VS2013 build error

    Hi,

    today I downloaded the source following these instruction. Everything went swimmingly. I try a clean build before editing, and it gets to 'writer.cpp' before telling me that it "Cannot open source file: 'src\cajun\writer.cpp' : No such file or directory" as well as src\cajun\reader.cpp and src\cajun\elements.cpp. I thought it must be some issue with VS so I go to the src\ folder and what do I see? No cajun folder.. I remember a little while back i downloaded the old source and it worked well compiling under SCons but I never tried with VS.

    Thanks in advance for ya' help.

    Full build output (This was the third time I tried building):http://pastebin.com/xXmTAHwT

    That error is completely normal since that premade project is outdated. Plus they replaced the cajun library wich is why it's not there

    I'll see if I can update this today. I was busy yesterday. For now you can just right click -> Exclude From Project on the bad files, and also right click a folder -> Add -> Existing Item to add the jsoncpp stuff and whatever else it asks for.

    Edit: It should be updated now, try redownloading it: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/43784416/PowderToy/vs%202013%20project.zip
