Hi,

I can not leave this thread like this ;=((

I have NOT followed what your PARTICULAR problem is, 
but decided to do a 'quick' 2.9 build from source, using 
existing binaries, and found NO PROBLEMS... total build 
time approximately 3-4 hours...

I AGREE the directory setup SUCKS big time, and the wiki 
does not yet give ALL the answers... and this, at the moment 
seem exacerbated by some Win32 parts of jenkins 
(simpits) seem DOWN...

But in essence, following the wiki I built SG/FG in 
just some hours... was broken by a birthday lunch for 
my wife! ;=))

To try to make your life very SIMPLE I have uploaded a 
complete single build zip as -

 http://geoffair.org/tmp/fgfs-build-01.zip 

Be aware it is 48 MB... but contains EVERYTHING 
needed...

It only requires you do the simgear, flightgear and fgdata 
clones, and RUN the build ONLY in the MSVC10 command prompt...
All Programs -> Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 ->
Visual Studio Tools -> Visual Studio Command Prompt (2010)

If you unzip this into some folder, preferably without spaces,
it sets up a LOT of things, and then when in that folder 
in a MSVC10 prompt do :-

It contains a README.msvc100.txt, but in essence it is -

updsg.bat     # clone the SG source
cd build-sg
build-sg.bat  # build/install the SG libraries
cd ..
updfg.bat     # clone the flightgear source
cd build-fg
build-fg.bat  # build/install FG
cd ..
run-fg.bat    # and FLY FREE ;=))

OR, if you feel LUCKY, just run build-all.bat... 

All assumes you have git setup to run from a command 
prompt...

But I did NOT put much error checking in that bat... in 
my quite fast machine, I unzipped it into a new temp2 folder, 
and ran build-all... this took just <1 hour, and I was 
FLYING ;=)) with the world's BEST flight simulator...

You have to watch it, and add the enter key twice...

If you use this, and you have an error, send the relevant 
bldlog-1.txt file for inspection... AFTER you have checked 
it, and corrected any obvious problems ;=))

Of course, BEFORE the LAST step you need to DOWNLOAD fgdata 
to somewhere -
 https://gitorious.org/fg/fgdata 
It is BIG and HEAVY - 58 thousand files, 12 GB - takes 
HOURS even on my relative FAST internet connection...

And adjust run-fg.bat to that folder. In my case that is
C:\FG\fgdata
But the run-fg.bat can be adjusted to anywhere...

AND it further ASSUMES OpenAL (sound library) has been 
install system wide... 

Download and install say "Setup FlightGear 2.8.0-RC4.exe", 
 http://www.flightgear.org/download/ 
down near the bottom  [Mirror 1] [Mirror 2] [Mirror 3]
and during the install check install OpenAL if you have 
NOT done this before...

You can also do this from the OpenAL site, downloading, 
and install their SDK, and alut... leave you to work out 
the details...

Now, you might have chosen to GIVE UP ;=(( That is for 
sure your choice... the easy way out ;=)) 

Building SG/FG from source can certainly be quite 
FRUSTRATING in Windows ;=((

But this shows SG/FG can be easily built using MSVC10...
albeit, with some messing with the binary downloads, and 
ensuring OpenAL is installed...

Hope you will NOT 'give up', and take another little 
look...

Enjoy ;=))

Regards,
Geoff.
