Visual Studio 2017 Support

The beta branch of Leadwerks Game Engine: Professional Edition is upgraded to utilize Visual Studio 2017.  You can download the release candidate for free here:

Your existing projects should work with VS 2017 with no changes, but you might want to hold off while we test if you are in the middle of a project.  New projects you create should open with VS 2017 by default.

From Microsoft:

Enhancements to code navigation, IntelliSense, refactoring, code fixes, and debugging, saves you time and effort on everyday tasks regardless of language or platform. There is a renewed focus to enhance the efficiency of the fundamental tasks you encounter on daily basis. From a brand-new lightweight and modular installation tailored to your need, a faster IDE from startup to shut down, to a new way of view, edit, and debug any code without projects and solutions. Visual Studio 2017 helps you stay focused on the big picture.
