+## Compatibility matrix
+
+|System |Build |Bundle |Run |Build requirements |
+|---------|---------|----------|---------|----------------------------------------------|
+|Linux |**Yes** |**Yes** |**Yes** |_GCC or Clang_ |
+|FreeBSD |**Yes** |_not yet_ |**Yes** |_GCC or Clang_ |

+|Wine |- |- |**Yes** |- |
+|macOS |**Yes** |**Yes** |**Yes** |_Homebrew, GCC or Clang and builtin GtkGLExt_ |
+
+NetRadiant is known to build and run properly on Linux, FreeBSD and Windows using MSYS2, and build on macOS with Homebrew (some bugs are known though). Windows build is known to work well on wine, which can be used as a fallback on some system.
+
+At this time library bundling is only supported on Linux, Windows/MSYS2, and macOS/Homebrew. Since bundling copies things from the host, a clean build environment has to be used in order to get a clean bundle. Linux bundle does not ship GTK (users are expected to have a working GTK environment with GtkGlExt installed).

-* ZLib
+* OpenGL, LibXml2, GTK2, GtkGLExt, LibJpeg, LibPng, LibWebp, Minizip, ZLib.
-## msys2
+To fetch default game packages you'll need Git, Subversion, Wget and `unzip`.
-Under MSYS2, the mingw shell must be used
-### 32 bit:
+### Ubuntu:
-```
-pacman -S --needed base-devel mingw-w64-i686-{toolchain,cmake,make,gtk2,gtkglexti,libwebp}
+```sh
+apt-get install --reinstall build-essential cmake \
+ lib{x11,gtk2.0,gtkglext1,xml2,jpeg,webp,minizip}-dev \
+ git subversion unzip wget
```
-### 64 bit:
+If you plan to build a bundle, you also need to install `uuid-runtime patchelf`
-```
-pacman -S --needed base-devel mingw-w64-x86_64-{toolchain,cmake,make,gtk2,gtkglext,libwebp}
+This is enough to build NetRadiant but you may also install those extra packages to get proper GTK2 graphical and sound themes: `gnome-themes-extra gtk2-engines-murrine libcanberra-gtk-module`
+
+
+### MSYS2:
+
+Under MSYS2, the mingw shell must be used.
+
+If you use MSYS2 over SSH, add `mingw64` to the path this way (given you compile for 64 bit Windows, replace with `mingw32` if you target 32 bit Windows instead):
+
+```sh
+export PATH="/mingw64/bin:${PATH}"
```
-## macOS:
+Install the dependencies this way:
+```sh
+pacman -S --needed base-devel git \
+ mingw-w64-$(uname -m)-{ntldd-git,subversion,unzip,toolchain,cmake,make,gtk2,gtkglext,libwebp,minizip-git}
```
-brew install gcc cmake Caskroom/cask/xquartz gtkglext pkgconfig minizip webp coreutils gnu-sed
+
+Explicitely use `mingw-w64-x86_64-` or `mingw-w64-i686-` prefix instead of `mingw-w64-$(uname -m)` if you need to target a non-default architecture.
+
+
+### macOS:
+
+```sh
+brew install cmake glib gtk+ pkgconfig minizip webp coreutils gnu-sed wget
brew link --force gettext
```
-# Submodules
- * Crunch (optional, disabled by default, only supported with CMake build)
+## Submodules
-If you have not used `--recursive` option at `git clone` time, you can fetch Crunch this way (run it within the NetRadiant repository):
+ * Crunch (optional, not built if submodule is not present)
+If you have not used `--recursive` option at `git clone` time, you can fetch Crunch this way (run this within the `netradiant` repository):
-```
+```sh
git submodule update --init --recursive
```
-# Compiling
-This project uses the usual CMake workflow:
+## Simple compilation
+
+It is required to first download the sources using `git` (do not use tarballs) and to have dependencies installed, see [Getting the sources](#getting-the-sources) and [Dependencies](#dependencies) above.
+
+
+### Easy builder assistant
+
+If you have standard needs and use well-known platform and operating system, you may try the provided `easy-builder` script which may be enough for you, you can run it this way:
-## Debug
+```sh
+./easy-builder
+```
+
+If everything went right, you'll find your netradiant build in `install/` subdirectory.
+If you need to build a debug build (to get help from a developer, for example), you can do it this way:
+
+```sh
+./easy-builder --debug
```
-cmake -G "Unix Makefiles" -H. -Bbuild && cmake --build build -- -j$(nproc)
+
+By default, build tools and compilers are using the `build/` directory as workspace.
+
+For supported system, bundling dependencies can be done this way:
+
+```sh
+./easy-builder -DBUNDLE_LIBRARIES=ON
```
-## Release
+Note: always do bundling on clean system without unrelated software installed.
+
+
+## Advanced compilation
+### Initial build
+
+This project uses the usual CMake workflow:
+
+
+#### Debug build
+
+```sh
+cmake -G "Unix Makefiles" -S. -Bbuild -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug
+cmake --build build -- -j$(nproc)
```
-cmake -G "Unix Makefiles" -H. -Bbuild -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release && cmake --build build -- -j$(nproc)
+
+
+#### Release build
+
+```sh
+cmake -G "Unix Makefiles" -S. -Bbuild -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
+cmake --build build -- -j$(nproc)
```
-On Mac you have to add this to the first cmake call:
+Note: macOS users need to build built-in GtkGLExt before building NetRadiant:
+```sh
+cmake -G "Unix Makefiles" -S. -Bbuild -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
+cmake --build build -- -j$(nproc) builtins
+cmake -G "Unix Makefiles" -S. -Bbuild
+cmake --build build -- -j$(nproc)
```
--DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=/usr/local/bin/gcc-9 -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=/usr/local/bin/g++-9 -DOPENGL_INCLUDE_DIR=/opt/X11/include -DOPENGL_gl_LIBRARY=/opt/X11/lib/libGL.dylib
+
+
+### Subsequent builds
+
+The initial build will download the gamepacks and build NetRadiant and tools. If you frequently recompile you can skip downloading the gamepacks:
+
+```sh
+cmake --build build --target binaries -- -j$(nproc)
+```
+
+You should still periodically update gamepacks:
+
+```sh
+cmake --build build --target gamepacks
```

+## Additonnal information
-## Note about Crunch
+### About Crunch
The crnlib used to decode `.crn` files is the one from [Dæmon](http://github.com/DaemonEngine/Daemon) which is the one by [Unity](https://github.com/Unity-Technologies/crunch/tree/unity) made cross-platform and slightly improved. Since Unity brokes compatibility with [BinomialLLC's legacy tree](https://github.com/BinomialLLC/crunch) it's required to use either the `crunch` tool from Dæmon or the one from Unity to compress textures that have to be read by radiant or q3map2.
