[B2-devel] Retargeting Basilisk II to newer windows and X64

SourceForge Headquarters 1320 Columbia Street Suite 310 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 422-6466

Not very familiar with the Windows development environment.  I'm an 
embedded systems programmer.

It was trying to find the 2015 development tools environment, but I was 
able to retarget that.

I really don't want to have to go hunt down my old CD of VC++, so I'm 
using the 2017 community version.

I'm having a problem that the three subprojects won't let me retarget to 
the new Windows library.

It just resets to 8.1:
