Question about Piglet

[Mathew322]

So I'm thinking about seeing how difficult it is to build one or two texture mods for City of Heroes, and am looking into the Piglet Tool available on OuroDev: https://wiki.ourodev.com/view/Piglet

And this is going to sound like a fairly inexperienced question but do we need to use Visual Studio 2019 to build the executable for Piglet?

 

How does a program that was last updated 4 years ago not have a pre-compiled executable available for download? Is there a legal reason why I can't just download a .exe?

There's a pre-compiled Piglet executable on the OuroDev Git (which requires an account to access), and in the OuroDev Discord server, pinned in its #piglet-development channel.

OuroDev used to provide a compiled version (EDIT: or, at least one that was easily/readily accessible, considering Lunar Ronin's post above) but they stopped doing so years ago for some reason. Michiyo has been kind enough to provide a compiled copy of Piglet at this link.

Oh that's significantly easier, thanks and I'll have to link this in the appropriate places for other people to find.
