**This is the game engine source code repository.**
|
|
|
|
[ZetaGlest](https://zetaglest.github.io/docs/) is a fork of [MegaGlest](http://megaglest.org/),
|
|
a libre software cross platform real-time strategy game.
|
|
|
|
ZetaGlest is a network multi-player real-time strategy game engine.
|
|
It's shipped with the ZetaPack mod, which includes several factions,
|
|
each one consisting of many 3d characters. The factions are loosely
|
|
based on historical empires with added elements of fantasy, such as
|
|
mummies produced by Egyptian priests, Indian shamans who summon
|
|
thunderbirds for air assaults, and Norsemen who can build flying
|
|
valkries and "Thors". Start the game by harvesting natural resources,
|
|
then use the cash to produce an army. Single-player mode against the
|
|
CPU is also available.

## Why this fork? (Project Goals)
|
|
|
|
Because we love MegaGlest! We wanted to take the project into a
|
|
slightly different direction, and therefore we forked MegaGlest into
|
|
the ZetaGlest project.

The FAQ is located at

## Download executable files
|
|
|
|
On Windows, the easiest way to get started is to [download and run the
|
|
installer](https://github.com/ZetaGlest/windows-installer). If you want
|
|
to contribute with the code on Windows, [please follow these
|
|
instructions](https://github.com/ZetaGlest/zetaglest-source/blob/develop/mk/windows/README.md).
|
|
|
|
For other operating systems, you must [**build and install from
|
|
source**](https://github.com/ZetaGlest/zetaglest-source/blob/develop/BUILD.md)
|
|
(Later, we'll be providing binary packages).
|
|
|
|
(The ETA for the first official release can be viewed from the [development
|
|
milestone](https://github.com/ZetaGlest/zetaglest-source/milestone/1).)
|
|
|
|
## Running
|
|
|
|
./zetaglest (if you didn't install)
|
|
|
|
OR
|
|
|
|
zetaglest (if you installed and the binary is in your PATH)
|
|
|
|
To run your own headless (dedicated) server, see [the FAQ](https://zetaglest.github.io/docs/faq.html#headlessserver).
