[EN] How to install and play

Please, carefully read the text about build naming system:

Build naming system

Engine archives are packed using special system used to determine purpose and the architecture of the build

There are six configurations: Dx86, Dx64, Mx86, Mx64, Rx86, Rx64;

They are named using YxZZ template, where

• Y – letter that denotes the configuration;
• ZZ – two numbers denoting architectute.

There are three configurations:

• D – Debug; Special debugging build intended for engine developers only.
• M – Mixed; Game debugging build intended for modmakers. (includes advanced capabilities for debugging the game process)
• R – Release; Game release build intended for players. (most likely, this is what you need)

And two architectures:

• x86 – 32-bit build
• x64 – 64-bit build

Standard game archives are named as OpenXRay.YxZZ.7z (Most likely, this is what you need)

Archives with debug symbols are named as Symbols.YxZZ.7z (needed only for developers)

Download

Stable releases and release candidates are contained on Releases page.

You can get the lastest build from the latest commit on AppVeyor. (use them only if necessary)

Installation
