What version of VS Express 2013? (Solved)
« on: July 13, 2015, 11:42:40 am »
So, after a long time, I decided to use SFML to create short movies to be used for flipped classroom in elementary school. I used SFML a couple of years ago and I haven´t found any other tool as versatile as SFML.

*So, I have a PC with W 8.1 personal 64.
*I want to use the latest binding, 2.3.1, together with Thor. (I didn't realize how useful Thor is and failed that part last time I tried SFML).
*If I choose the libraries for "Visual C++ 12 (2013) - 32-bit", can I use that with Thor?
*What free version of Visual studio express shall I install? On the homepage ( https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/products/visual-studio-express-vs.aspx ) there are these different versions to choose from:
-Community 2013
-Express 2013 for Web
-Express 2013 for Windows
-Express 2013 for Windows Desktop
-Team Foundation Server 2013 Express

Which one of these will be free and work with the SFML library I intend to download? (Visual C++ 12 (2013) - 32-bit, if it works with Thor)

Yours sincerely:
Ingemar

Use "Community 2013" version. That compiler should be compatible with the provided 2013 binaries and you should be able to use Thor.
