An example of a RED4ext plugin using Premake.

1. Download and install Visual Studio 2022 Community Edition or a higher version.
2. Clone this repository.
3. Clone the dependencies (git submodule update --init --recursive).
4. Extract the content of Premake 5 in the project directory.
5. Run generate_project.bat.
6. Open the solution (RED4ext.Example.Premake.sln) located in project directory.
7. Build the project (the artifacts are located in build/{debug|release} directory).

Notes:

• The plugin has to be a 64-bit library. That means all required libraries have to be compiled in 64-bit and the compiler has to support 64-bit.
• Make sure you have the latest SDK by updating it using the following commands:
  • cd deps/red4ext.sdk
  • git pull / git fetch
  • git checkout master
• You can also generate the projects from command line, see the build.yml in .github/workflows/build.yml.
