as you can see, it is failing to build even though the files are in the directories it is stating. Also it will only allow me to build in debug and not in release.

Looks like you're missing dependencies. Google or use chatgpt for the missing files and tell visual studio where the files are after you get them downloaded.

the files are there though, i can open the location and see them when i check the folders it looks in

I recommend going with vcpkg and installing the packages- xxhash128, glfw3, glew also fun fact- I always build in debug mode, so I haven't touched the release in a while

[Simzy]

ive been trying to get vcpkg to install but i think my brain is just not working at the moment, i will wait for an update if you release it, only reason i wanted to build it is because of you adding the 16.9 into it as i cannot find a proper way to remove the black bars without zooming into it

There's now FILL_ASPECT_RATIO. The config defaults this value to 0 now
