Tested on Poudriere with 10.4-RELEASE and on CURRENT (also played some time on CURRENT).

To run it, you need to rename all the game files to lower-case. You also need to run avp from the game directory (the directory from which you can see avp_huds and avp_rifs subdirs).
Comment 1 Nathan 2018-08-26 22:35:03 UTC 
Instead of having the end-user rename all the files to lower-case, it should be done inside the Makefile, so it'd be ready for everyone to play outright
Comment 2 Kubilay Kocak freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2018-08-27 07:30:42 UTC 
Ports should provide software as close to 'ready to use' at post installation as possible, if at least with/in a default configuration.
Comment 3 Piotr Kubaj freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2018-08-27 18:41:05 UTC 
It can't be done in the Makefile. The assets are proprietary and you need to have the original game. This port doesn't include those and is similar to e.g. OpenMW or OpenRCT2.
