+ + + +###### chatgpt generated instructions below + +## Requirements + +Before building the project, ensure you have the following installed on your system: + +- **Git**: To clone the repository and its vendored submodules. +- **Visual Studio 2022**: You must install the following workloads: + - *Desktop development with C++* + - *.NET desktop development* (for the C# dumper project) +- **.NET 8.0 SDK**: Required for the dumper tools. Usually included with the Visual Studio .NET desktop development workload. +- **CMake** `4.1.0` or newer: To generate the build files for the C++ unlocker proxy. +- **OpenSSL**: Download and install the full (non-Light) 64-bit version from [Win32 OpenSSL](https://slproweb.com/products/Win32OpenSSL.html). + - *Important*: You must install the **full version**, not the "Light" version, as the project requires the developer headers and libraries to compile (`find_package(OpenSSL REQUIRED)`). + +## Building Instructions + +The project uses several Git submodules (such as `nerutils`, `simdjson`, and `CUE4Parse`), so you must clone it recursively to pull all dependencies. + +### Step 1: Clone the repository + +Open your terminal or command prompt (such as PowerShell or Git Bash) and run: + +```ps1 +git clone --recursive https://git.neru.rip/neru/UnlockedByDaylight.git +cd UnlockedByDaylight +``` + +*(Note: If you have already cloned the repository without the `--recursive` flag, you can fetch the submodules by running `git submodule update --init --recursive` inside the project folder).* + +### Step 2: Generate project files using CMake + +Generate the Visual Studio solution and project files in a `build` directory: + +```ps1 +cmake -B build +``` + +*(Note: Depending on how OpenSSL was installed, CMake usually detects it automatically. If it doesn't, ensure your OpenSSL installation is added to your system `PATH` or manually provide the path via CMake arguments).* + +### Step 3: Compile the project + +You can build the project directly from the command line using CMake, or open the generated solution file in Visual Studio. + +**Option A: Command Line (Recommended)** +```ps1 +cmake --build build --config Release +``` + +**Option B: Visual Studio 2022** +1. Navigate to the `build` folder. +2. Open the newly generated `.sln` file (e.g., `dbd-unlocker.sln`). +3. Set your build configuration to `Release` and architecture to `x64` in the top toolbar. +4. Right-click the `dbd-unlocker` target in the Solution Explorer and select **Set as Startup Project**. +5. Build the entire solution (Press `Ctrl + Shift + B`). + +### Additional Notes + +- **Resources**: When building the unlocker (`dbd-unlocker`), the JSON files inside the `res/` directory will be automatically copied into the target output directory as configured by the CMake post-build step. +- Ensure you run the applications from folders where they have access to their respective resources.
