dnlib project won't load

[HerrimanCoder]

I downloaded the latest source on June 28, 2018 and opened the sln in Visual Studio 2017. I cannot build the solution because the dnlib project won't load and the dnlib folder is completely empty.

So then I tracked down the dnlib source from here:
https://github.com/0xd4d/dnlib

I downloaded it, opened in VS17, compiled, and added all the bad references in ConfuserEx to dnlib.dll - and now I get hundreds of compile errors.

Is there not just a set of binaries I can download for ConfuserEx? I really have no need for the source. Or does anyone have a ConfuserEx source code package that actually compiles right out of the box?

There are NuGet-packages available.

@HerrimanCoder the dnlib from @0xd4d is 2 years ahead of the one used in ConfuserEx (the last time ConfuserEx was updated was 2 years ago).

Use the one from @yck1509's branch: https://github.com/yck1509/dnlib/tree/532c767a9a4f6af51cd4eb5d1c0af750c8509c5d

I have solved by running following command in a console:

git submodule update --init

I tried running git submodule update --init
...and I got: fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git
