About the setup #1

Hi Jeroen,

Thank you for the works.

I am pretty new to Trimesh2. Could you please tell me how to setup trimesh2 in Visual Studio 2015? (e.g., if I have an empty Win32 console project, what should I do to use trimesh2 features?)

Looking forward to your reply.

Best regards, Lin

First, build the Trimesh2 project on your computer using the Visual Studio Project in \trimesh2\msvc\vs2015. Building it in Release and Debug mode should create folders in the main trimesh2 folder named lib.Win64.vs140(64 bit) and lib.Win32.vs140 (32-bit). In these folders will be the static libraries for Trimesh, trimesh.lib and trimeshd.lib.

To use TriMesh2 in your project, make sure you include the include\TriMesh.h file, and make sure your linker can find either trimesh.lib (for Release builds) or trimeshd.lib (for Debug builds).

For an example, check the mesh_view project in trimesh2\msvc\vs2015\mesh_view. This is an utility from the original TriMesh2 project which is now built using VS 2015. Your own project should have a similar setup.
