This repository contains everything that you need to build Arx Libertatis in both 32-bit and 64-bit under Windows with MSVC 2015 or newer. It also contains the necessary to build installers for the game.

• Boost (headers only)
• GLM
• FreeType
• OpenAL Soft
• libepoxy
• SDL2
• zLib

Additionally, you'll need the following libraries to build the Crash Reporter:

• DbgHelp
• Qt

Detailed instructions are available on the wiki.

1. Download the content of this repository to your PC, for example in GitBash:

   cd /c/Code/git
   git clone git:https://github.com/arx/ArxWindows.git --depth 1
   

2. Download the Arx Libertatis source code:

   cd /c/Code/git/ArxWindows
   git submodule update --init --remote --recursive
   

3. Make sure Arx Libertatis is at the desired branch/tag/commit:

   cd /c/Code/git/ArxWindows/arx
   git checkout master
   

4. Generating the project files

   cd /c/Code/git/ArxWindows
   mkdir build
   cd build
   cmake .. -G "Visual Studio 15 2017"
   

   Replace "Visual Studio 15 2017" with the desired CMake generator name, for example "Visual Studio 15 2017 Win64" for 64-bit builds. Starting with CMake 3.1 the architecture should be specified seperately

   cmake .. -G "Visual Studio 16 2019" -A x64
   

   Valid Architectures are Win32, x64, ARM and ARM64. If you intend to use Visual Studios incremental builds, add -DDEVELOPER=1 to the command

   cmake .. -G "Visual Studio 16 2019" -A x64 -DDEVELOPER=1
   

5. Build the generated solution in Visual Studio
