How to build (Linux 32-bit binary on Linux)

This build uses DirectX 11 through the dxvk-native project. CMake will automatically download and build the sources.

Note: Looking around using the mouse is not supported right now.

git clone https://github.com/rrika/cdcEngineDXHR.git
cd cdcEngineDXHR
mkdir native_build
cd native_build
cmake .. -DNATIVE_BUILD=ON
make

How to build (Windows 32-bit binary on Linux)

This build requires the Windows SDK. There exists a Rust tool named xwin that can download it on non-windows systems. See the rustup instructions for how to install Rust. Once that is done you can build and run xwin.

cargo install xwin --locked
xwin --accept-license --arch x86 splat
mv .xwin-cache/splat winsdk # need this specific folder name
# rm -rf .xwin-cache # if you want

The CMake build of this project expects to be in a directory adjacent to winsdk.

git clone https://github.com/rrika/cdcEngineDXHR.git
cd cdcEngineDXHR
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make

How to build (Windows 32-bit binary on Windows)

In Visual Studio 2019 choose "Open a local folder" on start-up. VS should detect the CMakeLists.txt file and set up the build for you. Be sure to select x86, not x64.

How to run

This project requires a copy of Deus Ex: Human Revolution Director's Cut to run. In the installation location you will find a number of files:

BIGFILE.000
BIGFILE.001
BIGFILE.002
...
DXHRDC.exe

Run the binary as follows:

export BIGFILE=path/to/game/BIGFILE.000
./dxhr     # for linux build
./dxhr.exe # for windows build

In Visual Studio you can set the environment to BIGFILE=C:/path/to/game/BIGFILE.000 in the project properties.
