Do I need to compile into *.asi file for editing the source codes?

Hi aitor!
It's really an awesome work to make this environment for self-driving car research.
I'm trying to edit the source codes you provided to add the lane points near the ego vehicle to the dataset.
It seems that I should look into the *.cpp files since I see you calculated the lane reward using 'getCurrentLanePoints' function in 'LaneRewarder.cpp'. By the way, if I manage to edit the code to return the lane points, do I need to compile the whole source codes into an *.asi file and just copy that into the GTA root directory? If yes, how can I do that?
If not bothering you much, could you also explain how the source codes actually work interactively?
Plus, I'll be grateful for any suggestions for getting the ground truth lane points.
Thanks again for making this wonderful tool.

as far as I know, Yes. @mymyongg
you need to build (or compile) this source code to *.asi file and place it to GTAV home folder to apply your modification.

• first of all, open DeepGTAV.vcxproj file to build *.asi file
• change some codes
• Press Ctrl + Shift + B to build this solution. (or build --> Build Solution)
• in menu tab, project --> DeepGTAV properties --> Build Event --> Pose-Build Event, and remove Command Line if your got some error while building
• move *.asi files which is in bin\ to your GTAV home folder
• run GTAV
• if there is no error, your modification is applied
