**This is the game engine source code repository.**
|
|
|
|
[ZetaGlest](https://github.com/ZetaGlest) is a fork of [MegaGlest](http://megaglest.org/),
|
|
a libre software cross platform real-time strategy game.
|
|
|
|
ZetaGlest is an entertaining free (freeware and free software) and open
|
|
source cross-platform 3D real-time strategy (RTS) game, where you
|
|
control the armies of one of seven different factions: Tech, Magic,
|
|
Egypt, Indians, Norsemen, Persian or Romans. The game is played in one
|
|
of 17 naturally looking settings, which, like the unit models, are
|
|
crafted with great attention to detail. A lot of additional game data
|
|
can be downloaded from within the game at no cost.
|
|
|
|
## Download executable files
|
|
|
|
No binary packages of the ZetaGlest fork have been released yet. If you
|
|
have no desire to compile software and would only like a binary
|
|
(executable), we suggest trying the [MegaGlest](http://megaglest.org/)
|
|
game; binary package downloads for various operating systems are
|
|
available on their web site.
|
|
|
|
## To Build (Compile) and Run
|
|
|
|
### Try the game without contributing
|
|
|
|
Use this command:
|
|
|
|
git clone --recursive https://github.com/ZetaGlest/zetaglest-source.git
|
|
|
|
Afterward, to build, change to the mk/ directory, select your operating
|
|
system and run
|
|
|
|
./build-mg.sh
|
|
|
|
### Contributing and Testing
|
|
|
|
If you would like to contribute to development, you will need to fork and
|
|
clone these 3 repositories:
|
|
|
|
mkdir ZetaGlest
|
|
git clone https://github.com/ZetaGlest/zetaglest-source
|
|
git clone https://github.com/ZetaGlest/zetaglest-data
|
|
git clone https://github.com/ZetaGlest/zetaglest-masterserver
|
|
|
|
Afterward, to build, change to the zetaglest-source/mk/<OS> directory, and run:
|
|
|
|
./build-mg.sh
|
|
|
|
To run the game, you will need to specify the data path:
|
|
|
|
./megaglest --data-path=<path to data repository>zetaglest-data/
|
|
|
|
If you don't provide the data path, you will receive an error message
|
|
when the game starts.
