Hi All,

I am trying to build Torcs 1.3.8 test code drop. I'm using MS VS 2022
Community and running Windows 11. I've traced the problem down to building
the 'robottools' package. I'm unable to build robottools.dll. The error I'm
getting from robottools.log is:

******
  rttelem.cpp
  rttrack.cpp

*****

The error code is referencing *ul_vs2008_32.lib* so it seems that VS 2022
needs to have some VS 2008 software installed to build. VS 2008 is out of
support now.

Has anyone encountered this error before? If so, then how did you resolve
it?

Kind Regards,
Stuart

P.S.: I'm new to this codebase and MS Visual Studio so please be patient
with me.  Thanks in advance.
