Step 2:

A. Open CMake, and set the source directory to your Source folder and set the build directory to your Build folder.
B. Click Configure and then afterwards click build.

Step 3:

A. Go into your build folder and locate the file which is named: SteerStone-Darkorbit.sln

B. Compile the project.

C. Once compiled, go into build folder and find the folder bin and you should see the compiled binaries such as:

SteerStone/
├── Build/bin/Release/

Step 4:

A. Go into your source folder, into SQL Folder and then into Base folder such as:

SteerStone/
├── Source/sql/Base

B. Query the base.sql into your MySQL Editor (for example: HeidiSQL).

Step 5:

A. Go back into your build directory where the compiled binaries are. Find game.conf.dist.
B. Find the MySQL Section settings and set the database username/password/database.
C. Rename Policy.conf.dist to Policy.conf do the same for Game aswell.
