Cloning DOS2 mods is not very intuitive due to the file structure, making symbolic links necessary if you want to have multiple repositories. The steps for a clean clone are:
- Clone Epip into a directory of choice outside of the game folder
- Setup symlinks so that
DefEd/Data/Public/EpipEncounters_7d32cb52-1cfd-4526-9b84-db4867bf9356
points to thePublic/EpipEncounters_7d32cb52-1cfd-4526-9b84-db4867bf9356
folder in the repository; likewise for theMods
andProjects
folders. - Optional: unpack a release Epip pak and extract its contents into your repository, without overriding any files. This will get you files that are gitignored, such as Generic textures and some Python scripts.
