im having issues followed this Compiling on Windows (CMake) (https://github.com/opentibiabr/canary/wiki/Compiling-on-Windows-(CMake)) can somebody help me?

can somebody help me?

Mehah compilation using cmake works ( Compiling on Windows (CMake) (https://github.com/mehah/otclient/wiki/Compiling-on-Windows-(CMake)) ). I've tested it 15 minutes ago.

This is OTClient Mehah thread, not canary OTS thread. Next time post it in Support (https://otland.net/forums/support.16/)

Anyway, canary cmake build also works for me. Downloaded newest vcpkg, followed all steps and it compiles using cmake instruction.
cmake build ( Compiling on Windows (CMake) (https://github.com/opentibiabr/canary/wiki/Compiling-on-Windows-(CMake)) ) creates canary.exe in canary\build\windows-release\bin directory.
Visual Studio build ( Compilling on Windows (Visual Studio Solution) (https://github.com/opentibiabr/canary/wiki/Compilling-on-Windows-(Visual-Studio-Solution)) ) creates canary-sln.exe in main canary directory.

Perform the steps without running PowerShell as administrator, otherwise an error will occur. And if you have MinGW on the C drive, rename it to something else as it might cause a conflict.
