The D3classic server, ported to C++.

Porting it for better maintainability and for fun.

Roadmap

• Port the primary server functionality (See issue #1)
• First pass refactor
• Bring up to date with latest CPE (In Progress)
• Second pass refactor
• Bring in lesser used features if requested

Not slated to port

Currently, there are a few parts of the existing D3 server that I'm not planning to port. Those are:

• Map Overview Images
• Multi-Language support
• Building text from a font .png file
• External C/C++ Plugins

If you would like those reach out to let me know, and of course Pull Requests are welcome if you would like to contribute.

Compiling on Windows

1. Install VSCode, msys2 (x64)
2. Install the winpthread library (pacman -S mingw-w64-clang-x86_64-libwinpthread-git)
3. Install the dev zlib library (pacman -S zlib-devel)
4. Install the CMake Library (pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-cmake)
5. Install the Lua Library (pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-lua)
6. Add msys mingw64 to your PATH.
7. Open VSCode, install the CMake Tools and C++ Plugins.
8. Open the command pallet (ctrl+shift-p), go to preferences: open settings.json, and enter the following (replacing for your path if different);

    "cmake.cmakePath": "C:\\msys64\\mingw64\\bin\\cmake.exe",
    "cmake.mingwSearchDirs": ["C:\\msys64\\mingw64\\bin"],
    "cmake.generator": "MinGW Makefiles",

9. Restart VS code
10. Clone the repo and open it
11. Configure your C++ kits to GCC/Mingw32 (may require a manual scan)
12. Press the build button!

Compiling on Windows (MSVC)

1. Make sure you have Visual Studio with C++ Make tools installed
2. Install vcpkg (instructions here)
3. install the requisite libraries (vcpkg install Lua , vcpkg install SQLite3, vcpkg install zlib) 3a. If you are using 64 bit builds, add :x64-windows to the end (vcpkg install SQLite3:x64-windows)
4. Clone the repo and open visual studio. Use the open folder option to open the folder.
5. CMake should auto-detect and autoconfigure, and you should be good to go!

Compling on Linux

These instructions used on Fedora

install your distros build-essential files

Install lua

clone the repo and open it up in terminal

mkdir build && cd build

cmake ../

make
