csgoverview - 2D Demoviewer

A 2D demo replay tool for Counter Strike: Global Offensive.

Package match povides a high-level parser you can use for your own demoviewer.

Current version is 0.5.1. Master branch is currently used for development.

Check out the Roadmap where I keep track of ideas and todos.

Tools

• golang
• SDL2
• go-sdl2
• demoinfocs-golang
• csgo-overviews

Hardware Requirements

• Display with a resolution of 1920x1080 or higher
• about 1.5 GB of memory for a 32 tick demo
• about 5 GB of memory for a 128 tick demo

Installation

Windows

I did not sign the application - Windows will prevent the app from running.

1. Download the latest compiled version (.zip) from the releases page.
2. Create a folder and extract the .zip file into it.
3. Download the overview images from this repository and put them into the same folder.
4. Put the demo you want to watch into the same folder.
5. Right click the demo; Open with; Choose another app; check 'Always use this app to open .dem files'; More apps; Look for another app on this PC; select csgoverview.exe (weirdly, this does not open the demo yet).
6. Double click any demo in the folder to open it with csgoverview.
7. alternatively, you can launch the app from the command-line.

Dependencies

Fedora

dnf install git golang SDL2{,_gfx,_image,_ttf}-devel dejavu-sans-fonts

Ubuntu

sudo apt install git golang libsdl2{,-gfx,-image,-ttf}-dev fonts-dejavu

Build

This project uses go modules. Make sure you have go version 1.12 or higher installed. Run go version to check.

git clone https://github.com/Linus4/csgoverview.git
cd csgoverview
go build

Cross-compiling for Windows

Using a Fedora 30 machine:

Dependencies

sudo dnf install make git golang SDL2{,_gfx,_image,_ttf,_mixer} mingw64-SDL2{,_image,_ttf}

Installing SDL2_gfx library

wget http://www.ferzkopp.net/Software/SDL2_gfx/SDL2_gfx-1.0.4.tar.gz
tar xf SDL2_gfx-1.0.4.tar.gz
cd SDL2_gfx-1.0.4
mingw64-configure
mingw64-make
sudo mingw64-make install
cd ..

Cloning the repository

git clone https://github.com/Linus4/csgoverview.git
cd csgoverview

Switch to new go-sdl2 version

Edit line in go.mod:

-       github.com/veandco/go-sdl2 v0.3.3
+       github.com/veandco/go-sdl2 v0.4.0-rc.0

Build

CGO_ENABLED=1 CC=x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc GOOS=windows GOARCH=amd64 go build -tags static -ldflags "-s -w"

Required files

Put the font file (.ttf) from the repository, the required map overviews (next section) and the executable (.exe) into a directory. You can launch the application from the command-line or by double-clicking on a demo in the same directory after you have set csgoverview.exe to be your default app to use for .dem files.

Get overviews

Use this repository (overviews directory), create a directory with mkdir $HOME/.local/share/csgoverview and copy the overviews that you need to $HOME/.local/share/csgoverview.

You can use other overviews as long as they are .jpg files and they match the naming pattern (e.g. de_nuke.jpg). Ideally, their size should be 1024x1024 pixels or larger.

More overviews are available here:

• alternative generated from game files
• Simple Radar

On Linux, you can convert images with convert image.png image.jpg if you have ImageMagick installed.

Executable

You can move or symlink the executable into a directory in your $PATH to make the program available everywhere on your system.

Example:

sudo ln -s /usr/bin/csgoverview <path to cloned repository>/csgoverview

Desktop file (Linux)

In order to add csgoverview to your applications menu, create a .desktop file (use the path to the executable on your computer in Exec):

echo "[Desktop Entry]
Name=CSGOverview
Exec=/usr/bin/csgoverview %F
Type=Application
Terminal=false
Categories=Games;" > $HOME/.local/share/applications/csgoverview.desktop

Usage

./csgoverview
    -fontpath string
    	Path to font file (.ttf) (default "/usr/share/fonts/dejavu/DejaVuSans.ttf")
    -framerate float
    	Fallback GOTV Framerate (default -1)
    -tickrate float
    	Fallback Gameserver Tickrate (default -1)

  [path to demo]

If you're using GTK, you can also double-click the executable and select a demo with the GUI.

After you've created the .desktop file, you can right click on a demo and select csgoverview when you select 'Open With'. This way, you can just double-click on a demo to watch it with csgoverview.

Looking for font file in the following directories: the one you supply with the -fontpath flag, /usr/share/fonts/dejavu/DejaVuSans.ttf, ./DejaVuSans.ttf.

Looking for overview file in the following directories: $HOME/.local/share/csgoverview and in the current directory.
