Base0 is the starter code for the game0 in the 15-466-f17 course. It was developed by Jim McCann, and is hereby released into the public domain.
Note that Base0 is attempting to illustrate a very straightfoward "get it done" philosophy of game code design -- I've purposefully removed some of the conveniences one typically uses to sweep things under the rug.
This is because game0 does not need such conveniences. It is simple because game0 is simple.
- modern C++ compiler
- glm
- libSDL2
On Linux or OSX these requirements should be available from your package manager without too much hassle.
If you are building on a system where you are unable to install libraries, you may wish to use one of the pre-built library repositories:
Clone kit-libs-linux into the kit-libs-linux subdirectory:
git clone https://github.com/ixchow/kit-libs-linux
Now you can build using the '.local' Makefile:
make -f Makefile.local
Clone kit-libs-osx into the kit-libs-osx subdirectory:
git clone https://github.com/ixchow/kit-libs-osx
Now you can build using the '.local' Makefile:
make -f Makefile.local
Clone kit-libs-win into the kit-libs-win subdirectory:
git clone https://github.com/ixchow/kit-libs-win
Now you can:
nmake -f Makefile.win
or:
cl.exe /EHsc /W3 /WX /MD /Ikit-libs-win\out\include /Ikit-libs-win\out\include\SDL2 main.cpp Draw.cpp gl_shims.cpp /link /SUBSYSTEM:CONSOLE /LIBPATH:kit-libs-win\out\lib SDL2main.lib SDL2.lib OpenGL32.lib
copy kit-libs-win\out\dist\SDL2.dll .
If you are building on a system where you can install libraries easily, then you may wish to build against versions of the required libraries installed by your favorite package manager.
g++ -g -Wall -Werror -o main main.cpp Draw.cpp `sdl2-config --cflags --libs` -lGL
or:
make
clang++ -g -Wall -Werror -o main main.cpp Draw.cpp `sdl2-config --cflags --libs`
or:
make
Every scheme I am aware of for "globally installing" libraries on Windows seems like a hack.
