#### Data files

This repository does not contain any copyrighted files. 

For better user experience, pre-built binaries are distributed with slightly modified freeware game files.

*doukutsu-rs* should work fine with pre-extracted and tweaked data files from [this repository](https://github.com/doukutsu-rs/game-data), [NXEngine(-evo)](https://github.com/nxengine/nxengine-evo) extracted freeware data files and [Cave Story+](https://www.nicalis.com/games/cavestory+) data files.

Vanilla Cave Story does not work yet because some important data files have been embedded inside the executable. and we don't have a loader/extractor implemented yet.

##### Where to get them?

**Freeware**

- https://github.com/doukutsu-rs/game-data - Freeware game data distributed with CI builds, based on those two below.
- ~~https://github.com/Clownacy/CSE2/archive/enhanced.zip - copy `game_english/data` from archive to the runtime directory (place you run the executable from, usually project root)~~
- https://github.com/nxengine/nxengine-evo/releases/download/v2.6.4/NXEngine-v2.6.4-Win32.zip - copy `NXEngine-evo-2.6.4-xxx/data` from the archive to runtime directory

**Cave Story+**

- PC release (Steam) - (Tested only with Steam version, both Windows and Linux builds) Copy `data` folder from installation directory ([guide for Steam](https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=760447682)) to the runtime directory.
- PC release (EGS) - (Untested, but the game is essentially the same as Steam release) Same thing as with Steam version.
- Switch release - (Tested once, no guarantee to work) You need a hacked Switch and physical release. Google should help you.
