I downloaded the Coco2d-x game from the link on the downloads page of www.coco2d-x.org. now, how to get it working?

Question

From this link Cocos2D_Game I downloaded the game and extracted the files.

Visual c++ express 2010 and marmalaid 5.2.1(from marmalaid.com) is installed (of-course on windows 7).

Now, which file is to be used to run the game. I tried almost all expected files. and when I press run, it returns an error "unable to start program... blah blah blah"

is there any special file to run the project ?

I didn't found *.mkb file in that project.

Please help me setting up this Cocos2d-x setup on my system for the first time.

And yeah, i just recalled on more thing. I downloaded Cocos2d-x on my system. Extracted it. and kept it in my "d: drive".

Where shall the extract of Cocos2d-x be kept? Do I need specific path for that?

Answer 1

I can't shake the feeling that you haven't read any of the cocos2d-x documentation, in particular the Visual Studio user's guide. That's where you should start.
