Openframeworks is an awesome framework. Heard about Openframeworks on Super Hexagon credits. Decided to try it out with Visual Studio 2015.
Extracted the Openframeworks to c drive. Using the Project Generator inside it, created a test app. Open that in the visual studio 2015 and hit compile. Problem begins. Openframeworks is not compiling in visual studio 2015. Turns out I need to do a custom installation rather than typical installation of visual studio 2015. So went to uninstall the visual studio 2015. But turns out, there’s an option to re-install. Using re-install I selected the common c++ tools in the options menu under the visual c++ section. And compiling again it works. Great. Now What?
Decided to make a typing game (similar to my abandoned project Big Fat Ninja). It was also later became kind of abandoned I guess. 🙂
Working in Visual Studio 2015 was super awesome. Intellisense has really matured. The need to go back and forth to header and source files are now gone.
