You can install the MS Build Tools 2015. DMD will work with
that. You have two options to do so -- download the installer
at the link below or run the VS 2017 installer and select it in
the "Individual Components" tab. I'm on my MacBook now and
can't recall exactly, but it may be listed as some thing like
"Platform toolset v140". With both options, you have the added
benefit that you can choose to use either the 2015 or 2017
build tools when compiling C & C++ projects in VS 2017 (and, I
assume, Visual D).

I should add that Mike's suggestion to edit sc.ini should do the
trick, but I find it convenient to have both toolsets installed.
