Three things that turn out to be one thing: a session with people in it needs
to be able to say who they are, and a machine that only referees one should not
have to open a window to do it.
Names. A peer id is what the protocol addresses; "player 4" is no use to anybody
reading a lobby. CLIENT_HELLO carries a requested nickname now, and the server
decides what it actually is: trimmed of control characters and runs of spaces,
capped at 24, and made unique - two people called Marcin are two people and the
lobby has to say which is which. The result goes out as PEER_ROSTER whenever
somebody joins or leaves, and to a joining peer just before its snapshot, so the
crew section resolves to names rather than numbers. The name comes from
multiplayer.nickname in the ini or --nick on the command line, falling back to
the account name and, failing that, to the old numbering. The host is a peer
like any other here too, and registers its own name at startup.
Chat, on the key left of 1. Going up a line carries only its text: who said it
is decided by the connection it arrived on, never by the field in the packet,
which is what stops anybody putting words in anybody's mouth. The server tidies
and caps it, says it, and passes it on - a client waits to hear itself back, so
that everybody sees the conversation in the same order. While the box has the
keyboard imgui swallows the input before the driver mode sees it, so typing "d"
types "d" instead of opening the doors of whatever you are driving; that also
means the key that opened the panel cannot close it, hence escape.
And --nogui. No glfw, no window, no imgui, the null renderer, sound off, log to
the console it was started from, and nobody in a cab - the scenario is left to
its own drivers and this process is a referee rather than a participant. Every
window-dependent path is guarded on an empty window list rather than on a flag
scattered through the code, and the loop is paced at fifty steps a second
because nothing is waiting on a swapchain to slow it down. Chat lines go to the
log, which is what a machine with no window has instead of a chat panel.

Website · Report an issue · Community Discord · MaSzyna on Steam · MaSzyna on Epic Games Store
MaSzyna executable source code is licensed under the MPL 2.0 and comes with a large pack of free assets under a custom license.
Table of Contents
Getting Started
MaSzyna compiles and runs natively on Linux and Windows. Other platforms are not tested.
Heads-up
Our dev team is small; we keep improving the build process, but issues may still occur. If you get stuck, please ask on the official Discord server.
Prerequisites
For runtime requirements see Minimum Requirements.
1) Software (oldest tested in parentheses)
Note: MinGW is currently not supported.
2) Libraries (oldest tested in parentheses)
-
GLFW 3.x (3.2.1)
If a link error occurs, pass-DGLFW3_LIBRARIES="<path>"to CMake. -
GLM (0.9.9.0)
-
libserialport (0.1.1)
-
libsndfile (1.0.28)
-
LuaJIT (2.0.5)
-
GLEW (2.1.0)
-
libpng (1.6.34)
-
OpenAL (1.18.2)
-
pthread
-
Python 3.14 (64-bit; headers and import library required for embedding)
-
Asio (1.12)
3) Graphics API
- OpenGL 3.0 or newer
- DirectX 12 via NVRHI (optional, Windows only, for Better Renderer)
CMake flags
| Flag | Meaning |
|---|---|
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug |
Debug build |
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release |
Release build |
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo |
Release build with debug symbols |
-DWITH_BETTER_RENDERER=ON/OFF |
Enable/disable NVRHI-based renderer |
-DPython3_ROOT_DIR=<path> |
Root of the Python 3.14 install on Windows (python.exe, Lib, DLLs) for embed/copy steps; on Linux, optional if CMake picks the wrong interpreter |
Linux note:
WITH_BETTER_RENDERERuses DirectX 12 through NVRHI and is not supported on Linux.
Windows
Install Python 3.14 x64 from python.org and include the optional Python native development feature (headers and .lib for embedding). Pass -DPython3_ROOT_DIR="C:\Path\To\Python314" on the cmake line when you want the layout under that directory used for embedding and for copying Lib / DLLs next to the executable.
AppVeyor CI builds with the worker image’s preinstalled Python at C:/Python314-x64 (see appveyor.yml: -DPython3_ROOT_DIR=...).

Installing
There is no make install yet. Copy the built executable to your MaSzyna installation manually.
-
Output directory:
./bin -
File name format:
eu07_YYYY-MM-DD_<commit>[_d]-
YYYY-MM-DD– build date -
<commit>– short commit hash -
_d– present in Debug builds
-
If you already have the MaSzyna assets, copy the executable to the install dir. Assets can be downloaded from eu07.pl.
Rainsted on Linux
If Rainsted (a third‑party starter) fails to detect the executable under Linux, you can create a small wrapper script named eu07.exe:
#!/bin/sh
./eu07 "$1" "$2" "$3" "$4" "$5"
If detection still fails, padding the file (with comments) up to ~1 MB may help.
Known Issues
-
GLFW linking – On some systems you must provide the GLFW library path explicitly with
-DGLFW3_LIBRARIES. -
X11/Wayland linking order – Linking order of X11 and related libs can matter.
-
NVRHI on Linux – The NVRHI/"Better Renderer" path targets DirectX 12 and is currently unsupported on Linux.
