Question

I\'m trying make a Visual Studio solution with CMake to compile the latest version of aseprite and CMake keeps giving me the:

No CMAKE_C_COMPILER could be fo         


        

Answer 1

I had the same errors with CMake. In my case, I have used the wrong Visual Studio version in the initial CMake dialog where we have to select the Visual Studio compiler.

Then I changed it to "Visual Studio 11 2012" and things worked. (I have Visual Studio Ultimate 2012 version on my PC). In general, try to input an older version of Visual Studio version in the initial CMake configuration dialog.
