The version of OF that is being downloaded is http://ci.openframeworks.cc/libs/openFrameworksLibs_master_vs2017_64_1.zip

#3

go to properties and change the platform toolset to the one is installed

#4

Which ā€œpropertiesā€? I do not have visual studio, Iā€™m running the windows build on appveyor

#5

It seems that the current OF for Visual Studio is broken. Iā€™m also facing several issues.

The download_libs is trying to download a zip file that does not exist.

and if fixing that:
ssleay lib is not found:
