• Play a single player game just like in Age of War.
• Play a game with your friend or a random dude.
• Participate in tournaments.
• Make a bot play for you, so you can have a rest during the game (and, hopefully, not lose).
• See your stats, i.e. rating, number of games won/lost online, etc.
• Chat with your friends inplace during a tournament or a game.

• TGUI

Sorry, we didn't manage to make it easy to install all dependencies with CMake, so you will need to suffer try hard to install the project. To be clear, we don't guarantee that the method below works.

For example, we didn't manage to install War of Ages on a random computer run on Windows in 1.5 hours. :( Whereas, on another computer everything went smoothly and the project was installed in 7 minutes.

So, good luck!

You will need MSYS2, which you can install here. You will also need CMake and git.

To install CMake you could use MSYS2 also:

pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-cmake 
pacman -S make

Also, make sure you've added directories with cmake.exe and make.exe to your PATH variable.

Once you've installed them, run the following lines in MSYS2 to install all libs except of TGUI:

pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-sfml 
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-boost
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-sqlite3 

If you are getting error while installing packages from MSYS2 try updating packages info with:

pacman -Syyu

Now open cmd and just run the following code line by line (skipping comments obviously) from an empty directory to install TGUI and build the project:

git clone https://github.com/kholkinilya/war_of_ages.git
mkdir -p war_of_ages\build
cd war_of_ages\build

git clone https://github.com/texus/TGUI.git
mkdir -p TGUI\build
cd TGUI\build

# MSYS Makefiles is one of possible generators, you can use another one
cmake .. -G="MSYS Makefiles" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -DTGUI_CXX_STANDARD=17 -DTGUI_BACKEND=SFML_GRAPHICS -DTGUI_BUILD_GUI_BUILDER=0 
cmake --build . -j4
cd ..\..

cmake .. -G="MSYS Makefiles" -DTGUI_DIR=.\build\TGUI\build
cmake --build . -j4

cp TGUI\build\lib\tgui-d.dll .\client
mkdir -p ..\client\resources\sounds\music

client\war_of_ages_client.exe

Last beat is to install music (it's optional actually).

• Just put the music you'd like to play while in lobby in client/resources/sounds/lobby_music.{wav, ogg, flac}.

• Also, you can install a battle music into client/resources/sounds/battle_music.{wav, ogg, flac}.

We personally recommend this one for lobby and this one (Middle_age_RPG_Theme_1.ogg) for battle.

Seems to us that you are capable of installing it yourself since you are a Linux user.
