Make Your Choice

Make Your Choice is a server region changer for Dead by Daylight. It allows you to play on any server of choice.

Installation: Windows

Installation

Download the latest .exe file from the Releases page and run it as administrator.

Supported Windows Versions

• Windows 10
• Windows 11

UAC Popup & SmartScreen Alert

The application needs to be run with administrator permissions to ensure the hosts file can be edited. Since I don't want to pay Microsoft a fee for getting this free application signed, you will be met with a prompt to trust the unknown developer.

The SmartScreen Alert only appears on Windows 8 and newer.

Installation: Linux / SteamOS

Note

For SteamOS users: There are two ways to use Make Your Choice:

1. Download the binary and simply run it. For this, follow the steps for "Precompiled Binary" at the bottom. (Easiest)
2. Disable system immutability, and follow the steps for Arch Linux. This will give you a nice desktop entry which makes it easier to use the program. (Advanced, only recommended for nerds)

Method 1: Package Manager

Currently, only Arch Linux is supported for this method.
If you would like to contribute: feel free to distribute Make Your Choice for other package managers, and give me a headsup so I can provide official steps for other people to follow.

Arch

Simply install the program from the AUR using your AUR helper of choice:

# Using yay
yay -S make-your-choice

# Using paru
paru -S make-your-choice

# Using pikaur
pikaur -S make-your-choice

Method 2: Build & Install From Source (Makefile)

This method can be used to build and install the program straight from source using Makefile. This is the best choice for most distros that aren't SteamOS or Arch.

Prerequisites

Install the prerequisite packages in order to build, install and run the program. If your distro isn't listed below, find out the correct package names for your distro's package manager.

Arch

sudo pacman -S rust gtk4 polkit base-devel git

Debian / Ubuntu / ZorinOS

sudo apt install cargo rustc make gcc pkg-config libgtk-4-dev git policykit-1

Fedora

sudo dnf install cargo rust make gcc pkg-config gtk4-devel git polkit

openSUSE

sudo zypper install cargo rust make gcc pkg-config gtk4-devel git polkit

Build & Install

Clone and install using Makefile:

cd ~/ && git clone https://github.com/laewliet/make-your-choice.git
cd make-your-choice/linux/makefile && make install
cd ~/ && rm -rf ~/make-your-choice

After installation, the clone will be removed.

Method 3: Precompiled Binary

This option won't provide desktop entries to easily access the app. Use this only if you have no other options available. No prerequisites are required. Simply download the binary from the Releases page and run it.

This option is recommended if you have a SteamOS device.
