Protoc error: Installing Gazebo on Windows 10 (Stuck at ign-msgs). #129

I'm installing Gazebo on Windows 10 (following the tutorial). I managed to complete the installation up to ign-msgs, everything else was successful after little adjustments (simply editing the CMakeCache with proper addresses). The .\configure works

E:\gz-ws\ign-msgs>.\configure

E:\gz-ws\ign-msgs>call :download_unzip_install protobuf-3.4.1-vc15-x64-dll-MD.zip The system cannot find the batch label specified - download_unzip_install

E:\gz-ws\ign-msgs>call :install_ign_project ign-math ign-math4 The system cannot find the batch label specified - install_ign_project Configuring for build type Release

E:\gz-ws\ign-msgs>cd /d E:\gz-ws\ign-msgs\

E:\gz-ws\ign-msgs>md build A subdirectory or file build already exists.

E:\gz-ws\ign-msgs>cd build

E:\gz-ws\ign-msgs\build>cmake .. -G "NMake Makefiles" -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE="Release" -DBUILD_TESTING:BOOL=False -- ignition-msgs1 version 1.0.0 -- Operating system is Windows

Next when I run nmake, I get a plugin error.

E:\gz-ws\ign-msgs\build>nmake

How can I solve this?

The documentation and artifacts to compile on Windows are outdated. Instead of fixing the current mess, let's try to find a better approach, we'll appreciate your experience and opinions on the alternatives proposed and linked in https://github.com/osrf/gazebo/issues/2901. Thanks.
