Contributions are welcome, MSVC 2015 is currently used to build release DLLs, and is therefore the recommended IDE. If you are not sure what you want to work on take a look at the bug tracker.
- Clone and build the MSVC solution, if the toolkit is installed in an usually location you might need to change the output directory.
- Follow the steps listed under installation to get patched exes or manually inject H2Codez.dll into the process at startup.
- Report issues on the bug tracker, please include an explanation of how you caused the issue.
- If the issue in question causes a crash, a minidump should be generated, hang on to it as it might be needed to fix rare bugs.
- If in doubt about including a detail, include it as more details about a bug make it easier to understand and fix.
