 Decompilation in progress of Animal Crossing (GAFE01)
 
-An N64 version of the game is being worked on [here](https://github.com/zeldaret/af)
+A decompilation of the original N64 version of the game is being worked on [here](https://github.com/zeldaret/af).
 ## Cloning
 
 Use `--recursive` when cloning to have ppcdis in the repository. 
 
-## Build
+## Building
 
-**It's preferible to use [wibo](https://github.com/decompals/wibo), a lightweight
-Wine replacement to work with the compilers, but Wine is still usable**
+> ℹ️ When using Windows, it's recommended to use WSL.
 
-### Building
+### Docker
 
-- Dump a copy of the game and extract **main.dol** and **foresta.rel.szs**.
-- Decompress **foresta.rel.szs** with yaz0 found in *tools/*.
-- Place **main.dol** and **foresta.rel** in *dump/*.
-- Place CodeWarrior 1.3.2 in *tools/1.3.2/* and 1.2.5n in *tools/1.2.5n/*.
-- Download [CodeWarrior 1.3.2r](https://mega.nz/file/WuBFTCLT#TmB5R4-1mEFkk4G1Vjn9_cHXRD9wOIH9CtOLaVSWEas) and extract it to *tools/1.3.2r/*.
-- Set the `N64_SDK` environmental variables with the path of your libultra or equivalent headers.
-	- Headers should be at `$N64_SDK/ultra/usr/include`.
-    - You may need to modify `Gpopmtx`'s `param` member to be `unsigned int`.
-- Install DevkitPPC, Ninja and Python:
-- Install Python modules from requirements.txt (`pip install -r requirements.txt`)
-- Run configure.py
-- Run ninja
+1. Dump a copy of the game and extract **main.dol** and **foresta.rel.szs**.
+2. Decompress **foresta.rel.szs** with yaz0 found in *tools/* (`yaz0 -d foresta.rel.szs foresta.rel`).
+3. Place **main.dol** and **foresta.rel** in *dump/*.
+4. Download the [CodeWarrior 1.3.2 and 1.2.5n compilers](https://files.decomp.dev/compilers_20230715.zip) and extract them to *tools/1.3.2/* and *tools/1.2.5n/*, respectively.
+5. Download the [CodeWarrior 1.3.2r compiler](https://mega.nz/file/WuBFTCLT#TmB5R4-1mEFkk4G1Vjn9_cHXRD9wOIH9CtOLaVSWEas) and extract it to *tools/1.3.2r/*.
+6. Install Docker.
+7. Build the Docker image (`docker build -t ac-decomp .`).
+8. Run configure.py (`docker run -it --rm -v ${PWD}:/ac-decomp ac-decomp python3 configure.py`).
+9. Run ninja (`docker run -it --rm -v ${PWD}:/ac-decomp ac-decomp ninja`).
+
+### Build manually
+
+> ℹ️ When building manually from a work directory originally used for Docker, you will need to run `sudo ninja -t clean` for the build to execute properly.
+
+1. Dump a copy of the game and extract **main.dol** and **foresta.rel.szs**.
+2. Decompress **foresta.rel.szs** with yaz0 found in *tools/* (`yaz0 -d foresta.rel.szs foresta.rel`).
+3. Place **main.dol** and **foresta.rel** in *dump/*.
+4. Download the [CodeWarrior 1.3.2 and 1.2.5n compilers](https://files.decomp.dev/compilers_20230715.zip) and extract them to *tools/1.3.2/* and *tools/1.2.5n/*, respectively.
+5. Download the [CodeWarrior 1.3.2r compiler](https://mega.nz/file/WuBFTCLT#TmB5R4-1mEFkk4G1Vjn9_cHXRD9wOIH9CtOLaVSWEas) and extract it to *tools/1.3.2r/*.
+6. Install Python, pip, and [ninja](https://github.com/ninja-build/ninja/wiki/Pre-built-Ninja-packages#package-managers) using your package manager of choice.
+7. Install Python modules from requirements.txt (`pip install -r requirements.txt`).
+8. Install [wibo](https://github.com/decompals/wibo)
+    - Wibo is a lightweight Wine replacement that's tailor-made for use with decomp projects. Regular Wine can be used if preferred, but for the purposes of this guide, these instructions will use wibo.
+    - Download [the latest GitHub release](https://github.com/decompals/wibo/releases/latest) and run `install ./wibo /usr/bin` to install it to your system.
+9. Install devkitPPC.
+    - To get devkitPPC, you'll need [devkitPro Pacman](https://devkitpro.org/wiki/devkitPro_pacman#Installing_devkitPro_Pacman).
+        - Run `dkp-pacman -S devkitPPC` once dkp-pacman is installed to install devkitPPC.
+        - Set the `DEVKITPPC` environment variable to */opt/devkitpro/devkitPPC*.
+10. Set the `N64_SDK` environment variable to the path of your libultra or equivalent headers. If you need headers, you can use the ones from [ultralib](https://github.com/decompals/ultralib).
+    - Headers should be located at `$N64_SDK/ultra/usr/include`.
+    - You may need to modify `Gpopmtx`'s `param` member to be `unsigned int` in **gbi.h**.
+11. Run `python3 configure.py`.
+12. Run `ninja`.
