Development

Building from Source

Ring Racers is built using a compatible C++ toolchain (GCC, MinGW, Clang and Apple Clang as of this writing), CMake, and Microsoft vcpkg. The compiler and runtime libraries must support the ISO C++17 standard and ISO C11 standard.

On Linux platforms, you will need the following libraries available on the system.

  • libcurl
  • zlib
  • libpng
  • libogg
  • libvorbis
  • libvpx
  • libyuv
  • SDL2

On Windows and macOS, you will need to install vcpkg instead to build these dependencies alongside the game.

To configure and build the game, there are CMake presets (declared in CMakePresets.json). These presets require the ninja build script tool in addition to cmake and your C++ toolchain. Here is a non-exhaustive list of them:

  • ninja-debug: non-optimized, assertions enabled
  • ninja-develop: optimized, assertions enabled
  • ninja-release: optimized
  • ninja-x86_mingw_static_vcpkg-debug
  • ninja-x86_mingw_static_vcpkg-develop
  • ninja-x86_mingw_static_vcpkg-release
  • ninja-x64_osx_vcpkg-debug
  • ninja-x64_osx_vcpkg-develop
  • ninja-x64_osx_vcpkg-release
  • ninja-arm64_osx_vcpkg-debug
  • ninja-arm64_osx_vcpkg-develop
  • ninja-arm64_osx_vcpkg-release

These presets depend on the VCPKG_ROOT environment variable being specified before the first run of the cmake command. Their build directories are pre-configured as subdirectories of build/.

After all prerequisites are set-up, configure and build using the following commands, adjusting according to your target system:

cmake --preset ninja-x86_mingw_static_vcpkg-develop
cmake --build --preset ninja-x86_mingw_static_vcpkg-develop
