How to build this project?

First thank you for developing this tool - I have been playing war3 since many years ago, it's great to play it in a wide screen ^_^

I just want to test it on my local PC, by any chance you can share how do you compile this project and generate the .mix file? I tried to use msbuild but saw error:
Cannot open include file: "windows.h": No such file or dir

After tried to Google I found I may miss the Windows SDK - however, after checking Win10 SDK in installer I still see the same error. What did miss? Can you share some thoughts?

Prevent UI Stretch

Hi, first of all, I want to say a big thanks ! Thanks man, this is awesome, you did a great job with this project, eventually u made 1.31 and up resoloution available in low versions and thats epic

The only thing that is still not as good, is UI, I saw your work about memory hack and I'm sure you are a pro with UI stuff too, so thats why I'm asking if it is possible, fix UI stretch

Here is a demo of 1.31 and reforged, both are nice, it would be really good if we get option to choose between UI mode, transparent or full, or anything but not the default stretch ! stretching makes it really ugly, the square boxes become rectangle and the map preview gets oversize and so on ...

And again, a Huge thanks for this epic project
