> Ported version of Minecraft Legacy Console edition to other systems
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
4JCraft is a modified version of the Minecraft Console Legacy Edition aimed on porting old Minecraft to different platforms (such as Linux, Android, Emscripten, etc.) and refactoring the codebase to improve organization and use modern C++ features.

## Scope & Platform Support
|
|
|
|
At the moment, we're aiming to support the following platforms:
|
|
|
|
- Linux (~85%, *rough estimate*)
|
|
- Emscripten (not started)
|
|
- macOS (not started)
|
|
- iOS (not started)
|
|
- Android (not started)
|
|
|
|
> [!WARNING]
|
|
> There is NO Windows support, for that, go to [smartcmd/MinecraftConsoles](https://github.com/smartcmd/MinecraftConsoles/).
|
|
|
|
> All efforts are focused towards a native Linux port, OpenGL rendering pipeline, and modernizing the existing LCE codebase/tooling to make future platform ports easier.
|
|
>
|
|
> `Windows64` and other platforms originally supported by LCE are currently unsupported, since the original Visual Studio tooling has been stripped from this repository and replaced with our own.

## Building (Linux)
|
|
|
|
### Dependencies
|
|
|
|
Install the following packages before building (Debian/Ubuntu names shown):
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo apt install \
|
|
build-essential cmake \
|
|
libglfw3-dev libgl-dev libglu1-mesa-dev \
|
|
libopenal-dev libvorbis-dev \
|
|
libpng-dev libpthread-stubs0-dev
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Arch/Manjaro
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo pacman -S base-devel gcc pkgconf cmake glfw-x11 mesa openal libvorbis glu
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
> [!TIP]
|
|
> If you are on wayland, you may swap `glfw-x11` to `glfw-wayland` for native wayland windowing instead of xwayland.
|
|
|
|
#### Fedora/Red Hat/Nobara
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo dnf in gcc gcc-c++ make cmake glfw-devel mesa-libGL-devel mesa-libGLU-devel openal-soft-devel libvorbis-devel libpng-devel openssl-devel
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Docker
|
|
|
|
If you don't want to deal with installing dependencies, you can use the included devcontainer. Open the project in VS Code with the [Dev Containers](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-vscode-remote.remote-containers) extension and it will set everything up for you - GCC 15, Meson, Ninja, lld, and all the libraries.
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, you can build and use the container manually:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker build -t 4jcraft-dev .devcontainer/
|
|
docker run -it -v $(pwd):/workspaces/4jcraft -w /workspaces/4jcraft 4jcraft-dev bash
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Configure & Build
|
|
|
|
This project uses the [Meson](https://mesonbuild.com/) build system (with [Ninja](https://ninja-build.org/)).
|
|
|
|
> [!IMPORTANT]
|
|
> If you are using GCC, then GCC 15 or newer is currently *required* to build this project. Ubuntu installations in particular may have older versions preinstalled, so verify your compiler version with `gcc --version`.
|
|
|
|
#### Install Tooling
|
|
|
|
Follow [this Quickstart guide](https://mesonbuild.com/Quick-guide.html) for installing or building Meson and Ninja on your respective distro.
|
|
|
|
#### Configure & Build
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# 1. Configure a build directory (we'll name it `build`)
|
|
meson setup build
|
|
|
|
# 2. Compile the project
|
|
meson compile -C build
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
> [!TIP]
|
|
>
|
|
> For the fastest compilation speeds, you may want to use the compilers and linkers provided by an [LLVM toolchain](https://llvm.org/) (`clang`/`lld`) over your system compiler and linker. To do this, install `clang` and `lld`, and configure your build using the `llvm_native.txt` nativescript in `/scripts`:
|
|
>
|
|
> ```bash
|
|
> meson setup --native-file ./scripts/llvm_native.txt build
|
|
> ```
|
|
>
|
|
> ...or if you've already configured a build directory:
|
|
>
|
|
> ```bash
|
|
> meson setup --native-file ./scripts/llvm_native.txt build --reconfigure
|
|
> ```
|
|
|
|
The binary is output to:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
./build/Minecraft.Client/Minecraft.Client
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Clean
|
|
|
|
To perform a clean compilation:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
meson compile --clean -C build
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
...or to reconfigure an existing build directory:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
meson setup build --reconfigure
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
...or to hard reset the build directory:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
rm -rf ./build
|
|
meson setup build
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Running
|
|
|
|
In order to run the compiled binary, you have a compiled copy of the game's assets in your current working directory. These assets are automatically copied to the `Minecraft.Client` folder in your build directory. To run the game, your current working directory must be in this folder.
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
cd build/Minecraft.Client
|
|
./Minecraft.Client
|
|
```
