README

veesem

veesem is an experimental V.Smile emulator. Game compatibility is generally quite good from what I have tested so far, though more features, a more advanced UI and better accuracy are future targets.

Build instructions

  • Required dependencies: SDL2, OpenGL, CMake (for building)
  • Supported compilers: GCC or Clang with C++20 support. MSVC is not supported.

Steps

  1. Create a build directory and change working directory to it.
  2. Run cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release.
    • ⚠️ If you do not specify -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release and have no optimizing flags defined in the CXXFLAGS environment variable, the emulation speed of your build will be significantly slower and may lag frequently.
    • When building on Windows, you may need to specify the path of your SDL2 MinGW development package directory with -DCMAKE_MODULE_PATH, e.g. -DCMAKE_MODULE_PATH=~/SDL2-2.30.11/x86_64-w64-mingw32/.
  3. Run cmake --build .. Add -j flag followed by number of threads for parallel building.
  4. You should now have a working veesem executable.
    • For Windows, remember to also copy the DLL from the SDL2 development package directory to the directory of the executable. The DLL can usually be found in x86_64-w64-mingw32/bin.
  5. Optionally, you can install it into your system with cmake --install ..
