A bit of a question but #62

Closed BurgerMeister777 closed 3 years ago

BurgerMeister777 commented 3 years ago

I'm very new to this whole compilation ordeal. I followed all the steps up to the one running setup.bat, and for some reason the setup.bat requires a 'vcvarsall.bat directory'. I pointed it to my directory: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Professional\VC\Auxiliary\Build\vcvarsall.bat.

It then says it can't find vcvarsall.bat when I pointed it directly towards vcvarsall.bat. Any help here? I'm probably making a very idiotic mistake somewhere but like I said I'm very very new to this business. Removing the 'vcvarsall.bat' part from the directory just caused the whole thing to close. Maybe I'm pointing it towards a wrong bat file?

Also something to keep in mind is that I'm using the latest version of the full rewrite.

when it asked for the vcvarsall.bat, did you put it in quotes? "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Professional\VC\Auxiliary\Build\vcvarsall.bat"? I'll add the Professional version to the list of automatically tested paths

d161b90baa66bda9b95112f7b6741e815765f70d should have it auto detect your version of msvc

I didn't put it in quotes. Though its nice to get a response on this. I'll try 'updating' of sorts and seeing what follows through.

So it worked like a charm now. Thank you! A lot easier than I thought it'd be once the recent commit got implemented.
