How do I compile egoboo on windows xp!?
Hi! I just read the tutorial and downloaded all the packages, and this is were I hit a problem. I installed the Visual Studio 2010, because I couldn't find 2008, and I can't find this VC folder. Is it not included in Visual Studios 2010? Am I looking in the wrong folder?

Normally, you should be able lo load up the 2008 version into the 2010, but there was a change in the way that you specify special directories and other things in 2010 that makes this not work properly.
There is a set of project files for visual studio 2010 on the subversion repository (svn). There is a readme file that tells you how to set up the location that the libraries must be installed to get this project file to build.
Unfortunately, the version on the svn is not working, so forward one step, back two...

So is there a way to download it at all with 2010, or must I dig up 2008?

Which version is this? (the microsoft sdk installed by visual studio 2010 is under C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A for Win7, could be 5.1 for XP)
Newest version of README.windows (may not be compatable with version you're trying to compile)

I use visual studio 2010 without any problems. It was a bit hassle to setup though.
