An open source reimplementation of the Rayman 2: The Great Escape engine using C++11 and modern OpenGL.
openrayman [options] ...
OpenRayman needs the base game rayman2 to run.
rayman2 can be created by starting OpenRayman without it or by using the command line option --convert-data "folder". The folder variable should point to a valid Rayman 2: The Great Escape installation.
rayman2 will be copied into the OpenRayman storage folder (in windows %appdata%\openrayman or linux ~/.local/share/openrayman). This is all that needs to be done to run OpenRayman.
Do note that OpenRayman contains some extensions to the Rayman 2: The Great Escape game, such as more menu options.
If for some reason you wish to run without these modifications then you will either need to edit the config.json file and change the game variable from rayman2_openrayman to rayman2, or by specifying the game to run via the command line option --game rayman2.
You should always target rayman2_openrayman when making a mod.
As previously mentioned, a valid installation of Rayman 2: The Great Escape (PC version) must be used for data extraction.
Rayman 2: The Great Escape can be bought on GOG (https://www.gog.com/game/rayman_2_the_great_escape) or installed from a valid CD.
Installing the game on Linux needs to be done via wine but should work without further tweaking.
(TODO: installing on Android)
The only tested version is the GOG version.
You need to build gl3w.h and gl3w.c before you build the project.
This can be done by executing lib/gl3w/gl3w_gen.py with Python 2.
CMake should be used to generate makefiles, and make should be used to build the engine.
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make -j8
The engine can be installed via sudo make install and can then be started by executing the command openrayman.
Additionally, a .desktop file will be created.
Building should be done with MinGW, and is almost the same as on Linux.
You need to use the command cmake -G "MinGW Makefiles" .. instead of cmake .. to create makefiles, as OpenRayman cannot be built with MSVC.
You might also need mingw32-make -j8 instead of make -j8.
Mac OS X is not supported at the moment (might work with CMake?).

libopenrayman is a library that contains several classes for decoding and decompiling file formats used by the Rayman 2: The Great Escape engine.
libopenrayman is at large based upon szymski's Rayman2Lib (https://github.com/szymski/Rayman2Lib).
All files related to libopenrayman are located in the libopenrayman/ subdirectory.

Palorifgrodbierzrt for creating Ray2Get, which the apm_audio_track implementation is partially based upon (I figured out the WAVEFORMATEX part though ;)).
