Question

I am trying to build Horde3d on windows 8 with visual studio 2012. The error that I get is very explicit but I have still no clue what I have to change. For example I can’t find %(Link.OutputFile) anywhere

C:\Program Files
(x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft.Cpp\v4.0\V110\Microsoft.CppBuild.targets(1137,5):
warning MSB8012:
TargetPath(C:\horde3d\Horde3D\Samples\Chicago../../Build/Sample
Chicago/Debug\Sample Chicago.exe) does not match the Linker’s
OutputFile property value (C:\horde3d\Horde3D\Build\Sample
Chicago\Debug\Sample_Chicago.exe). This may cause your project to
build incorrectly. To correct this, please make sure that $(OutDir),
$(TargetName) and $(TargetExt) property values match the value
specified in %(Link.OutputFile). 1

Answer 1

I solved it by myself. I used cmake to output a vs2012 project.
