    this does not work, not anymore at least. it's frustrating cause these are the best results i saw with photography.
    when you press ctrl + f5 to run the code the visual studio says: "Build tools for Visual Studio 2013 (v120) not found. To build using the Visual Studio 2022 (v143) build tools, click the Project menu or right-click the solution and select "Redirect Solution". Install Visual Studio 2013 (v120) to build using the Visual Studio 2013 (v120) build tools." but doing what the instruction says does not work too, i lost my day trying to fix this

    • @AlexCarter881
      @AlexCarter881  Před 3 měsíci

      I'm really sorry to hear that it isn't working for you. To me, there has to be a solution as we can always revert to a specific version of software in order to run a program. The algorithm hasn't changed.
