The other day I went into a "Doom Panic." I wanted to create some doom megawads and realized that my copy of Obsidian was slightly out of date. So (like a dumbass) I deleted my only working copy of Obsidian and proceeded to download the source code for the new version. Cmake complained to me, saying that it was out of date for this source code.

I probably should have at least tried to get the new version of cmake. Instead, I went into panic mode and backed up everything, then installed the new version of Linux Mint v20.2! These instructions are for a fresh copy of v20.2 without any other dependencies installed (except those listed in the video).

DO NOT install cmake from the normal repository. You will get version 3.16 which is too old for the new Obsidian. Instead, follow these instructions to the letter. There is one extra part I added which is not in the original readme. When I didn't do this part, the make command would crash for Obsidian. Anyway, thank you for watching, and read down below for the scripting. Doom RPG with Roguelike Arsenal in my next video!
