StepMania is an advanced cross-platform rhythm game for home and arcade use.
Advanced cross-platform rhythm game for home and arcade use.
For those that do not wish to compile the game on their own and use a binary right away, be aware of the following issues:
- Windows users are expected to have installed the Microsoft Visual C++ x86 Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015 prior to running the game. For those on a 64-bit operating system, grab the x64 redistributable as well. DirectX End-User Runtimes (June 2010) is also required. Windows 7 is the minimum supported version.
- Mac OS X users need to have Mac OS X 10.6.8 or higher to run StepMania.
- Linux users should receive all they need from the package manager of their choice.
StepMania can be compiled using CMake. More information about using CMake can be found in both the Build directory and CMake's documentation.
This repository now uses submodules to attempt to keep the repository size down. Utilize git submodule init and git submodule update to get the necessary submodules.
