Building

--------

More detailed information about building the game for different operating systems and different platforms can be found on the [SeriousSamClassic wiki.](https://github.com/tx00100xt/SeriousSamClassic/wiki)



There are still many asserts in the engine. Most of them are irrelevant and should be removed, but while it's not done, the asserts will effectively kill the engine when triggered in the Debug build. Use Release or RelWithDebInfo build if you intend to play (automatically set as RelWithDebInfo in the build scripts).



### Linux



#### Setting up the repository



Type this in your terminal:



```

git clone https://github.com/tx00100xt/SeriousSamClassic.git

```



#### Copy official game data (optional)



If you have access to a copy of the game (either by CD or through Steam),

you can copy the *.gro files from the game directory to the repository.

(SeriousSamClassic/SamTFE is the directory of the game Serious Sam Classic The First Encounter, SeriousSamClassic/SamTSE is the directory of the game Serious Sam Classic The Second Encounter)



#### Building (for SS:TFE and SS:TSE)



Type this in your terminal:



```

cd SeriousSamClassic

mkdir build

cd build

cmake ..

make -j4

make install

```

If you prefer **ninja**, then add key **-GNinja** to the cmake. And replace the **make** command with **ninja**.



### Ubuntu 

Instead of building you can install packages from ppa by adding ppa:tx00100xt/serioussam to your system's Software Sources.

```bash

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tx00100xt/serioussamclassic

sudo apt update

```

This PPA can be added to your system manually by copying the lines below and adding them to your system's software sources.

```

deb https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/tx00100xt/serioussamclassic/ubuntu YOUR_UBUNTU_VERSION_HERE main 

deb-src https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/tx00100xt/serioussamclassic/ubuntu YOUR_UBUNTU_VERSION_HERE main  

```

After adding ppa, run the commands:

```bash

sudo apt install serioussamclassic serioussamclassic-xplus

```



### Gentoo

To build the game, use the ebuild included in the official Gentoo repository.  

https://packages.gentoo.org/packages/games-fps/serioussam  

This ebuild uses the repo https://github.com/tx00100xt/SeriousSamClassic-VK which   

additionally contains the Vulkan render. Everything else is identical to this repository.



You will also need CD images of the games Serious Sam Classic The First Encounter and  

Serious Sam Classic The First Encounter.



Type this in your terminal:



```

echo "games-fps/serioussam -vulkan" >> /etc/portage/package.use/serioussam

emerge -av serioussam --autounmask=y

```



For game add-ons, use a [serioussam-overlay](https://github.com/tx00100xt/serioussam-overlay) containing ready-made ebuilds for building the add-ons.  



Type this in your terminal:



```

emerge eselect-repository

eselect repository enable serioussam

emaint sync --repo serioussam

```

The list of add-ons can be found in [README](https://github.com/tx00100xt/serioussam-overlay/tree/main?tab=readme-ov-file#ebuilds)



### Arch Linux



To build a game under Arch Linux you can use the package from AUR: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/serioussam



### Raspberry Pi



The build for raspberry pi is similar to the build for Linux, you just need to add an additional build key.



```

cd SeriousSamClassic

mkdir build

cd build

cmake -DRPI4=TRUE ..

make -j4

make install

```



### FreeBSD



#### Setting up the repository



Type this in your terminal:



```

git clone https://github.com/tx00100xt/SeriousSamClassic.git

```



#### Copy official game data (optional)



If you have access to a copy of the game (either by CD or through Steam),

you can copy the *.gro files from the game directory to the repository.

(SeriousSamClassic/SamTFE is the directory of the game Serious Sam Classic The First Encounter, SeriousSamClassic/SamTSE is the directory of the game Serious Sam Classic The Second Encounter)



#### Building (for SS:TFE and SS:TSE)



Type this in your terminal:



```

cd SeriousSamClassic

mkdir build

cd build

cmake ..

make -j4

make install

```

If you prefer **ninja**, then add key **-GNinja** to the cmake. And replace the **make** command with **ninja**.

For **i386** architecture, add key **-DUSE_ASM=OFF** to **cmake**.

To build a binary package for installation on the system, you can use the template:

https://github.com/tx00100xt/SeriousSamClassic/tree/main/templates



### OpenBSD



#### Install the required packages

```

doas pkg_add bison cmake ninja git sdl2 libogg libvorbis

```

#### Setting up the repository



```

git clone https://github.com/jasperla/openbsd-wip.git

```

Add the path to **openbsd-wip** to **PORTSDIR_PATH** in **/etc/mk.conf**

Type this in your terminal:

```

cd openbsd-wip/games/serioussam

make install

```

#### Copy official game data



Copy all content of the original game to the appropriate directories:

```

~/.local/share/Serious-Engine/serioussam/ - for Serious Sam Classic The First Encounter

~/.local/share/Serious-Engine/serioussamse/ - for Serious Sam Classic The Second Encounter

```

To start the game type in console: **serioussam** or **serioussamse**. You can also use the launch of the game through the menu.

For more information, type in the console: **man serioussam**



### NetBSD



Install required dependencies:

```

sudo pkgin install cmake nasm bison SDL2 libogg libvorbis

```

#### Copy official game data

(SeriousSamClassic/SamTFE is the directory of the game Serious Sam Classic The First Encounter, SeriousSamClassic/SamTSE is the directory of the game Serious Sam Classic The Second Encounter)



Type this in your terminal:

```

cd SeriousSamClassic

mkdir build

cd build

cmake ..

make -j4

make install

```

For **i386** use **cmake .. -DUSE_ASM=OFF**

To build a binary package for installation on the system, you can use the template:
