This repository contains only core game code and all game texts. You can easily modify other game files using the Deus Ex SDK.

WARNING: You won't be able to play original Deus Ex after installing this package, so use a separate copy of the game.

How to setup this package:

• Install the Deus Ex 1.112fm (it will be your %DeusEx% directory).
• Install the Deus Ex SDK.
• Install the latest version of 2027.
• Change the WORK_PATH constant in %REPOSITORY%/build.properties file (just one it with the Notepad) to point to your Deus Ex folder and SOURCE_PATH path to your %REPOSITORY% folder (the same folder this file is located in).
• Delete %DeusEx%/System/DeusEx.u and %DeusEx%/System/DeusExUI.u
• Copy %REPOSITORY%/DeusEx.ini to your %DeusEx%/System folder (overwrite the existing file).

How to modify and compile game texts:

• Modify texts from %REPOSITORY%/src or %REPOSITORY%/locale folders.
• Use Apache Ant to run build.xml and launch the "UpdateTexts" task.
• The compiler might show some errors, but it's OK.
• Your compiled files will be placed into %DeusEx%/2027/System folder. Please note that all locale files will be placed to the %DeusEx%/System folder (you can find them by .eng and .rus extensions).

WARNING: All files from the %REPOSITORY%/locale folder must be in UTF-8 encoding. All files from the GameTextsEng and GameTextsRus packages must be in Windows-1251 encoding. Editing these files from the Google code web interface will convert them to UTF-8 automatically.

How to modify and compile game scripts:

• Modify scripts from %REPOSITORY%/src folder.
• Use Apache Ant to run build.xml and launch the "UpdatePackage" task.
• Select a package to compile.
• The compiler might show some errors, but it's OK.
• Your compiled files will be placed into %DeusEx%/2027/System folder.

How to get and to use the Apache Ant:

• Install JDK.
• Install Apache Ant.
• Open the command-line pompt (press Win+R and type cmd).
• Type ant -buildfile D:\2027SourceDirectory\build.xml UpdateTexts (where D:\2027SourceDirectory is your 2027' sources directory and UpdateTexts or UpdatePackage is a name of the task you want to execute).

How to modify and compile game launcher:

• Modify Visual Studio project from %REPOSITORY%/launcher folder.
• In project options set your %DeusEx% folder as an output directory.
• Use Resources.ru-RU.resx to build a Russian version of the launcher.
