Raze is a fork of Build engine games backed by GZDoom tech and combines Duke Nukem 3D, Blood, Redneck Rampage, Shadow Warrior and Exhumed/Powerslave in a single package. It is also capable of playing Nam and WW2 GI.
The game modules are based on the following sources:
- Duke Nukem: JFDuke, EDuke 2.0, World Tour extensions from DukeGDX and some minor fixes from EDuke32.
- Redneck Rampage: Nuke.YKT's reconstructed source available in the Rednukem Git repo.
- Blood: NBlood.
- Shadow Warrior: SWP and VoidSW.
- Exhumed/Powerslave: PCExhumed, with some enhancements inspired by PowerslaveGDX.

To build Raze, please see the wiki and see the "Programmer's Corner" on the bottom-right corner of the page to build for your platform - use this repository instead of GZDoom's.
Use ZMusic 1.1.14, matching the CI builds. For builds using the vcpkg toolchain, these options bundle the MoltenVK runtime and link OpenAL Soft for audio:
cmake -S . -B build \
-DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=/path/to/vcpkg/scripts/buildsystems/vcpkg.cmake \
-DMOLTENVK_VCPKG=ON -DOPENAL_SOFT_VCPKG=ON -DDYN_OPENAL=OFF
cmake --build build --parallelThe local vcpkg overlay downloads the official MoltenVK 1.4.2 macOS binary,
verifies its checksum, and bundles it and its license in raze.app. It supports
Apple Silicon and Intel Macs running macOS 12 or newer. Vulkan must remain
enabled (HAVE_VULKAN=ON, the default). The MoltenVK option is off by default;
builds without it can still use an externally installed Vulkan runtime.
