The short story:
Microsoft has been kind enough to include everything that you need in one easy installation executable which you can find here:
Simply click ‘Download’ on the ‘vm_web.exe’ file. Once it has downloaded run the application and follow the prompts.
Microsft Visual Studio 2010
I would suggest using the free Visual Studio 2010 Express Edition as it has all the functionality you need.
Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0
Microsoft XNA Game Studio 4.0
In addition to these any requirements mentioned above you will also want to make sure that you have a computer running Windows with a graphics card that supports, at a minimum, Shader Model 1.1 and DirectX 9.0c. However, it is recommended that you have a card that supports DirectX 10 and Shader Model 2.0.
I have recently found the site in a bit of a state… We got hacked and the site was trashed….
However, I am trying to get things back in order and restoring the previous content as well as launching the a few new articles which should of been published but sadly did not.
I will also take this opportunity to update the look and feel of the site so any feedback is more than welcome!
Please stick around and enjoy the upcoming posts.
