Title: [SOLVED] SFML 1.6 Source code (need VS 2015 binaries)
Post by: Naufr4g0 on August 23, 2018, 07:21:18 pm

As the subject suggests I'm looking for SFML 1.6 source code.
I have some old projects I want to import on Visual Studio 2015.
I can't find any binaries or source code for this IDE and I want to make some changes to those projects.
Could someone help me?

1.x tag on GitHub (https://github.com/SFML/SFML/tree/1.x)
Way old binaries (https://www.sfml-dev.org/download/sfml/1.6/)

Don't think anyone has tested it with newer versions of VS, I mean 1.x was 8 years ago. ;)

Thanks for links, but the lack of CMakeLists.txt files is discouraging me. :(
It's strange that I managed to compile SFML 1.6 libraries some years ago on Visual Studio 2010, using CMake for building.
Since I'm not in the mood to waste time compiling outdated libraries, I think I'll convert the games to the latest version of SFML. After all I'm already using SFML 2.5 for some fresh projects! :)

I think it's a good idea to update the code to SFML 2.5. :)

For SFML 1.6 we provided VS project files. In theory one should be able to update the VS 2008 project file (https://github.com/SFML/SFML/tree/1.x/build/vc2008) to 2015/2017.

Thanks eXpl0it3r I solved the problem! :D
I had already tried to update the project for vs2008 before, but for some reason I got some compilation errors for library examples (they need external libraries).
SFML binaries and libs were all ok, instead! :)
