Does anyone know how to compile Marlin?
I am trying to get this going since my Creality Direct Drive kit runs the extruder in reverse now and can you believe it, Creality doesn't seem to bother to compile a firmware for their own kit :(
I installed Visual Studio and installed PIO and the Marlin Auto Build, then the only file I edited was the configuration.h to set the reverse extruder to true. Alas, I get a bunch of errors in misc script files that are part of either the marlin auto build or PIO, I'm not sure which. Anyone know how to fix this? I can't print anything unless I take it apart and throw away the direct drive kit :( :( !!!!

I never got it figured out compiling it myself but I emailed Creality support and a couple of days later they emailed me a version compiled with what I needed.
