# CLre
|
|
|
|
Always eat your celery, so you'll grow up to be big and strong like me.
|
|
Work-in-progress mod for [CardLife](http://cardlifegame.com/).
|
|
|
|
CardLife has stopped receiving updates, but that doesn't mean it's free from bugs.
|
|
CLre is a mod to rejuvenate CardLife by fixing old bugs and adding some modding sprinkles.
|
|
|
|
## Setup
|
|
|
|
This project requires most of Cardlife's `.dll` files to function correctly.
|
|
Most, but not all, of these files are stored in Cardlife's `Cardlife_Data\Managed` folder.
|
|
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 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.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
CLre_repo/ <- CLre git project files
|
|
CLre/ <- Code files
|
|
README.md <- This file
|
|
etc.
|
|
|
|
cl/ <- CardLife files
|
|
Cardlife_Data/
|
|
Managed/ <- Cardlife C# Assemblies
|
|
CardlifeGameServer_Data/
|
|
Managed/ <- Cardlife Standalone Server C# Assemblies (optional)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For any mod to work, you will have to patch your game with the Cardlife adaptation of [CLIPA](https://git.exmods.org/NGnius/CLIPA).
|
|
The installation process is roughly the same as for Gamecraft, except with a different name: [GCIPA Gamecraft install guide](https://git.exmods.org/modtainers/GCIPA/src/branch/master/README.md#how-to-install).
|
|
|
|
## Building
|
|
|
|
After you've completed the setup, open the solution file `CLre.sln` in your prefered C# .NET/Mono development environment.
|
|
I'd recommend Visual Studio Community Edition or JetBrains Rider.
|
|
|
|
If you've successfully completed setup, you should be able to build the CLre project without errors.
|
|
If it doesn't work and you can't figure out why, ask for help on the [Exmods Discord server](https://discord.exmods.org).
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
To install the CLre mod, copy the build's `CLre.dll` into the `Plugins` folder where Cardlife is installed.
