Andrew Zambazos f557835b19 Add Fallout 4 path resolver and update deploys
Introduce resolve-fallout4-path.bat to centralize locating the Fallout 4 installation. deploy-all.bat and deploy-ui.bat now call the resolver (accept an optional path arg or prompt interactively), and the chosen path is saved to a local .fallout4-path file (added to .gitignore). Updated docs (docs/dev-log.md, plugin/setup.md) to reflect the new behavior and usage examples. The resolver normalizes game or Data paths, probes common Steam locations, prompts the user when needed, and exports F4_DIR and DATA_DIR for callers.

Commonwealth Online Plugin

This is the native Commonwealth Online F4SE plugin using CommonLibF4.

Requirements

  • XMake [3.0.0+]
  • C++23 Compiler (MSVC or Clang-CL)

Getting Started

git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/libxse/Fallout4Together
cd Fallout4Together

Build

To build the project, run the following command:

xmake build

Note: This will generate a build/windows/ directory in the project's root directory with the build output.

Build Output (Optional)

If you want to redirect the build output, set one of the following environment variables:

  • Path to a Mod Manager mods folder: XSE_FO4_MODS_PATH

    or

  • Path to a Fallout 4 install folder: XSE_FO4_GAME_PATH

Project Generation (Optional)

If you use Visual Studio, run the following command:

xmake project -k vsxmake

Note: This will generate a vsxmakeXXXX/ directory in the project's root directory using the latest version of Visual Studio installed on the system.

Alternatively, if you do not use Visual Studio, you can generate a compile_commands.json file for use with a laguage server like clangd in any code editor that supports it, like vscode:

xmake project -k compile_commands

Note: You must have a language server extension installed to make use of this file. I recommend clangd. Do not have more than one installed at a time as they will conflict with each other. I also recommend installing the xmake extension if available to make building the project easier.

Upgrading Packages (Optional)

If you want to upgrade the project's dependencies, run the following commands:

xmake repo --update
xmake require --upgrade
