C-Dogs SDL mailing list

C-Dogs SDL has been ported with a Unix development environment. In theory, C-Dogs SDL could run on any system that is supported by SDL1.2. See the SDL website - http://www.libsdl.org for more about SDL itself.

C-Dogs SDL runs on Linux, *BSD, Windows and Mac OS X.

There are also unofficial ports to GP2X, BeOS/ZETA/Haiku, MorphOS, Nintendo DS, and AmigaOS 4 to name a few.

And of course, should you succeed in running C-Dogs SDL on a different operating system, platform or toaster please contact us! :-)

C-Dogs SDL is also monitored by the continuous integration service travis, You can see the current build status here:

3. Installation

Please use the installers for your platform for installing.

Follow the getting started wiki to build on your platform. You will need the SDL development libraries installed.

4. Command line options

The C-Dogs binary is called "cdogs-sdl". Below are some command line arguments:

--fullscreen Try and use a fullscreen video mode.
--scale=n    Scale the window resolution up by a factor of n
               Factors: 2, 3, 4
--screen=WxH Set virtual screen width to W x H
               Modes: 320x200, 320x240, 400x300, 640x480, 800x600
--forcemode  Don't check video mode sanity

--nosound    Disable sound

--nojoystick     Disable joystick(s)

--wait           Wait for a key hit before initialising video.

These can be used in any order/combination:

$ cdogs-sdl --fullscreen --screen=400x300

Which will make the game try to run fullscreen at 400x300 resolution.
