The project is pre-configured to look in a folder called cl in the solution's main directory or one level up from that.
You can make sure CLre can find all of `.dll` files it needs by copying your Cardlife folder beside this repo's folder and renaming it to `cl`, but that's a bit of a waste of disk space.
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 example, if you cloned the repo into a folder called `CLre_repo`, this is what your folder structure would look like.

If you decide to change the `cl` folder configuration, do not commit your `CLre.csproj` file otherwise your changes will be rejected.
