I really tried for about 2 hours to compile it for you, but the code is quite old and contains some errors.

For example, in the CMakeLists.txt, I found this line:

${CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_DIR}/weapons.cpp

It references a file that doesn’t exist, causing a compilation issue.

Another important point is the Boost version. The code requires Boost 1.66. If you use a version higher than that, such as 1.70 or above, it will cause an error. Specifically, this line:

boost::asio::io_service service;

Needs to be replaced with:

boost::asio::io_context service;

Additionally, for the dependencies, you'll need to download VCPKG. Here are the steps:

1. Open CMD and navigate to the C:\ directory:

cd C:\

2. Clone the VCPKG repository:

git clone https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg.git

3. Go into the VCPKG folder:

cd C:\vcpkg

4. Run the bootstrap script:

.\bootstrap-vcpkg.bat

5. Install the necessary dependencies:

.\vcpkg install lua boost pugixml libmysql
