Labels: - every button, field, tooltip and message of the editor reread for a beginner: short nouns for the fields with the sentence in the tooltip, the less used options under More settings, one glossary (field of work, template, track, grade), sides told from directions, degrees and per mille as signs, messages built from one format string - plural forms through STR_P; the last entry of a po file is read too, and the Polish plural rule is in the header - lang/editor_pl.po: the code pass entries merged, 391 entries no code uses and 3 duplicates dropped - roads: the notes and errors naming a road translated; the build options and the layout fold the texture length, kerb sizes, traffic share, roundabout part, height over the ground and junction speed limit under More settings, the lanes start folded Grade lines fitted to the terrain model (NMT), a line or the whole scenery at once: - fit_ground: a robust fit on nodes 5 m apart; the ground parting from the line (a bridge, a viaduct, a wall) is gone past rather than followed, the bends keep off the switches as far as their curves reach, a run of bends the same way is one point of intersection, a curve with no room is as sharp as the room lets it be - the ends of the line and the other paths of its switches leading into lines fitted already bound the line by what the tracks between can climb; ends meeting in the plan, laid apart in height by hand, are joined before the run - apply_profile: the paths are split where split_path takes the parameter (a straight was cut in the wrong place, into pieces of a few centimetres the game takes for zero length), no piece shorter than the margin; the paths off the ends of the route are brought to its height - Bytom: 1600 lines, grade breaks at the joints 89 -> 20; Tarnowskie Gory: 848 lines, 223 -> 3; no step over 2 cm

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.
