--- IW7 CLIENT https://github.com/Joelrau/iw7-mod

-----ON GITHUB BE SURE TO COPY THE FILE INSTEAD OF DOWNLOADING A ZIP , YOU

--- Once you've Installed Everything

Type in your PC Search bar " Git CMD "

----- Once Opened in The Command Menu type the Following

" git clone { Copy and Paste IW7 Client Github Link Download} "

----Once Done It Should say Where the Files went on the COMMAND MENU , it should be named "iw7- mod " for me it was in my USERS files, it Should be for You as Well , But if it Inst Need to Find It

---- Once Found Open it up and Open the File Named " generate.bat "
Let it Run Fully And Download

----Once Done Generating the Files Open the " Build " Folder in the iw7-mod folder
Look for a folder named " iw7-mod.sln"
Open the File With Microsoft Visual Solution

---- Once in Visual Studio Your Screen Should Look Like This If You Installed It Properly mainly just need the "debug " and " x64 "

----Click On the Top Of The Screen " Build " And Click " Build Solution "

---- Let it Build And Once Done MAKE SURE IT SAYS " 11 SUCCEEDED "
If it Fails You can Try Deleting the Files And
Re downloading and Trying it again As it Might Fix it

----Once Done Go Back To the iw7- mod Folder And Open the " Build " File and Then the File Named " Bin " Next then "x64" , " Debug "

-----Once in debug Find 2 FIles Named " Iw7-Mod.exe " and " Runner.exe "

-----ONLY Copy These 2 Files and Paste Them in Your Infinite Warfare Game Directory

----Once In The Game Directory in order to launch You MUST Launch the " IW7-Mod.exe" In your Game Directory You CAN make a Desktop Shortcut or a Non Steam Game Shortcut

---Gametime on the client Still Counts Towards Your Actual Infinite Warfare Game If You Care

---Once the Clients Opened The Game Should Say " iw7-Mod "
