* [DirectX SDK (June 2010)](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=6812). You will also need `ddraw.lib` from DXSDK February 2010 and `dinput.lib` from DXSDK August 2007. Both files can be found in the [DirectX SDK Collection repo](https://github.com/NovaRain/DXSDK_Collection).

2. Open the solution file and build with the **ReleaseXP** configuration (this is the one used for sfall releases).
3. If everything is set up correctly, you should have a new sfall `ddraw.dll` in your Fallout 2 directory.
### Minimalist Setup:
If you don't need a full-fledged IDE, you can use Visual Studio Build Tools instead. Taking [Visual Studio 2017 Build Tools](https://aka.ms/vs/15/release/vs_buildtools.exe) for example:
1. Install using the command line:
```
vs_BuildTools.exe --add Microsoft.VisualStudio.Workload.VCTools --add Microsoft.VisualStudio.Workload.MSBuildTools --add Microsoft.VisualStudio.Component.VC.140 --add Microsoft.VisualStudio.Component.WinXP --add Microsoft.VisualStudio.ComponentGroup.NativeDesktop.WinXP --passive
```
2. Set up a `postbuild.cmd` using the template from the repo.
3. Use MSBuild in **x86 Native Tools Command Prompt** to build sfall:
```
MSBuild.exe ddraw.sln /t:Clean;Build /p:Configuration=ReleaseXP /p:Platform=Win32
```
