Anyone successfully compiling with VS2015?

Well, if you have 2013 installed as well as 2015, and if you don't let 2015 try to upgrade the project when it complains, you can keep CMake and everything else the same and VS2015 will build the solution using 2013's compiler. Everything hunky dory.

An extra 8 gigs used up on my drive is a small price to pay to be able to stick to one IDE for all my projects.

Are you having trouble using CMake and Visual Studio 2015 to compile the server that way? Or are you trying to compile directly with VS2015?

I ran into the CMake issue. VS2015 doesn't include the C++ compilers by default. You have to do a custom instillation and tell it you want the C++ stuff. The express installer only includes C# and VB.

Edit: Fixed spelling of "due" to "do". I'm not even sure how that happened.

Fun fact: C±+ isn't included by default because it was the only team ready for a more modular install.
