You can make sure CLre can find all of `.dll` files it needs by copying your Cardlife folder beside this repo's parent folder and renaming it to `cl`, but you'll have to re-copy it after every Cardlife update.
You can also create a symbolic link (look it up) to your Cardlife install folder named `cl` in the same spot to avoid having to re-copy files.
For any mod to work, you will have to patch your game with the Cardlife adaptation of [GCIPA](https://git.exmods.org/modtainers/GCIPA/src/branch/cardlife).
The installation process is roughly the same as for Gamecraft: [GCIPA Gamecraft install guide](https://git.exmods.org/modtainers/GCIPA/src/branch/master/README.md#how-to-install).
