Cannot build the project due to GameNetworkingSockets issue

[Eager31]

1. Navigate to the repository using a command prompt.
2. Check out the correct branch/tag if you're not working against main
3. Run git submodule update --init to pull in vendored dependencies
4. Run xmake -y (add -v for verbose output)

-> When running step 4 :

I tried to pull GameNetworkingSocker and fix, then using it a local dependency but without success. It keeps trying to pull this dependency and there's this issue. Probably a C++ misconfiguration

It's been a long time since I build the project.
Also make sure you are using the right version of Microsoft SDK like mentioned in README.

You might want to try #23 (comment)...

I'v installed a fresh ubuntu server to try to build it, but without success, An issue in the same lib, but with different kind...

Will try to reinstall a fresh windows with the SDK indicated,
May I DM you on discord or smth ? I see you'r french 🇫‍🇷

[poirierlouis]

Well it should be working on Ubuntu Server too. I have one running and there is a configured Docker image which was tested.

May I DM you on discord or smth ?

You can, but ultimately the best would be to ask in the dedicated sub-channel to share with everyone (also increase your odds to find a solution).

[Eager31]

I reinstalled a fresh windows. all the libs required. even the Microsoft SDK stated. still the same error when building :
