========================================================================== Cafu Game and Graphics Engine http://www.cafu.de Demo Readme info@cafu.de ========================================================================== Welcome to Cafu, the open-source Game and Graphics Engine for multiplayer, cross-platform, real-time 3D Action. This readme gets you started with the Cafu binary demo packages. The demo packages are archives that contain precompiled program executables and everything else that is required to run the Cafu engine demo. If you are interested in getting and compiling the source code instead, refer to the Cafu documentation at http://www.cafu.de/wiki/ Contents of this file: 1. Quick-start for Windows 2. Quick-start for Linux 3. Documentation 4. Release Notes 5. License 6. Contact ========================================================================== 1. Quick-start for Windows ========================================================================== You can run the Cafu demo by clicking on the Cafu.exe file that is in the same directory as this README.txt file. Your Windows or Personal Firewall may report Cafu opening a network connection. This is because Cafu starts a client and a server, then connects to itself even for pure single-player games. Thus, please set your firewall to not block Cafu from network access. The Cafu World Editor "CaWE" is started analogously by clicking on the CaWE.exe file in the same directory. More information about the Cafu engine and the editor CaWE can be found in the documentation at http://www.cafu.de/wiki/ ========================================================================== 2. Quick-start for Linux ========================================================================== Extracting the Cafu .tar.gz archive makes automatically sure that the executable bit is properly set for all relevant files, and thus you can (double-)click the "Cafu-run" file that is in the same directory as this README.txt file in order to start the Cafu engine. "Cafu-run" is a shell script that sets the proper working directory before starting the Cafu executable. Alternatively, you can run Cafu from a command line shell by cd'ing into the same directory as this file (e.g. cd ~carsten/Cafu/ ), and then just type ./Cafu The Cafu World Editor "CaWE" is started analogously by clicking on the "CaWE-run" file or by running ./CaWE-bin respectively. More information about the Cafu engine and the editor CaWE can be found in the documentation at http://www.cafu.de/wiki/ ========================================================================== 3. Documentation ========================================================================== If you need help, please refer to the user manual at http://www.cafu.de/wiki/. It has a "Quick Start" section that briefly summarizes everything to get you started, and also has more detailed information about installing, de-installing, requirements etc. Additional documentation and information about all advanced aspects of Cafu (e.g. map editing and development) is found at a) the Cafu wiki at http://www.cafu.de/wiki/ b) the Cafu forum at http://www.cafu.de/forum/ ========================================================================== 4. Release Notes ========================================================================== Known problems specific to all supported platforms: None. Known problems specific to the Windows platform: a) Occasionally distorted background music playback in the TechDemo map near the base of the ladder to the emergency exit. Known problems specific to the Linux platform: a) Screen resolution cannot be changed at runtime (this is a limitation of the X server, not Cafu). b) Blank/black screen after starting. On some systems, it takes a long time between starting the engine and the initial appearance of the "Loading..." screen. The screen is then fully black, and it takes up to one or two minutes until the splash screen appears. This problem has only been observed on systems that do not meet the minimum system requirements, and is due to inadequate hardware and/or driver support. ========================================================================== 5.
