+## Compatibility matrix
+
+|System |Build |Bundle |Run |Build requirements |
+|---------|---------|----------|---------|----------------------------------------------|

+|FreeBSD |**Yes** |_not yet_ |**Yes** |_GCC or Clang_ |

+
+NetRadiant is known to build and run properly on Linux, FreeBSD and Windows using MSYS2. NetRadiant is known to build on macOS using Homebrew, but can't display things properly without a modified GtkGLExt which is yet to be upstreamed, and issues are known. Windows build is known to work well on wine, which can be used as a fallback on macOS.
+
+At this time library bundling is only supported on Windows/MSYS2 and Linux. Since bundling copies things from the host, a clean build environment has to be used in order to get a clean bundle. Linux bundle does not ship GTK (users are expected to have a working GTK environment with GtkGlExt installed).

-# Dependencies
+## Dependencies
-* OpenGL
-* LibXml2
-* GTK2
-* GtkGLExt
-* LibJpeg
-* LibPng
-* LibWebp
-* Minizip
-* ZLib
+* OpenGL, LibXml2, GTK2, GtkGLExt, LibJpeg, LibPng, LibWebp, Minizip, ZLib.
-## msys2
+To fetch default game packages you'll need Git, Subversion, Wget and `unzip`.
-Under MSYS2, the mingw shell must be used.
-If you use MSYS2 over SSH, add `mingw64` to the path this way (given you compile for 64 bit windows):
+### Ubuntu:
-```
-export PATH="/mingw64/bin:${PATH}"`
+```sh
+apt-get install --reinstall build-essential cmake \
+ lib{x11,gtk2.0,gtkglext1,xml2,jpeg,webp,minizip}-dev \
+ git subversion unzip wget
```
-Install the dependencies this way:
+If you plan to build a bundle, you also need to install `uuid-runtime patchelf`
+This is enough to build NetRadiant but you may also install those extra packages to get proper GTK2 graphical and sound themes: `gnome-themes-extra gtk2-engines-murrine libcanberra-gtk-module`
-```
-pacman -S --needed base-devel mingw-w64-$(uname -m)-{toolchain,cmake,make,gtk2,gtkglext,libwebp,minizip-git} git
-```
-Explicitely use `mingw-w64-x86_64-` or `mingw-w64-i686-` prefix if you need to target a non-default architecture.
+### MSYS2:
-You may have to install `subversion` to fetch some non-default game packages.
+Under MSYS2, the mingw shell must be used.
+If you use MSYS2 over SSH, add `mingw64` to the path this way (given you compile for 64 bit Windows, replace with `mingw32` if you target 32 bit Windows instead):
-## macOS:
+```sh
+export PATH="/mingw64/bin:${PATH}"
+```
+Install the dependencies this way:
+
+```sh
+pacman -S --needed base-devel git \
+ mingw-w64-$(uname -m)-{ntldd-git,subversion,unzip,toolchain,cmake,make,gtk2,gtkglext,libwebp,minizip-git}
```
-brew install gcc cmake Caskroom/cask/xquartz gtkglext pkgconfig minizip webp coreutils gnu-sed
+
+Explicitely use `mingw-w64-x86_64-` or `mingw-w64-i686-` prefix instead of `mingw-w64-$(uname -m)` if you need to target a non-default architecture.
+
+
+### macOS:
+
+```sh
+brew install cmake gtkglext pkgconfig minizip webp coreutils gnu-sed wget
brew link --force gettext
```
-# Submodules
- * Crunch (optional, disabled by default, only supported with CMake build)
+## Submodules
-If you have not used `--recursive` option at `git clone` time, you can fetch Crunch this way (run it within the NetRadiant repository):
+ * Crunch (optional, not built if submodule is not present)
+If you have not used `--recursive` option at `git clone` time, you can fetch Crunch this way (run this within the `netradiant` repository):
-```
+```sh
git submodule update --init --recursive
```
-# Compiling
-This project uses the usual CMake workflow:
+## Simple compilation
+
+It is required to first download the sources using `git` (do not use tarballs) and to have dependencies installed, see [Getting the sources](#getting-the-sources) and [Dependencies](#dependencies) above.
-## Debug
+### Easy builder assistant
+If you have standard needs and use well-known platform and operating system, you may try the provided `easy-builder` script which may be enough for you, you can run it this way:
+
+```sh
+./easy-builder
```
-cmake -G "Unix Makefiles" -H. -Bbuild && cmake --build build -- -j$(nproc)
+
+If everything went right, you'll find your netradiant build in `install/` subdirectory.
+
+If you need to build a debug build (to get help from a developer, for example), you can do it this way:
+
+```sh
+./easy-builder --debug
```
-## Release
+By default, build tools and compilers are using the `build/` directory as workspace.
+
+
+## Advanced compilation
+
+### Initial build
+
+This project uses the usual CMake workflow:
+
+
+#### Debug build
+```sh
+cmake -G "Unix Makefiles" -S. -Bbuild -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug
+cmake --build build -- -j$(nproc)
```
-cmake -G "Unix Makefiles" -H. -Bbuild -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release && cmake --build build -- -j$(nproc)
+
+
+#### Release build
+
+```sh
+cmake -G "Unix Makefiles" -S. -Bbuild -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
+cmake --build build -- -j$(nproc)
```
-On Mac you have to add this to the first cmake call:
+### Subsequent builds
+The initial build will download the gamepacks and build NetRadiant and tools. If you frequently recompile you can skip downloading the gamepacks:
+
+```sh
+cmake --build build --target binaries -- -j$(nproc)
```
--DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=/usr/local/bin/gcc-9 -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=/usr/local/bin/g++-9 -DOPENGL_INCLUDE_DIR=/opt/X11/include -DOPENGL_gl_LIBRARY=/opt/X11/lib/libGL.dylib
+
+You should still periodically update gamepacks:
+
+```sh
+cmake --build build --target gamepacks
```

+## Additonnal information
-## Note about Crunch
+### About Crunch
The crnlib used to decode `.crn` files is the one from [Dæmon](http://github.com/DaemonEngine/Daemon) which is the one by [Unity](https://github.com/Unity-Technologies/crunch/tree/unity) made cross-platform and slightly improved. Since Unity brokes compatibility with [BinomialLLC's legacy tree](https://github.com/BinomialLLC/crunch) it's required to use either the `crunch` tool from Dæmon or the one from Unity to compress textures that have to be read by radiant or q3map2.
