Hey there! This is a tutorial on how to build DolRecomp. Since this is a pure C project using CMake, the build process is pretty straightforward.

You will need:

  1. A C Compiler: (e.g., GCC, Clang, or MSVC)
  2. CMake: (Version 3.16 or higher)

The latest downloads for CMake are available here. For legacy versions, here.

Warning

Versions of CMake that are below 3.16 will not work with this project.

Now that you have CMake installed, let's go right into the steps for building this project!

1. Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/ExpansionPak/DolRecomp.git
cd DolRecomp

2. Building

There are two ways to do this.

Method 1. Using VSCode

  1. Open the project folder in VSCode.
  2. Ensure you have the CMake Tools extension installed.
  3. Build the project by pressing Ctrl + Shift + P, and select CMake: Build. Select a build kit if prompted to.
