugs, and make the game playable on modern systems with large 4K screens.

You need:
- Some sort of compiler
- Recent version of CMake
- SDL and SDL_mixer libraries available and usable for development
This should get things built and ready for testing/use:
mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="../bin/"
make install
You need the original game files to make use of OpenTitus. OpenTitus parses the original files. It works with both Titus the Fox and Moktar.
- Build and install into the
bin
folder according to the build instructions. - Place original game files in
bin/moktar
and/orbin/titus
folders. - Run
opentitus
insidebin/titus
folder oropenmoktar
inbin/moktar
folder.
Please do not upload the original game files to the git server, as they are proprietary!
