Download Devast3d's latest release and chose to clone in GitHub desktop
https://github.com/devast3d/DORProject (new repo link)
https://github.com/devast3d/DarkOmenReborn (old repo link)
1) GitHub then created a new DarkOmenReborn folder within my empty DarkOmenReborn folder E:\DarkOmenReborn\DarkOmenReborn
2) I then have to disable my anti virus and firewall otherwise the files can not unpack properly when I run Setup.bat and then GenerateProjectFiles.bat
3) This creates a Visual Studio solution file to open in visual studio but before I do that I have to locate
E:\DarkOmenReborn\DarkOmenReborn\Engine\Build\BatchFiles
Build.bat and right click it to go properties and add everyone into the security tab and give them full permission
4) Then I double click on the visual studio solution file and wait around 15mins while it installs and updates within visual studio. Eventually I can then press the green run/debug button and it will start auto launching UE but does take 10mins to complete the setup until UE editor is open and ready to run as a player
5) My anti virus and firewall had previously prevented files being setup and especially the Build.bat would always fail to build in VS until I added everyone with full permission on its properties security tab. I can remote in for further assistance if required, using Teamviewer 12
