General / I'm having some problems to setup SFML 2.3 on Visual Studio2012.

Alright guys, I really didn't wanted to create that thread since you probably have to answer this kinda of question a hundred times per day. But here I go!

Since earlier this year I've been trying to play with SFML, but I was never able to setup it properly. I always get some error or DLL missing. And this wasn't a problem because I just wanted to play with it, but now I really need it for a College Project.

I'm using:
W10 64 bits.


Visual Studio 2012


And I've tried to setup a Visual C++ 12 (2013) - 32-bit SFML 2.3.2 version (because I need to create a win32 project)

I've followed the official tutorial, I've followed a youtube tutorial, I've tried on my on way. Nothing works.

I've tried multiple SFML versions (Visual C++ 12 32bit and Visual C++ 12 64bit, always creating a new project).

I've tried to paste the DLL file in the project's folder. But it still don't work.
Right now i'm trying with Visual C++ 11, and i'm getting these errors:

I'm trying to run suggested test code in the official website http://www.sfml-dev.org/tutorials/2.3/start-vc.php

Some additional SS:








So, what do I need to do to solve these problems? HOW CAN I SETUP THIS PROPERLY?

Sorry for the long post.
