https://openxcom.org/forum/index.php/topic,6586.msg158984.html#msg158984I have set up a test to build
OXCE AppImage whenever a new OXCE is released. This should theoretically make it very easy to run OXCE on any linux distro (and WSL?), although I've only tested it on Ubuntu 20.04 & Fedora 38 myself.
The source can be found here:
https://github.com/pedroterzero/oxce-docker/tree/deb7d72c4b24b0743443501a7e39e9911830f17eReleases can be found here:
https://github.com/pedroterzero/oxce-docker/releasesFor me these steps sufficed to run OXCE from this AppImage (for v7.9.8 ):
mkdir oxce && cd oxce
# move your TFTD/UFO assets in here, see https://www.ufopaedia.org/index.php/Installing_(OpenXcom)#All_platforms
wget https://github.com/pedroterzero/oxce-docker/releases/download/v7.9.8/OpenXCOM_Extended-v7.9.8-x86_64.AppImage
chmod +x OpenXCOM_Extended-v7.9.8-x86_64.AppImage
./OpenXCOM_Extended-v7.9.8-x86_64.AppImage
It has all the required libraries bundled, you can check what is included with the following command:
./OpenXCOM_Extended-v7.9.8-x86_64.AppImage --appimage-extract
