warsow_build_notes.md

after deleting everyhting and trying again i got it to work.. its worth noting, libs were automatically picked up for me. I think where you got in trouble was pointing libs at a directly instead of the static .lib file cmake was wanting, alas here is what i did.

I have vs2015, 2017, 2019 and mingw installed. when building I opened solutions in 2019 and built with 2015 tools

prerequisites

  1. if you already installed cmake for windows, uninstall it
  2. install the LATEST CMake 3.14.5 (ya really), but not the RC from here, add to path when asked

if you want to build with mingw:

  1. download and run https://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w64/ - install x86_64 version of gcc 8.1.0.
  2. add C:\Program Files\mingw-w64\x86_64-8.1.0-posix-seh-rt_v6-rev0\mingw64\bin to your PATH (user path is fine).
  3. restart any shells before continuing

qfusion - VS2015

  1. clone qfusion
  2. in root of qfusion repo run: git submodule update --init --recursive, this will get libsrc and third-party submodules for you. 3.generate projects: cmake -DQFUSION_GAME="Warsow" . for me this found everything but openAL, and generated for VS2019 without issue.
  3. Open qfusion solution, build ALL_BUILD debug/release you'll get everything out in source\build\Debug/release

qfusion - mingw

The static mingw libs do not work as provided. all the *.a that do not end in stat.a are just text files with a filename, so they're treated like a linker script. however this doesnt work on mingw-win32 (or likely at all?), can hack it by deleting all non-stat.a files, then removing stat in the files so its just the actual libs in dir.

To build:

  1. cmake -DQFUSION_GAME="Warsow" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -G "MinGW Makefiles" .
  2. mingw32-make -j4 where 4 is num of cores you got else its single process and slow
  3. blam you got bins in build\

warsow 2.1 sdk mingw

  1. the angelscript target is done in a nonstandard way, nice work idiots! change line 198 in <sdk>\source\source\CMakeLists.txt to add_custom_target(angelscript ${CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM} -C ${ANGELSCRIPT_PROJECT_DIR})
  2. in sdk\source\source\ run cmake -DQFUSION_GAME="Warsow" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -G "MinGW Makefiles" .
  3. run mingw32-make -j4
  4. bins are in build\

warsow 2.1 SDK - VS2015 WIP

wip the libs are built from something older than VS2015:

.. todo, fix libs.. they are FUCKING ANCIENT https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/porting/visual-cpp-change-history-2003-2015?view=vs-2019#BK_CRT

  1. Unzip sdk
  2. Go to source/source
  3. run cmake -G "Visual Studio 14 2015"
  4. this should pick up everything again, eg
Dexter@HTwork MINGW64 /c/work/warsow_21_sdk/source/source
$ cmake -G "Visual Studio 14 2015"

  1. open qfusion solution, build ALL_BUILD, wait two shitass hours for librocket
  2. similar to above - source\build\debug and source\build\release are where bins end up when done
