docs(website): drop zstd from the install requirements
ZstdNet bundles libzstd for every RID, so nothing needs a system zstd.
Verified: the 15 ManagedArchive round-trip tests pass in a container
with no zstd package installed, and the build deploys
runtimes/<rid>/native/libzstd.* for linux-x64, linux-arm64, osx-x64,
osx-arm64 and win. The apt/dnf "zstd" package is the CLI tool, which
nothing shells out to.

Also aligns the Fedora line to libicu rather than libicu-devel, matching
the README and NativeLibraryChecker.

Getting Started

  • Install prerequisite requirements
  • Clone this repository (or download the latest):
    • git clone https://github.com/modernuo/ModernUO.git
  • Open ModernUO.sln to start developing

Building/Publishing

Run ./publish.cmd (Windows) or ./publish.sh (Linux/macOS) with no arguments to launch the guided build tool. It will:

  • Check prerequisites (.NET SDK, native libraries)
  • Walk you through configuration and platform selection
  • Build and publish the server to the Distribution directory
  • Show deployment instructions for cross-compiled builds

Command Line

./publish.cmd [release|debug] [os] [arch]

Linux Prerequisites

Fedora, CentOS, RHEL, AlmaLinux, Rocky, etc

dnf upgrade --refresh -y
# RHEL-family distributions (CentOS Stream, AlmaLinux, Rocky, RHEL) need CRB and EPEL enabled.
# Fedora skips this block.
dnf install -y dnf-plugins-core
dnf config-manager --set-enabled crb
dnf install -y epel-release
# Prerequisites
dnf install -y findutils libicu libdeflate-devel zstd libargon2-devel

Ubuntu, Debian, etc

apt-get update -y
apt-get install -y libicu-dev libdeflate-dev zstd libargon2-dev

OSX Requirements

brew install icu4c libdeflate zstd argon2

Running the Server

  • Follow the publish instructions
  • The Distribution directory is portable — copy it to your production server for deployment
  • Run ModernUO.exe or dotnet ModernUO.dll from the Distribution directory
  • On first run, the server will prompt you to configure game data file locations
