EQEmulator Forums - Server.sln missing?

Greetings!

Been trying to use this guide.

I've gotten stuck very early on. I know the guide is dated, but it seems to be the most recent.

Step 5 states to set up the VC++ Directories settings.

Quote:

5.Now we install Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition
You can just install this with all the default installation. Nothing to
do until after installation is complete. But once it is done;
Open up the program and on the menu at top, click on "Tools"
From that menu choose "Options" and then you will see a menu list with
"Projects and Solutions" with a little "+" sign to expand that menu.
You will see "VC++ Directories" to click on and change the menu to the right.
On the top right of the menu you will see "Show directories for" and under
that, by default, it will show "Executable files".
First you need to change that to "Include files" from the drop down menu.
You will also see a little yellow folder icon under that drop down menu.
This is to "add a new line". After you click on that and see a new line,
you will see a grey icon to the right of that line with 3 dots [...]
Click on that to browse for the following: You will repeat this for all 3
new lines.***NOTE** the following are FOLDERS, not files.

INCLUDE:

C:\mysql\include
C:\perl\lib\CORE
C:\zlib\include

Now after those 3, change the "Show directories for" to Library files and
repeat the steps for the following 3: (notice, a couple are different)

LIBRARY:
C:\mysql\lib\opt
C:\perl\lib\CORE
C:\zlib\lib

OK, Your done with installing the C++ program.

Visual C++ 2010 does not allow this. It says the options have been deprecated. So I skipped this step, hoping I'd get the option later on.

I continued on with the different installations and downloaded the svn via TortioseSVN. Now when I go to do the first compile, there is no Server.sln in the said folder. I've searched for it and browsed forums for a few hours and I don't know what I'm missing.

I'm not sure if the part I can't do in step 5 is the source of my problem or if these guides are just outdated. More than likely, my ignorance is the problem! Any help would be appreciated.
