Synergy (now Barrier) input was lost when we removed the CryLegacy Gem. This resurrects the code, updates it to work with Barrier (which is the open source project based on the original Synergy core), and updates it to be more conformant with the AzFramework Input framework. Notes: - The majority of code in BarrierInputClient.cpp is still largely unmodified from the original Cry drop and could use some love to make it more robust, but it works so at least gives us somewhere to start. - The current iteration replaces the host platform's default mouse/keyboard implementation upon creation of the BarrierInputClient, and if the connection fails or is later lost we don't restore the default implementations which we should for a better use experience. On a related note, for some use cases it would be better to create additional mouse/keyboard input devices (that use the Barrier implementations) in addition to the existing devices (that use the host platform's default implementation), however this would mean that any system assuming only one mouse/keyboard device exists would not work with the additional Barrier input devices. We can iterate on both of the above issues in the future as needed, perhaps providing configurable options to control the behaviour. Signed-off-by: bosnichd <bosnichd@amazon.com>
Open 3D Engine

Building the Engine
Build Requirements and redistributables
Windows
- Visual Studio 2019 16.9.2 minimum (All versions supported, including Community): https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/
- Install the following workloads:
- Game Development with C++
- MSVC v142 - VS 2019 C++ x64/x86
- C++ 2019 redistributable update
- Install the following workloads:
- CMake 3.20 minimum: https://cmake.org/download/
Optional
- Wwise - 2021.1.1.7601 minimum: https://www.audiokinetic.com/download/
- Note: This requires registration and installation of a client application to download
- Make sure to select the SDK(C++) component during installation of Wwise
- You will also need to set an environment variable:
set LY_WWISE_INSTALL_PATH=<path to Wwise version> - For example:
set LY_WWISE_INSTALL_PATH="C:\Program Files (x86)\Audiokinetic\Wwise 2021.1.1.7601"
Quick Start Build Steps
-
Create a writable folder to cache 3rd Party dependencies. You can also use this to store other redistributable SDKs.
-
Install the following redistributables to the following:
- Visual Studio and VC++ redistributable can be installed to any location
- CMake can be installed to any location, as long as it's available in the system path
- (Optional) Wwise can be installed anywhere, but you will need to set an environment variable for CMake to detect it:
set LY_WWISE_INSTALL_PATH=<path to Wwise>
-
Configure the source into a solution using this command line, replacing and <3rdParty cache path> to a path you've created:
cmake -B <your build path> -S <your source path> -G "Visual Studio 16" -DLY_3RDPARTY_PATH=<3rdParty cache path> -DLY_UNITY_BUILD=ON -DLY_PROJECTS=AutomatedTestingNote: Do not use trailing slashes for the <3rdParty cache path>
-
Alternatively, you can do this through the CMake GUI:
- Start
cmake-gui.exe - Select the local path of the repo under "Where is the source code"
- Select a path where to build binaries under "Where to build the binaries"
- Click "Configure"
- Wait for the key values to populate. Fill in the fields that are relevant, including
LY_3RDPARTY_PATHandLY_PROJECTS - Click "Generate"
- Start
-
The configuration of the solution is complete. To build the Editor and AssetProcessor to binaries, run this command inside your repo:
cmake --build <your build path> --target AutomatedTesting.GameLauncher AssetProcessor Editor --config profile -- /m -
This will compile after some time and binaries will be available in the build path you've specified
Setting up new projects
- While still within the repo folder, register the engine with this command:
scripts\o3de.bat register --this-engine - Setup new projects using the
o3de create-projectcommand.<Repo path>\scripts\o3de.bat create-project --project-path <your new project path> - Register the engine to the project
<Repo path>\scripts\o3de.bat register --project-path <New project path> - Once you're ready to build the project, run the same set of commands to configure and build:
cmake -B <your project build path> -S <your new project source path> -G "Visual Studio 16" -DLY_3RDPARTY_PATH=<3rdParty cache path> cmake --build <your project build path> --target <New Project Name>.GameLauncher --config profile -- /m
