Anybody installed Visual D recently?

As per the install instructions, I downloaded the  Visual Studio isolated Shell 2013 and its integrated package. Everything went smoothly.  I then downloaded Visual D and installed it with no problems. However, when I try to run the vdserver.exe application, nothing happens?

Am I missing something obvious?

Why are you running vdserver.exe?

Since Visual D is a VS extension, wouldn't the expected way to use it is to start Visual Studio [Shell], and create a D project?

Right. Then I guess I should be asking how does one start the Visual Studio Shell (isolated or otherwise)?

I've downloaded the "isolated shell and the integrated package" installer and successfully installed them both. But after that I have no clue as to how to proceed. I only ran vdserver.exe because it is the only executable that I can find.

why you guys have problems with it? it is so simple, install isolated shell first, then install ingegrated shell, install visuald and now you have your visuald environment ready to use.

iirc vs 2013 requires windows 8 or 8.1, try vs 2010 instead
