I don't know why you wouldn't want to use the latest stuff from MS. They are the ones that require it for the compiler output, so that isn't your fault. It would be like using a older version of physfs/openAL/SDL, instead of the most updated (and bugfixed) codebase/libs/dlls. If someone don't want to update, then that is their problem, not yours, or the other WZ developers. With all the other project/developers using the newest compilers from MS, this should be a moot point. "The Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package (x86) installs runtime components of Visual C++ Libraries required to run applications developed with Visual C++ on a computer that does not have Visual C++ 2005 installed." 2.6MB won't kill anyone. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=32BC1BEE- A3F9-4C13-9C99-220B62A191EE&displaylang=en Concerned about your privacy?
