# Cave Story Engine 2
|
|
|
|
Cave Story Engine 2 is a decompilation of Cave Story, ported from DirectX to SDL2.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Dependencies
|
|
|
|
*Note: with CMake, if these are not found, they will be built locally*
|
|
|
|
* SDL2
|
|
* FreeType
|
|
* FLTK
|
|
|
|
## Building
|
|
|
|
### CMake
|
|
|
|
This project primarily uses CMake, allowing it to be built with a range of compilers.
|
|
|
|
In this folder, create another folder called 'build', then switch to the command-line (Visual Studio users should open the [Developer Command Prompt](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/framework/tools/developer-command-prompt-for-vs)) and `cd` into it. After that, generate the files for your build system with:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can also add the following flags:
|
|
* `-DJAPANESE=ON` - Enable the Japanese-language build (instead of the unofficial Aeon Genesis English translation)
|
|
* `-DFIX_BUGS=ON` - Fix bugs in the game (see [src/Bug Fixes.txt](src/Bug%20Fixes.txt))
|
|
* `-DNONPORTABLE=ON` - Enable bits of code that aren't portable, but are what the original game used
|
|
* `-DFORCE_LOCAL_LIBS=ON` - Compile the built-in versions of SDL2, FreeType, and FLTK instead of using the system-provided ones
|
|
|
|
Then compile CSE2 with this command:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
cmake --build . --config Release
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you're a Visual Studio user, you can open the generated `CSE2.sln` file instead.
|
|
|
|
Once built, the executables and assets can be found in the newly-generated `game` folder.
|
|
|
|
### Makefile (deprecated)
|
|
|
|
*Note: this requires pkg-config*
|
|
|
|
Run 'make' in this folder, preferably with some of the following settings:
|
|
|
|
* `RELEASE=1` - Compile a release build (optimised, stripped, etc.)
|
|
* `STATIC=1` - Produce a statically-linked executable (good for Windows builds, so you don't need to bundle DLL files)
|
|
* `JAPANESE=1` - Enable the Japanese-language build (instead of the unofficial Aeon Genesis English translation)
|
|
* `FIX_BUGS=1` - Fix bugs in the game (see [src/Bug Fixes.txt](src/Bug%20Fixes.txt))
|
|
* `WINDOWS=1` - Enable Windows-only features like a unique file/taskbar icon, and system font loading (needed for the font setting in Config.dat to do anything)
|
|
* `RASPBERRY_PI=1` - Enable tweaks to improve performance on Raspberry Pis
|
|
* `NONPORTABLE=1` - Enable bits of code that aren't portable, but are what the original game used
|
|
|
|
### Visual Studio .NET 2003
|
|
|
|
Project files for Visual Studio .NET 2003 are available in the 'msvc2003' folder.
|
|
|
|
Visual Studio .NET 2003 was used by Pixel to create the original `Doukutsu.exe`, so these project files allow us to check the accuracy of the decompilation by comparing the generated assembly code to that of the original executable.
|
|
|
|
This option is **strictly** for checking the decompilation's accuracy; CMake should be preferred in all other situations.
|
|
|
|
## Licensing
|
|
|
|
Being a decompilation, the majority of the code in this project belongs to Daisuke "Pixel" Amaya - not us. We've yet to agree on a license for our own code.
