This fixes a regression caused by PR #923 (the PR that moved rendering to be GPU-based) where the interpolation of the horizontal and vertical warp backgrounds (in over-30-FPS mode) was in the wrong direction, which makes them look blurry. This happens because the arguments to the `lerp` function were in the wrong, reverse order. On the VVVVVV Discord server, Ally raised the argument that they were in the same order before she made the changes; therefore the previous code was also incorrect and it wasn't her fault. However, this argument is incorrect, because in that case, the reverse order _is_ the correct order. The reason that it's now the wrong order is because the output of `lerp` is now being used as the argument to a source rectangle. Previously, the output of `lerp` was being used as the offset argument to `ScrollSurface`, which is analogous to being a destination rectangle. Fixes #1038. |

How to Build
VVVVVV's official desktop versions are built with the following environments:
- Windows: Visual Studio 2010
- macOS: Xcode CLT, currently targeting 10.9 SDK
- GNU/Linux: CentOS 7
The engine depends solely on SDL2 2.24.0+. All other dependencies are statically linked into the engine. The development libraries for Windows can be downloaded from SDL's website, Linux developers can find the dev libraries from their respective repositories, and macOS developers should compile and install from source. (If you're on Ubuntu and your Ubuntu is too old to have this SDL version, then see here for workarounds.)
Since VVVVVV 2.4, git submodules are used for the
third party libraries.
After cloning, run git submodule update --init to set all of these up.
You can also use this command whenever the submodules need to be updated.
Steamworks support is included and the DLL is loaded dynamically, you do not need the SDK headers and there is no special Steam or non-Steam version. The current implementation has been tested with Steamworks SDK v1.46.
To build the Make and Play edition of the game, uncomment #define MAKEANDPLAY
in MakeAndPlay.h.
To generate the projects on Windows:
# Put your SDL2 folders somewhere nice!
mkdir flibitBuild
cd flibitBuild
cmake -A Win32 -G "Visual Studio 10 2010" .. -DSDL2_INCLUDE_DIRS="C:\SDL2-2.24.0\include" -DSDL2_LIBRARIES="C:\SDL2-2.24.0\lib\x86\SDL2;C:\SDL2-2.24.0\lib\x86\SDL2main"
Note that on some systems, the SDL2_LIBRARIES list on Windows may need
SDL2/SDL2main to have .lib at the end of them. The reason for this
inconsistency is unknown.
Also note that if you're using a Visual Studio later than 2010, you will need to
change the -G string accordingly; otherwise you will get a weird cryptic
error. Refer to the list below:
- VS 2012:
"Visual Studio 11 2012" - VS 2013:
"Visual Studio 12 2013" - VS 2015:
"Visual Studio 14 2015" - VS 2017:
"Visual Studio 15 2017" - VS 2019:
"Visual Studio 16 2019" - VS 2022:
"Visual Studio 17 2022"
To generate everywhere else:
mkdir flibitBuild
cd flibitBuild
cmake ..
macOS may be fussy about the SDK version. How to fix this is up to the whims of however Apple wants to make CMAKE_OSX_SYSROOT annoying to configure and retain each time Xcode updates.
Including data.zip
You'll need the data.zip file from VVVVVV to actually run the game! You can grab it from your copy of the game, or you can download it for free from the Make and Play page. Put this file next to your executable and the game should run.
This is intended for personal use only - our license doesn't allow you to actually distribute this data.zip file with your own forks without getting permission from us first. See LICENSE.md for more details. (If you've got a project in mind that requires distributing this file, get in touch!)
A Word About Compiler Quirks
(Note: This section only applies to version 2.2 of the source code, which is the initial commit of this repository. Since then, much hard work has been put in to fix many undefined behaviors. If you're compiling the latest version of the source code, ignore this section.)
This engine is super fussy about optimization levels and runtime checks. In particular, the Windows version absolutely positively must be compiled in Debug mode, with /RTC enabled. If you build in Release mode, or have /RTC disabled, the game behaves dramatically different in ways that were never fully documented (bizarre softlocks, out-of-bounds issues that don't show up in tools like Valgrind, stuff like that). There are lots of things about this old code that could be cleaned up, polished, rewritten, and so on, but this is the one that will probably bite you the hardest when setting up your own build, regardless of platform.
We hope you'll enjoy messing with the source anyway!
Love, flibit
