To download this repository, run:

git clone --recursive https://github.com/pmdcp/Server

This will download the core server files, as well as all dependancies.

You will need to install MySQL. The prefered version is 5.6, although the server will likely run with later versions.

Once installed, extract the files from the Content_Data.zip file. Run LoadTableBackup.bat. You will be prompted for your database username, database password, and database version. Input those fields and your database will be loaded with the default datasets.

You will now need to configure the database connections used by the server application. From the root server directory, navigate to *Data\Data* and open config.xml. Update the username and password used by the database.

Install Visual Studio. Once installed, launch Server.sln. In the Visual Studio interface, change Debug to Release. Build the server. Output files will be placed in Server\bin\Release.

That's it! Your server is setup and can now be run!
