First of all the install errors which may be causing the build errors:

Do note i am building via Visual Studio Community 2015 but either method causes the same issue

[jensj12]

Have you read the readme? There are some scripts that need to be run before you can build using VS.

[craftxbox]

Didnt notice until now that there are alot of errors too, assuming those are a result of the issue already here as most of them reference somehting about SDL

[craftxbox]

Those are the scripts giving issues

 

[jensj12]

You said you were using Visual Studio to build the game. Quit VS until you got the game to run at least once through PowerShell. Move towards the repository (if you use github, ...\documents\GitHub\OpenRCT2 is the default location) in PowerShell and run '.\setenv.ps1', then 'install', 'build all' and at last 'run'. If the game pops up you can quit safely and continue in VS. Running 'install' should take care of all the dependencies you need.

Do you mean .\setenv.ps1? setenv.ps does not exist

Yes, fixed it in my post.

[craftxbox]

okay so setenv.ps1 runs and quickly exits, assuming thats normal cause it didnt spit errors but install gave me this:

I think I know what you did there as I did the same thing yesterday. Don't navigate to the file and run it with powershell, first open powershell, then navigate to the repository inside powershell (using 'cd C:\Users\luke_2\Source\Repos\OpenRCT22'). Then you can run the scripts after each other inside the same powershell window. If powershell gives a security error, follow the link it gives and look there for information on how to run it in 'remoteSigned' security mode.

On another note, it looks like you've cloned the repository using VS, but I highly recommend using github desktop for that (for easy syncing later on). Make sure you follow these steps (missed them the first time too) and open your own fork in github windows (the official OpenRCT2 repository will be your 'remote tracking branch').

You might want to come to the dev chat to continue the conversation there.

Edit: the version of windows powershell was outdated

i actually use SourceTree but i clone it via VS

 

[Broxzier]

You are able to call install, so that means setenv.ps has done its job. install however seems to have some errors. From the + signs in there it looks like it has some conflicts. Try resetting your cloned branch:

git reset --hard upstream/develop

assuming upstream is the original repository, and you are on the develop branch.

Then run the install script to download the dependencies - this will rid you of all the missing files

Then run `build all` to build the game and its dependencies. From here you should be able to build the game from VS.

Generally that issue is caused when you don't have the correct version of powershell. Update powershell and Invoke-WebRequest will work.
