Title: cannot setup SFML 2.6 on Visual Studio 2022.
Post by: evanbenn3 on September 29, 2023, 09:19:14 am

I have been trying to setup SFML 2.6. But i cannot because the properties window for the project, of all configurations and x64 does not give me the option of C/C++. And i don't know where i should put the lib and include directories. i don't know if i am missing something from my VS2022 install, or if the official tutorial is outdated. I do not see anyone else with my problem, and i don't know much so please help as much as you can.

This is a weird quirk of Visual Studio - if you created a 'new empty project' the C/C++ option won't appear until you add at least one source file, even if it's just an empty one. Add something like main.cpp and the option will become available.
