What is fallout-terminal-clone?
fallout-terminal-clone is a modest recreation of the terminal hacking system
in Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas developed with curses. It runs directly
in your terminal or command prompt. I mostly did this as a fun and
interesting way to explore C.
Instructions
Use WASD to move, and ENTER to choose your selected letter. Ctrl-C to quit.
Building
WINDOWS
Requirements:
MinGW installed with the following packages:
- mingw32-gcc
- mingw32-pdcurses (dev and dll)
Once the above dependencies are satisfied, simply open
a command prompt in the source directory and run:
make
If you get an error about gcc not being found, you most
likely didn't add MinGW tools to your path. Either do
that, or change the line:
CC = gcc
to read:
CC = C:\MinGW\bin
(assuming you installed MinGW in that location)
LINUX
Requirements:
- gcc
- ncurses
Once the above dependencies are satisfied, simply open
a terminal in the source directory and run:
make
OSX
Requirements:
Xcode Tools (just run xcode-select --install)
Once this is finished, simply open
a terminal in the source directory and run:
make
TODO list:
Custom movement keys
Screen centering
Possible mouse support?
Bugs:
Fallout 3 doesn't seem to play nice with the launching. But I haven't
tested this much. You may just be better off putting this program in a
batch file.
Thanks to:
/u/aftli_work for suggesting macros (before I knew what they were)
