SuperTuxKart

Build Status AppVeyor Build Status #supertuxkart on the freenode IRC network

SuperTuxKart is a free kart racing game. It focuses on fun and not on realistic kart physics. Instructions can be found on the in-game help page.

The SuperTuxKart homepage can be found at https://supertuxkart.net/. There is also our FAQ and information on how get in touch with the community

Hardware Requirements

To run SuperTuxKart, make sure that your computer's specifications are equal or higher than the following specifications:

  • A graphics card capable of 3D rendering - NVIDIA GeForce 8 series and newer (GeForce 8100 or newer), AMD/ATI Radeon HD 4000 series and newer, Intel HD Graphics 3000 and newer. OpenGL >= 3.1
  • You should have a CPU that's running at 1 GHz or faster.
  • You'll need at least 512 MB of free VRAM (video memory).
  • Minimum disk space: 800 MB
  • Ideally, you'll want a joystick with at least 6 buttons.

License

The software is released under the GNU General Public License (GPL) which can be found in the file COPYING in the same directory as this file. Information about the licenses for the artwork is contained in data/licenses.

3D coordinates

A reminder for those who are looking at the code and 3D models:

SuperTuxKart: X right, Y up, Z forwards

Blender: X right, Y forwards, Z up

The export utilities perform the needed transformation, so in Blender you just work with the XY plane as ground, and things will appear fine in STK (using XZ as ground in the code, obviously).

Building from source

In order to build SuperTuxKart from source, you'll need both the code and the assets (See https://supertuxkart.net/Source_control for more information):

git clone https://github.com/supertuxkart/stk-code stk-code
svn co https://svn.code.sf.net/p/supertuxkart/code/stk-assets stk-assets

Building SuperTuxKart on Linux

Dependencies

To build SuperTuxKart from source, you'll need to install the following packages:

  • OpenGL (mesa)
  • OpenAL (recommended: openal-soft-devel)
  • Ogg (libogg-dev)
  • Vorbis (libvorbis-dev)
  • Freetype (libfreetype6-dev)
  • libcurl (libcurl-devel)
  • libbluetooth (bluez-devel)
  • libpng (libpng-devel)
  • zlib (zlib-devel)
  • jpeg (libjpeg-turbo-devel)

Ubuntu command:

sudo apt-get install build-essential cmake libbluetooth-dev \
libcurl4-gnutls-dev libfreetype6-dev libfribidi-dev libgl1-mesa-dev \
libjpeg-dev libogg-dev libopenal-dev libpng-dev libvorbis-dev libxrandr-dev \
mesa-common-dev pkg-config zlib1g-dev

In-game recorder

In order to build the in-game recorder for STK, you have to install libopenglrecorder from your distribution or compile it yourself, get it here. Compilation instruction is explained there, if you don't need such feature, pass -DBUILD_RECORDER=off to cmake.

Compiling

Run the following commands to compile SuperTuxKart:

mkdir cmake_build
cd cmake_build
cmake ..
make -j4

STK can then be run from the build directory with bin/supertuxkart

Further options

To create a debug version of STK, run:

cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug

You can install your build system-wide:

sudo make install

The default install location is /usr/local, i.e. the data files will be written to /usr/local/share/games/supertuxkart, the executable will be copied to /usr/local/bin. To change the default installation location, specify CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX when running cmake, e.g.: cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/stk

Building SuperTuxKart on Windows

To Build SuperTuxKart on Windows, follow these instructions:

  1. Download and install Visual Studio from here: Visual Studio - Download. The free Visual Studio Community edition works fine.
  2. Download the SuperTuxKart source package from either SuperTuxKart download area - SourceForge.net or SuperTuxKart.net - Source Control, and unpack it. Note: If you downloaded the source package from here: SuperTuxKart.net - Source Control, then both stk-code and stk-assets must be in the same directory, otherwise the build can result in failure
  3. Download the Windows dependencies package from either SuperTuxKart download area: Dependecies - SourceForge.net or SuperTuxKart on GitHub - Dependencies, and unpack it; then, copy the dependencies directory from either the windows or the windows_64bit directories into the stk-code directory
  4. Download CMake from here: CMake - download page, install it; once CMake is installed, double click on the CMake icon on your desktop, and point it towards your stk-code directory in the 'Where is the source code' field, and point it to a directory called build or bld
  5. Press 'Configure'; CMake will ask you if it is OK to create the aformentioned directory, press Yes. CMake will then ask you about your version of Visual Studio. Confirm your selection; Please look at the table below to avoid confusion between version numbers and releases of Visual Studio; CMake will begin creating the required files for the build in the directory.
  6. Navigate to your build directory and open the SuperTuxKart.sln file; Visual Studio will now load the solution.
  7. In the 'Solution Explorer', right click on the supertuxkart project and select "Set as StartUp project"
  8. Open the 'Build' menu and select 'Build Solution'; or, press the default keyboard shortcut: CTRL + SHIFT + B to build the solution.

Note: To avoid confusion between releases and versions, refer to this table:

Visual Studio Release Version
Visual Studio 2017 15
Visual Studio 2015 14
Visual Studio 2013 13

Building SuperTuxKart on Windows (from PowerShell/Command line)

  1. Download and install Visual Studio from here: Visual Studio - Download, the free Visual Studio Community edition works fine.

  2. Download a source package from either SuperTuxKart 0.9.2 download area - SourceForge.net or SuperTuxKart.net - Source Control NOTE: the stk-code and stk-assets directories must be in the same directory

  3. Download the Windows dependencies package from either SuperTuxKart download area - SourceForge.net or SuperTuxKart on GitHub - Dependencies and unpack the archive; once unpacked, copy the dependencies directory from either the windows or the windows_64bit directories into the stk-code directory

  4. Download CMake from here: CMake - download page; and install it. Navigate to the stk-code directory; and create an directory called "build":

mkdir build
cd build
  1. Once inside the build directory; run CMake to start the compilation process:
cmake ..
  1. Now that CMake finished configuring and creating the necessary files for the build, run the build command in the same directory:
msbuild.exe SuperTuxKart.sln 

SuperTuxKart can now be run as bin\Debug\supertuxkart.exe or bin\Release\supertuxkart.exe

Building SuperTuxKart on macOS

Getting Started

Install the developer tools, either from the OS X Install DVD or from Apple's website.

If you have never built anything before, you have create /usr/local/include/ first:

sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/include/

Symlink the include-folder of OpenGL framework to /usr/local/include/GL (Unix programs have an easier time finding it this way):

sudo ln -s /System/Library/Frameworks/OpenGL.framework/Versions/A/Headers/ /usr/local/include/GL

On OS X 10.9.5, you might need the following workaround:

sudo ln -s `xcrun --show-sdk-path`/usr/include/ /usr/include
sudo ln -s `xcrun --show-sdk-path`/System/Library/Frameworks/OpenGL.framework/Headers/ /usr/local/include/OpenGL

The first link is required in order to find libcurl, the second to find opengl.

Download pre-built dependencies from here and put the frameworks in [hard disk root]/Library/Frameworks

CMake

CMake is used to build STK. At this time CMake will not make a binary that is ready for distribution.

You'll have to run these commands inside your stk-code directory.

Building

With clang:

mkdir cmake_build
cd cmake_build
cmake ..
make

With GCC:

mkdir cmake_build
cd cmake_build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=/usr/bin/g++ -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=/usr/bin/gcc
make

Building on 10.10 with 10.9 compatibility:

cmake .. -DCMAKE_OSX_SYSROOT=/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.9.sdk  -DCMAKE_OSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.9

Xcode

Place an additional copy of the dependencies into Users/<YOUR_USERNAME>/Library/Frameworks. Then cd to your cloned stk-code directory and execute the following commands:

mkdir xcode_build && cd xcode_build
cmake .. -GXcode

Use Finder to navigate to your stk-code/xcode_build folder and open the newly generated Xcode project (SuperTuxKart.xcodeproj).

You can then build the project in Xcode using Product -> Build

Note: Xcode is much less well tested than makefiles, so there may be issues when trying to use Xcode.
