Ive been getting an error when trying to launch the example mod, but make is doing just fine.

find: 'release-20210321': No such file or directory
find: './engineVERSION': No such file or directory
Required engine files not found.
Run `make all` in the mod directory to fetch and build the required files, then try again.

I am not getting any errors when building the example project with make all.
I have run make clean and rebuilt multiple times.

Can someone please help me with this issue? I am new to OpenRA modding, and just recently downloaded the Mod SDK.

The same happens for me on Windows when I try to launch via the mingw (git) shell or a command line terminal spawned from there. What happens when you open launch-game.cmd directly via double clicking?

We could add some kind of platform or shell detection and throw a more sensible error when someone tries to run the makefile or non-Windows launch scripts on Windows.

The problem for me is that launching via a shell/terminal/commandline spawned from the linux subsystem makes it try to use the find of that subsystem and not the Windows find.

Have you customized your windows terminal setup in any way?
