Prerequisites

The projects are set to build with the following configurations:

  • Windows 10 SDK - 10.0.17134.0

  • Visual Studio 2017 - v141, v140

  • System: Ryzen/GCN. VQEngine hasn't been tested on other systems. Feel free to open an issue in case of crashes / errors.

Build

https://ci.appveyor.com/api/projects/status/8u0a89j15naw0jlp/branch/master?svg=true

Run PRE_BUILD.bat once to initialize the submodules, and run BUILD.bat or BUILD.py to build VQEngine. ./Build/_artifacts will contain the VQEngine executable built in release mode and the data and shaders needed to run the demo. You need Visual Studio 2017 installed for the build scripts to work.

Scripts
PRE_BUILD.bat Initializes and updates submodules required to build the project.
Run this script the first time you clone the repo.
BUILD_CLEAN.bat Calls 'Clean Solution' on VQEngine.sln and deletes the contents of the Build folder.
Run this script before building VQEngine.
BUILD.bat Builds VQEngine.
CONSOLIDATE_ARTIFACTS.bat Copies binaries and resources required to run VQEngine into Build/_artifacts folder.
Run this script after running BUILD.bat.
PRE_BUILD_CLEAN.bat Deletes contents of the submodule folders.
CLEAN_SHADER_CACHE.bat Removes the ShaderCache/ folder from VQEngines temporary directory: %APPDATA%\VQEngine
