## JoeQuake SDL Linux fork

This is a fork of Joe's JoeQuake repository, the speedrunning focused Quake engine. It adds files to allow building the SDL version of JoeQuake on Linux. To build first install dependencies:

# For Ubuntu users
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install cmake build-essential libz-dev libsdl2-dev libjpeg-dev libgl1-mesa-dev libpng-dev

# For Arch users
sudo pacman -Syu base-devel cmake zlib sdl2 libjpeg-turbo mesa libpng

...and then run the following from the repository root:

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
# binary is written to `<repo root>/build/trunk/joequake-gl`

This branch is heavily based on Sphere's Linux fork of JoeQuake.

The original JoeQuake README is below.

Description

JoeQuake is a custom Quake engine designed exclusively for speedrunning.
It was originated from the official id software GLQuake source code.

JoeQuake features several improvements over the vanilla GLQuake client, just to name a few:

• Independent server-client physics
• Ghost mode recording
• Browsable Demos/Maps/Mods menus
• Restructured, more detailed Options menu
• Mouse cursor in menu
• Supporting FitzQuake and RMQ protocols
• Supporting a wide range of custom mods (including Quake remastered)
• Colored static and dynamic lighting
• External texture formats (TGA/PNG/JPG)
• Capturing demos to AVI file
