Cannot build on Windows 10, VS 2017

Hi,

Has anyone tried to build this project in Windows? I got a bunch of errors as follows:

Do you know how to fix them?

Thank you

I just tackled this problem today, open the file where the errors are present (def.h) and include stdint.h

The next error you'll get is MSVC not being able to open stdc++fs.lib, I just removed it from the dependencies.

The next (and hopefully last) hurdle is trying to get ahold of the real smpl_female and smpl_male files, since they're supposed to be +100MBs, but due to Github's limitations, all you'll have is both files being a little more than 100 Bytes. I'm still trying to figure out how to get them.

Edit: Apparently, Git has bandwidth restrictions, you must pay in order to get the actual files, downloading a zip file only contains a pointer to the data files, but not the actual files themselves. Glad I don't use Github anymore.

@neonguyen1287 Sorry for the late reply. I haven't tested this project on Windows yet. Apparently, there will be some problems if you build it directly in VS.

And thanks for your suggestion @tmsc5. You follow that one to see if it works.

I think there is a bug with git-lfs. I will provide the script to generate json files from official pkl files soon. Try to download the repo instead of cloning it to fetch all the data.

Thanks for your feedback!

Close issue since I have uploaded the converter script
