 1. Make sure you have all [prerequisites](#prerequisites) installed
-2. Clone the repository in a location of your choice with `git clone --recursive https://github.com/BeamMP/BeamMP-Server`. Now change into the cloned directory by running `cd BeamMP-Server`.
-3. Checkout the branch of the release you want to compile (`master` is often unstable), for example `git checkout tags/v1.20` for version 1.20. You can find the latest version [here](https://github.com/BeamMP/BeamMP-Server/tags).
-4. Run `cmake .` (with `.`)
-5. Run `make`
-6. You will now have a `BeamMP-Server` file in your directory, which is executable with `./BeamMP-Server` (`.\BeamMP-Server.exe` for windows). Follow the (windows or linux, doesnt matter) instructions on the [wiki](https://wiki.beammp.com/en/home/Server_Mod) for further setup after installation (which we just did), such as port-forwarding and getting a key to actually run the server.
