I have linked both my "Include Directiories" and "Library Directiories" to my Vspkg folder and i tried to recompile but error won't disappear, i felt like the files didn't parse also.

you shouldnt link anything, vcpkg does that for you, just install needed libs thru cmd

before i manually link them, which i didn't know it did that by it's own, i got this error. so i tried manually linking and it didn't work, what could be the solution to this? am sorry for disturbance. i already installed boost for needed libs? should boost work?

Did you follow this tutorial? otland/forgottenserver (https://github.com/otland/forgottenserver/wiki/Compiling-on-Windows-%28vcpkg%29)

this command didn't work

vcpkg install boost-iostreams:x64-windows boost-asio:x64-windows boost-system:x64-windows boost-filesystem:x64-windows boost-variant:x64-windows boost-lockfree:x64-windows luajit:x64-windows libmariadb:x64-windows pugixml:x64-windows mpir:x64-windows cryptopp:x64-windows

so i changed it to

./vcpkg install boost-iostreams:x64-windows boost-asio:x64-windows boost-system:x64-windows boost-filesystem:x64-windows boost-variant:x64-windows boost-lockfree:x64-windows luajit:x64-windows libmariadb:x64-windows pugixml:x64-windows mpir:x64-windows cryptopp:x64-windows

and it said bash: ./vcpkg: is a directory
and then i followed up the rest with in build configuration Release & x64 and rebuillding.

so you didnt install any libs if that command didnt work.
You need to cd into vcpkg directory before using that command

In addition to what ^ they said, that you need to cd vcpkg first, there should be no need to specify x64-windows on every single package.

You can do this, which I covered in another thread. (Where I was exposed to what Windows devs deal with after years of only dealing with sane tool chains)

set VCPKG_DEFAULT_TRIPLET=x64-windows
set VCPKG_TARGET_ARCHITECTURE=x64
set VCPKG_LIBRARY_LINKAGE=dynamic
set VCPKG_CRT_LINKAGE=static

Then it's simply this:

vcpkg install boost-iostreams boost-asio boost-system boost-filesystem boost-variant boost-lockfree luajit libmariadb pugixml mpir cryptopp

Everything is Running Smoothly Thanks to Nekiro currently it's installing the libs. My mistake is that i was using Gitbash to run my commands on, and it's shit, i should use the normal Cmd while runing the commands.
