cmake .. -G 'Unix Makefiles' -DUSE_SDL2_LIBS=1 error about supermariowar HOT 4 CLOSED

Hi, the error says:

It seems you've forgot to clone the dependencies; dependencies/enet is not
a git repository. Please run git submodule update --init first.

It seems you've forgot to clone the dependencies; dependencies/yaml-cpp-noboost is not
a git repository. Please run git submodule update --init first.

So it seems you haven't cloned the dependencies. As the message says, you can do that by running git submodule update --init.

alright i figured it out, the error had nothin to do with anything here, turns out im just a dumbass and downloaded the github instead of using git clone, this was cause i tried using git clone after figuring out you were meant to do that and after typing the command correctly i kept getting and error, turns out its cause i did this after i downloaded the github version and it couldnt clone anything due to the directory having files already.

new issue, trying to run the program pops up with "the code execution cannot proceed because [INSERT FILE.dll] was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this problem"

these files are, libwinpthread-1.dll, SDL2.dll, SDL2_image.dll, and SDL2_mixer.dll. I did all the instructions again and yet still get this error.

Edit: nvm got it

To run any executable, all of the DLLs it depends on must be somewhere where the system (ie. Windows) finds it. On Windows, often the most accessible location is the directory of the EXE, ie. you can fix this by copying the required DLLs next to the game.
