Development is supported on Windows 10 and Windows 11 machines
Ensure the following programs are installed on the development machine.
The directory for vcpkg can be installed anywhere on the developement machine that is not directly inside the repository.
Once the repository has been set up, including running vcpkg\bootstrap-vcpkg.bat, project packages will need to be installed.
To do so, either run cpsc-585/vckpg-packages.bat, or manually install the following packages. If installing the packages manually, ensure that the triplet is used.
vcpkg packages
argh:x64-windows-static
fmt:x64-windows-static
freeglut:x64-windows-static
glfw3:x64-windows-static
glew:x64-windows-static
glad:x64-windows-static
glm:x64-windows-static
imgui:x64-windows-static
"imgui[opengl3-binding]:x64-windows-static"
"imgui[glfw-binding]:x64-windows-static"
libsndfile:x64-windows-static
openal-soft:x64-windows-static
stb:x64-windows-static
rapidjson:x64-windows-static
assimp:x64-windows-static
After running cpsc-585/vcpkg-packages.bat or manually installing the packages, run cmd.exe as an administrator and run the following:
> vcpkg\vcpkg.exe integrate remove
> vcpkg\vcpkg.exe integrate install
It is important to run integrate remove if you have previously run integrate install to resolve dependency issues between existing packages and new packages.
Open DustRiders/Dustriders.sln in Visual Studio and change the following project properties.
Make sure you are changing the correct configuration (release vs. debug) or the project will not compile correctly

Ensure PhysX has been installed and PhysX\physx\generate_projects.bat has been run, with option (1) selected.
Using the document PhysX Setup (provided by Travis Dow), follow all the steps in 1. Setup, and steps 8 and 11 in 3. Including PhysX in Your Project
Do not change the project properties for DustRiders. They have already been established in the previous step.
Choose the configuration you want to build from the options provided in Visual Studio, and build using the debugger or build tool. The application should build and launch.
