*Tomb Engine* (*TEN*) is an open-source custom level engine which aims to abolish limits and fix bugs of the classic Tomb Raider games. It aims to introduce new features, refine old ones, and provide a user-friendly level creation process. Current support includes:
- *Lua* as the native scripting language.
- Many objects from the original series (1-5).
- Support for high framerate, antialiasing, mipmapping, and SSAO.
- Full skinning support for all objects.
- Full diagonal geometry support.
- Uncapped map size.
- A streamlined player control scheme.

*Tomb Engine* is used in conjunction with *Tomb Editor*. The repository can be found [here](https://github.com/TombEngine/Tomb-Editor).

# Compiling *Tomb Engine*
To compile *TEN*, ensure you have installed:
- *Microsoft Visual Studio*
- *Tomb Editor* (for level creation and testing)

Steps:
1) Clone the repository to your GitHub Desktop.
2) Open `TombEngine.sln`.
4) Compile the solution.
5) Once compiled, create a separate folder to serve as your main *TEN* directory (or create a test *TEN* project using *TombIDE*)
6) Copy everything inside the `Build` folder to the main *TEN* directory.
7) Ensure you have the necessary level data and texture files.
8) In case Windows warns about missing DLLs (bass.dll, etc.), copy the missing DLL files found inside the `Libs` folder to your main `TEN` directory.

*Visual Studio* may warn about NuGet packages. To fix:
1) Delete the `Packages` folder.
2) Go back to *Microsoft Visual Studio*.
3) Right-click on the *TEN* solution in the *Solution Explorer* tab and select "Restore NuGet Packages".
4) If it doesn't help, manually install  `directxtk_desktop_2019` and `Microsoft.XAudio2.Redist` packages via NuGet Package Manager.

Once done, you should be able to build a level with *Tomb Editor* and run it in *TEN*.
