With the release of Visual Studio Express 2010 now comes the question does it work with Star Trek Legacy mission compiling? I had word from one person that they installed the 2010 beta and it didn’t compile or didn’t compile properly. The only answer I have at this time is I don’t know. I’ll see about downloading and setting up Visual C++ Express 2010 on a system and try to compile some mission scripts. 2005 and 2008 worked although 2005 required the x86 SDK to be installed as well, while 2008 had it built in.

Belated update here. Yes I installed V C++ 2010 and NO it didn’t work. 2010 also doesn’t appear to come with the SDK for compiling x86 programs. I did just come across the win32 SDK though for 2010. I figured I’d post links to it here for download. Personally I still use 2008 for everything I do Legacy related or anything else that is. But when I can I’ll install 2010 again and the SDK and see if Legacy will compile. If it does I will likely switch over to using 2010 for everything else if I don’t find other issues with it.
