I have just purchased http://www.packtpub.com/directx-11-1-game-programming/book

When i try to compile any of the .sln files that come with the book i get this error (picture below)

I am using Visual studio 2012 Ultimate and i have opened an .sln file with notepad to check if there 2012 project files,here is the output.

Microsoft Visual Studio Solution File, Format Version 12.00
# Visual Studio 2012
Project("{8BC9CEB8-8B4A-11D0-8D11-00A0C91BC942}") = "Cpp_CX", "Cpp_CX\Cpp_CX.vcxproj", "{8F845988-ACC0-4270-B93D-5FF33A39D9BF}"
EndProject

I have attached the first sample project to this post for anyone else that can figure this out.

I am not sure what todo to fix this and get the sources working,thanks for reading.

I've tried to degrade the project for you, as the project definitions pretty much stay the same, though some few things had to be removed/changed.

PS. To download it all, click file, then download

Hope it works!
