stuck in Step by Step installation

Hi, I'm stuck in the installation guide http://desmume.org/documents/14/ at step 6) "Run Visual Studio"
Well. Erm. I'm a complete and total Noob at such things, I don't know what Visual Studio is. I thought it would be this Tortois CVS Thingy, but I can't find anything like Virtual Studio.

Hope you can help me soon. ^^

And sorry for the crappy english...I'm from Germany. Sorry for that.

Visual Studio is the Microsoft product for C/C++ devel, you can get the express (free) version here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/

Re: stuck in Step by Step installation

There, there...well now I'm stuck within the compiling. There are a lot of errors but none are similiar to the instruckted ones.
Well I don't know where to start and if I'm honest I'm kinda tired after a couple of hours trying to figure it out just to play "cooking mama" and Pokemond Diamond. ^^

I think I'll wait until there's a release of a "plug&play" version. For PC-Dummies like me this is a nono. ^^

Re: stuck in Step by Step installation

Well theres no need for you to compile your own builds, if your purpose it to play only.
Compiling is for Coders, who wish to take a look at the code, or modify it.

Just to go to the download section, and get the win32 binary.

Re: stuck in Step by Step installation

Ok, I'll try that.
Of course I downloaded the first download wich is the source...but binary sounded complicated, too. As I said, I'm a total noob.
Hope I can figure it out now. Thanks in advance.

Re: stuck in Step by Step installation

So let me explain it better to you.
Source code is for developers/coders.
Binary is the desmume.exe, ready to use.
Just double click it, and run the game you want.
