____________________________________________

4) GETTING THE SOURCE CODE
___________________________________

This project's GitHub.net Git repository can be checked out through Git with the following instruction set: 

	> git clone https://github.com/RobertBeckebans/RBDOOM-3-BFG.git

If you don't want to use git, you can download the source as a zip file at
	https://github.com/RobertBeckebans/RBDOOM-3-BFG/archive/master.zip



___________________________________________________________________

5) COMPILING ON WIN32 WITH VISUAL C++ 2013 EXPRESS EDITION
__________________________________________________________

1. Download and install the Visual C++ 2013 Express Edition.

2. Download the DirectX SDK (June 2010) here:
	http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=6812

3. Download and install the latest CMake.

4. Generate the VC13 projects using CMake by doubleclicking a matching configuration .bat file in the neo/ folder.

5. Use the VC13 solution to compile what you need:
	RBDOOM-3-BFG/build/RBDoom3BFG.sln
	
6. Download ffmpeg-20151105-git-c878082-win32-shared.7z from ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/win32/shared
 	or
	ffmpeg-20151105-git-c878082-win64-shared.7z from ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/win64/shared

7. Extract the FFmpeg DLLs to your current build directory under RBDOOM-3-BFG/build/


__________________________________

6) COMPILING ON GNU/LINUX
_________________________


1. You need the following dependencies in order to compile RBDoom3BFG with all features:
 
	On Debian or Ubuntu:

		> apt-get install cmake libsdl2-dev libopenal-dev libavcodec-dev libavformat-dev libavutil-dev libswscale-dev
	
	On Fedora

		// TODO add ffmpeg libs for bink videos
		
		> yum install cmake SDL-devel openal-devel
	
	On ArchLinux 
	
		> sudo pacman -S sdl2 ffmpeg openal cmake
	
	On openSUSE (tested in 13.1)
	
		> zypper in openal-soft-devel cmake libSDL-devel libffmpeg1-devel
	
		For SDL 2 replace "libSDL-devel" with "libSDL2-devel".
		"libffmpeg1-devel" requires the PackMan repository. If you don't have that repo, and don't want to add it, remove the "libffmpeg1-devel" option and compile without ffmpeg support.
		If you have the repo and compiles with ffmpeg support, make sure you download "libffmpeg1-devel", and not "libffmpeg-devel".
	
	Instead of SDL2 development files you can also use SDL1.2. Install SDL 1.2 and add to the cmake parameters -DSDL2=OFF
	
	SDL2 has better input support (especially in the console) and better 
	support for multiple displays (especially in fullscreen mode).


2. Generate the Makefiles using CMake:

	> cd neo/
	> ./cmake-eclipse-linux-profile.sh
	
3. Compile RBDOOM-3-BFG targets with

	> cd ../build
	> make

___________________________________________________

7) INSTALLATION, GETTING THE GAMEDATA, RUNNING THE GAME
__________________________________________


If you use the prebuilt Win32 binaries then simply extract them to your
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Doom 3 BFG Edition\ directory and run RBDoom3BFG.exe.




The following instructions are primarily intented for Linux users and all hackers on other operating systems.

To play the game, you need the game data from a legal copy of the game.

Currently this requires a Windows installer, whether that be the GOG installer or by using Steam for Windows.

Note: the original DVD release of Doom 3 BFG contains encrypted data that is decoded by Steam on install.

On Linux and OSX the easiest way to install is with SteamCMD: https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/SteamCMD
See the description on https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/SteamCMD#Linux (OS X is directly below that) on how to install SteamCMD on your system. You won't have to create a new user.

Then you can download Doom 3 BFG with

> ./steamcmd.sh +@sSteamCmdForcePlatformType windows +login <YOUR_STEAM_LOGIN_NAME> +force_install_dir ./doom3bfg/ +app_update 208200 validate +quit

(replace <YOUR_STEAM_LOGIN_NAME> with your steam login name)
When it's done you should have the normal windows installation of Doom 3 BFG in ./doom3bfg/ and the needed files in ./doom3bfg/base/
That number is the "AppID" of Doom 3 BFG; if you wanna use this to get the data of other games you own, you can look up the AppID at https://steamdb.info/

NOTE that we've previously recommended using download_depot in the Steam console to install the game data. That turned out to be unreliable and result in broken, unusable game data. So use SteamCMD instead, as described above.

Alternatively with the GOG installer, you can use Wine to install the game. See https://winehq.org/download for details on how to install wine for Linux and Mac.

Once Wine is installed and configured on your system install Doom 3 BFG edition using the downloaded installers from gog.com:

> wine setup_doom_3_bfg_1.14_\(13452\)_\(g\).exe

(there will be several .exe files from GOG, make sure all of them are in the same directory)

Once this is complete, by default you can find your Doom 3 BFG "base/" directory at ".wine/drive_c/GOG\ Games/DOOM\ 3\ BFG/base".

Note that you may want to add the following line to the bottom of the default.cfg in whatever "base/" directory you use:

> set sys_lang "english"

This will ensure the game and its menus are in english and don't default to something else. Alternatives include:

set sys_lang "english"
set sys_lang "french"
set sys_lang "german"
set sys_lang "italian"
set sys_lang "japanese"
set sys_lang "spanish"

Anyway:

1. Install Doom 3 BFG in Steam (Windows version) or SteamCMD, make sure it's getting
   updated/patched.

2. Create your own Doom 3 BFG directory, e.g. /path/to/Doom3BFG/

3. Copy the game-data's base dir from Steam or GOG to that directory
   (e.g. /path/to/Doom3BFG/), it's in
	/your/path/to/Steam/steamapps/common/DOOM 3 BFG Edition/base/
	or, if you used SteamCMD or GOG installer with Wine, in the path you used above.

4. Copy your RBDoom3BFG executable that you created in 5) or 6) and the FFmpeg DLLs to your own 
   Doom 3 BFG directory (/path/to/Doom3BFG).
   
   Your own Doom 3 BFG directory now should look like:
	/path/to/Doom3BFG/
	 ->	RBDoom3BFG (or RBDoom3BFG.exe on Windows)
	 -> avcodec-55.dll
	 -> avdevice-55.dll
	 -> avfilter-4.dll
	 -> avformat-55.dll
	 -> avutil-52.dll
	 -> postproc-52.dll
	 -> swresample-0.dll
	 -> swscale-2.dll
	 ->	base/
		 ->	classicmusic/
		 ->	_common.crc
		 ->	(etc)

5. Run the game by executing the RBDoom3BFG executable.

6. Enjoy

7. If you run into bugs, please report them, see 11)

___________________________________________________

8) OVERALL CHANGES
__________________________________________

- Flexible build system using CMake

- Linux support (32 and 64 bit)

- Win64 support

- OS X support

- OpenAL Soft sound backend primarily developed for Linux but works on Windows as well

- Bink video support through FFmpeg

- PNG image support

- Soft shadows using PCF hardware shadow mapping

	The implementation uses sampler2DArrayShadow and PCF which usually
	requires Direct3D 10.1 however it is in the OpenGL 3.2 core so it should
	be widely supported.
	All 3 light types are supported which means parallel lights (sun) use
	scene independent cascaded shadow mapping.
	The implementation is very fast with single taps (400 fps average per
	scene on a GTX 660 ti OC) however I defaulted it to 12 taps using a Poisson disc algorithm so the shadows look
	really good which should give you stable 100 fps on todays hardware (2014).

- Changed light interaction shaders to use Half-Lambert lighting like in Half-Life 2 to 
	make the game less dark. https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Half_Lambert

- True 64 bit HDR lighting with adaptive tone mapping and gamma-correct rendering in linear RGB space

- Enhanced Subpixel Morphological Antialiasing
	For more information see "Anti-Aliasing Methods in CryENGINE 3" and the docs at http://www.iryoku.com/smaa/

- Filmic post process effects like Technicolor color grading and film grain

- Additional ambient render pass to make the game less dark similar to the Quake 4 r_forceAmbient technique

___________________________________________________

9) CONSOLE VARIABLES
__________________________________________

r_antiAliasing - Different Anti-Aliasing modes

r_useShadowMapping [0 or 1] - Use soft shadow mapping instead of hard stencil shadows

r_useHDR [0 or 1] - Use High Dynamic Range lighting

r_hdrAutoExposure [0 or 1] - Adaptive tonemapping with HDR
	This allows to have very bright or very dark scenes but the camera will adopt to it so the scene won't loose details
	
r_exposure [0 .. 1] - Default 0.5, Controls brightness and affects HDR exposure key
	This is what you change in the video brightness options

r_useSSAO [0 .. 1] - Use Screen Space Ambient Occlusion to darken the corners in the scene
	
r_useFilmicPostProcessEffects [0 or 1] - Apply several post process effects to mimic a filmic look"


___________________________________________________

10) KNOWN ISSUES
__________________________________________

- HDR does not work with old-school stencil shadows

- MSAA anti-aliasing modes don't work with HDR: Use SMAA

- Some lights cause shadow acne with shadow mapping

- Some shadows might almost disappear due to the shadow filtering

___________________________________________________

11) BUG REPORTS
__________________________________________

RBDOOM-3-BFG is not perfect, it is not bug free as every other software.
For fixing as much problems as possible we need as much bug reports as possible.
We cannot fix anything if we do not know about the problems.

The best way for telling us about a bug is by submitting a bug report at our GitHub bug tracker page:

	https://github.com/RobertBeckebans/RBDOOM-3-BFG/issues?state=open

The most important fact about this tracker is that we cannot simply forget to fix the bugs which are posted there. 
It is also a great way to keep track of fixed stuff.

If you want to report an issue with the game, you should make sure that your report includes all information useful to characterize and reproduce the bug.

    * Search on Google
    * Include the computer's hardware and software description ( CPU, RAM, 3D Card, distribution, kernel etc. )
    * If appropriate, send a console log, a screenshot, an strace ..
    * If you are sending a console log, make sure to enable developer output:

              RBDoom3BFG.exe +set developer 1 +set logfile 2
			  
		You can find your qconsole.log on Windows in C:\Users\<your user name>\Saved Games\id Software\RBDOOM 3 BFG\base\

NOTE: We cannot help you with OS-specific issues like configuring OpenGL correctly, configuring ALSA or configuring the network.
	

___________________________________________________

12) GAME MODIFCATIONS
__________________________________________
	
The Doom 3 BFG Edition GPL Source Code release allows mod editing, in order for it to accept any change in your
mod directory, you should first specify your mod directory adding the following command to the launcher:

"+set fs_game modDirectoryName"

so it would end up looking like: RBDoom3BFG +set fs_game modDirectoryName


IMPORTANT: RBDOOM-3-BFG does not support old Doom 3 modiciations that include sourcecode modifications in binary form (.dll)
You can fork RBDOOM-3-BFG and create a new renamed binary that includes all required C++ game code modifications.
