Following the AppGameKit Tier 2 guide to try and set up VS 2013. Guide shows where to find the 2013 lib files to manually set the VC 2013 library directories.
However

Quote: "Libraries (VS 2013)
•C:\Program Files (x86)\The Game Creators\AGK2\Tier 2\platform\windows\Lib\VS2013\Debug\
•C:\Program Files (x86)\The Game Creators\AGK2\Tier 2\platform\windows\Lib\VS2013\Release\
"


does not exist in my installation based on a 23 Nov download.

All I can find is
Quote: "Libraries (VS 2008)
•C:\Program Files (x86)\The Game Creators\AGK2\Tier 2\platform\windows\Lib\Debug\
•C:\Program Files (x86)\The Game Creators\AGK2\Tier 2\platform\windows\Lib\Release\
•Libraries (VS 2010)
•C:\Program Files (x86)\The Game Creators\AGK2\Tier 2\platform\windows\Lib\VS2010\Debug\
•C:\Program Files (x86)\The Game Creators\AGK2\Tier 2\platform\windows\Lib\VS2010\Release\
"


Anyone know where I can obtain the AppGameKit VS2013 lib files?

jamesL -- thanks.

I didn't get AGK2 off Steam but directly from TGC.

Anyone know when non-Steam folks like me might get the VS2013 lib update that the Guide refers to?

Hi, I'd like to know this as well. I can understand why TGC doesn't release the IDE every five minutes but this could be handled by the Install bit on the IDE, couldn't it ?

i think we will have to wait for a new version of AppGameKit to get the VS2013 libs & template

... unless you want to install Steam

from the announcement page on steam
Quote: "
Visual Studio 2013 Now Supported!
24 Nov
We've just released an update for the C++ Tier 2 users.

A new Visual Studio 2013 lib has been added.

There's also a template_windows_2013 project for it.

If you've already installed the C++ libraries to your own folder it won't automatically copy the new files until the next major update.

For now you can copy them immediately with the Tools->Install Additional Files menu option in the IDE.

The AppGameKit Team
"


so it appears to mew that even those not on steam can get the vs 2013 lib and template simple by '

Tools->Install Additional Files->install

or you can wait for the update

Blue Steel AU -- Thanks

After performing the Tools->Install Additional Files->install

I found the /platform/windows/Lib/VS2013/Release directory, but unlike the the VS2008 and VS2010 directories VS2013 does not have a Debug folder.

Is the VS2013 DEBUG version of the AGK2 library available to non-Steam users as well?

resolved --

Quote: "For now I've added the Visual Studio 2013 libs as an additional download to your products pages, just extract it into your Tier 2 folder and open the new template_windows_2013 project in the apps folder. You can't extract it to a separate folder on its own unless you also change the include paths to point to your Tier 2 folder.

When the next major update is released these libs will be included so this will no longer be necessary. "


template files compile fine for me with both Release and Debug libs

Yep, only 2010. I have a 2013 library from the Steam demo but it's a Release version and not Debug. I don't know what to do. Can't program now until this is resolved.

I'll have to look into these libs later, seems very important to get 2013 support running though with Microsoft's announcement of the free Visual Studio 2013 Community for individual developers http://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/products/visual-studio-community-vs

Well done TGC!
