In order to run the game, people still need a .reg file from a windows vm. Dungeon Downloader should be able to generate this file automatically, which can then be imported by the user. With this feature we'd remove the need for any windows install.
What needs to be done?
[ ] Figure out all the keys the launcher sets
[ ] Create/find a function that can convert some regular python object (probably a dict) into a .reg file and back again
[ ] Create a function for calculating all required keys upon an update or full download
[ ] Add a CLI subcommand for this, perhaps something like dungeondownloader registry -o "output.reg"
Alternatively, every time there's an update the script could automatically create the new file and output to current working folder
There should also be an alert given to the user when they need to update their registry and instructions on how to import .reg files in wine
A feature that can be added later would be to automatically set the registry values when running in windows/wine through winreg.
