DSDA-DOOM Linux compilation?


Recommended Posts

Looking for some help getting DSDA-Doom set up on Linux, it's ostensibly cross-platform but I haven't been able to find any binaries, nor find any info on how to build the damned thing.

 

Admittedly quite new to Linux so not very experienced with building stuff from git through the terminal. Anyone been through this and got it up and running?

What Linux distribution are you using? If you're using Debian or a distro based on it such as Ubuntu, it should be in the package manager, and if you're using Arch it's in the AUR. I believe there's a Copr package for Fedora too. If you're not using one of those you probably just have to build it from source. There are guides for building on Windows and Mac, and this old guide for building PrBoom+ on Linux (most of which still holds for dsda-doom, but the list of dependencies is a bit out of date).

I'm using Linux Mint Debian Edition. Unfortunately DSDA didn't show up anywhere in the package manager.

 

Did attempt that old guide but didn't have much luck with it. Will try again.

Look for specific errors during compiling and then google "missing-resource debian package-dev." Post compile output.
