title: Setting up SFML.net 2.1?
body: <p>How do you go about "properly" setting up SFML for VS 2013? While a few places have given me a bit of information how to do it, nothing quite seems to work except one thing: SFML MS2012 Extension. However, I'd like to know how to do this from scratch for VS 2013 without the need of the extension.</p>
  
  <p>Here is the current process I am using without the extension:</p>
  
  <p>1) Open new project in VS 2013.</p>
  
  <p>2) Add References to SFML libs(dlls): sfml-audio-2, afml-graphics-2 and sfml-windows-2.</p>
  
  <p>3) Add extended libs via add-existing files: csfml-audio-2, csfml-graphics-2, csfml- windows-2, libsndfile-1 and openal32.</p>
  
  <p>4) Create application.</p>
  
  <p>Between the extension and doing everything myself, the noticeable difference is the GUID in the assembly information, yet if I attempt the previous steps and insert the GUID from the extension project into the new project, my attempt still fails to work even though the projects end up looking exactly the same. On top of which, where does the GUID come from and how do I go about getting it?</p>
  
  <p>Secondary Question: Does XNA have all of the audio/graphic/window handling as SFML does? If so would it be better to switch to XNA than use SFML.Net?</p>
