Install and set up the MGCB Editor.If you have dotnet installed:

MGCB Editor is no longer a .NET global tool, and doesn't need to be installed or registered.

However, if you are migrating from 3.8.0, you will need to setup a configuration file. Next to your.csproj, create a folder nammed.config and a file within it nammeddotnet-tools.json with this content:

{"version":1,"isRoot":true,"tools": {"dotnet-mgcb": {"version":"3.8.1.263","commands": ["mgcb"]    },"dotnet-mgcb-editor": {"version":"3.8.1.263","commands": ["mgcb-editor"]    },"dotnet-mgcb-editor-linux": {"version":"3.8.1.263","commands": ["mgcb-editor-linux"]    },"dotnet-mgcb-editor-windows": {"version":"3.8.1.263","commands": ["mgcb-editor-windows"]    },"dotnet-mgcb-editor-mac": {"version":"3.8.1.263","commands": ["mgcb-editor-mac"]    }  }}

Please note that you can't use the3.8.1.* wildcard in thedotnet-tools.json file (tool versions have to be fully qualified). We strongly recommand that the versions match the MonoGame version referenced in your.csproj (if you're using the* wildcard, make sure that they don't end up mismatching if the nugets are updated without you noticing).

You will also need to add this to your.csproj:

<TargetName="RestoreDotnetTools"BeforeTargets="Restore">  <MessageText="Restoring dotnet tools"Importance="High" />  <ExecCommand="dotnet tool restore" /></Target>

If you need old global version of MGCB editor

dotnet tool install --global dotnet-mgcb-editormgcb-editor --register

Note: If you are using the older versions of the editor, then you need to updateits path in the project's setting accordingly.
