Installation requires Visual C# 2005 Express??

by Killer Miller · in Torque X 2D · 12/28/2007 (11:20 am) · 3 replies

I am getting the following error when trying to install Tourque X. "Torque X requires visual C# 2005 Express Edition and XNA Game Studio Express. Install the required applications, and then relaunch setup."

I have Visual Studio 2005 Professional installed as well as Microsoft XNA Game Studio 2.0.

Do I really need to have the express verions of these installed when I have the professional versions?

Technically, yes. The current version of Torque X only works with XNA Game Studio Express 1.0 Refresh, which in turn only was compatible with Visual Studio Express. After Torque X is rebuilt for XNA 2.0, you should be able to continue with Visual Studio 2005/2008 Professional. The (kinda) good news is that Express and Professional run perfectly fine side-by-side. I have been routinely switching between the two for the last year or so.
