Visual Studio 2015 Community Download

Post by Circumnavigate » October 27th, 2019, 2:58 am

Hey guys I'm trying to download the 2015 Visual Studio from the link given in the wiki, here's what happens when I try to do that.

"Sorry, we couldn't find any downloads for you.
To continue, please join Visual Studio Dev Essentials or purchase a Visual Studio Subscription."

Does that mean that I won't be able to get the 2015 version, does anyone know if there is somewhere else for me to grab it from?

If not would 2017 or 2019 be recommended?

Thanks for the help folks. :geek:

Either would work fine. I prefer 2017 because it's more polished, but it will be obsolete sooner or later just as 2015 was, so it might be more beneficial for you to just jump to 2019.

You can go ahead and get 2017 or 2019. I have a video for the installation process of 2017, and 2019 I quite similar I hear. make sure you watch the vid on 2017 installation

Hi, my VS2015 code compiled right out of the box in VS2019 that I downloaded yesterday. I'd say go for it, make sure you install the C++ and the DirectX components (I did not install anything else) and you should be ready for battle.
