  2. Please use a C++ compiler supporting C++ 14 at least.
  3. OpenSceneGraph is always required for building osgVerse. (https://github.com/openscenegraph/OpenSceneGraph) Current project mainly depends on OSG 3.7.0, but can compile on OSG 3.1.1 or later versions.
  4. Important dependencies:
  1. Optional dependencies:

Supported Hardware

Prepare and build third-party libraries

  1. By default, osgVerse will find third-party libraries as follows:
  • OpenGL: from the system. Note that some Linux distributions (e.g., Qilin) should enable VERSE_FIND_LEGACY_OPENGL first.
  • OpenSceneGraph: from environment variable $OSG_ROOT.
  • SDL, Draco, Bullet, etc.: from CMake variable ${VERSE_3RDPARTY_PATH}, which is <osgverse_folder>/../Dependencies by default.
    • Actually path to find includes and libraries will be automatically set to '${VERSE_3RDPARTY_PATH}/'.
    • For x86/x64 build: is 'x86/x64'.
    • For Android build: is 'android'.
    • For MacOSX/IOS build: is 'apple/ios'.
    • For WebAssembly (WASM) build: is 'wasm'.
