Compile Doom on Linux

doom_compile_linux.md

Anything on github?

The original Id software release is there, but no dos version because of a sound library issue. (Why not release dos source without sound?

This is still under development, try it out:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/prboom-plus/

Where can I checkout the source code? Don't want a tar.gz.

Shareware wad

Clean and re-cmake, now it works.

Ubuntu 14.04

building master branch on Ubuntu 14.04

Was able to do this shortly before discovering I should be using the stable branch, which does compile on the version of gcc that comes with 14.04- c++14 is needed to build master without all the changes outlined below I had to make.

need wxwidgets, fluidsynth

sudo apt-get install libwxbase3.0-dev libfluidsynth-dev

Can't get libjack-dev for fluidsynth

The following packages have unmet dependencies:

 libjack-dev : Depends: libjack0 (= 1:0.121.3+20120418git75e3e20b-2.1ubuntu1) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

sudo apt-get install libjack0

Have to remove
libasound2-plugins:i386 libjack-jackd2-0 libjack-jackd2-0:i386

sudo apt-get install libsfml-dev libftgl-dev

/usr/include/wx-3.0/wx/cursor.h:93:22: error: ‘wxIsBusy’ was not declared in this scope

Try earlier 2.8 wxwidgets?
Nope

(need to delete the build dir and redo cmake ../SLADE)

g++ (Ubuntu 4.8.4-2ubuntu1~14.04.3) 4.8.4

instead

CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS:STRING=-std=c++1y

Better go back to CMakeLists.txt isntead of editing output files:

# c++14 is required to compile
if(CMAKE_VERSION VERSION_LESS 3.1)
  add_compile_options(-std=c++1y)

But that doesn't fix enum issue.

set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -std=c++1y")

Still no make_unique in 1y

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lwx_gtk2u_media-3.0

sudo apt-get install libwxgtk-media3.0-dev

And it is finished... but there is a stable branch that maybe could avoid all this:

Map Editing

using shareware doom1.wad

need a bsp compiler? Not for zdoom

Have you tried Odamex? https://github.com/odamex/odamex

https://github.com/id-Software/DOOM

Chocolate Doom

https://github.com/chocolate-doom/chocolate-doom.git

This looks better:

git clone https://github.com/chocolate-doom/chocolate-doom.git
sudo apt-get install libsdl2-mixer-dev libsdl2-net-dev
cd chocolate-doom
./autogen.sh
make
./src/chocolate-doom -iwad ../DOOM1.WAD

It goes full-screen.

The keyboard doesn't work except for the buttons used for moving the player- it isn't possible to quit! Also not possible to save.

Also switching ctrl-alt-f1 to a terminal didn't work, the screen was just black.

So need to run in windowed mode, and how to fix the keyboard? chocolate-doom/chocolate-doom#740

./src/chocolate-doom-setup 

Made the game windowed and told it not to own the mouse, which allows quitting, but still no keyboard support.

Get these errors:

The key you just pressed is not recognized by SDL. To help get this fixed, please report this to the SDL mailing list <[email protected]> X11 KeyCode 29 (21), X11 KeySym 0x79 (y).
