After much fiddling around, I finally got MilkDrop to compile in newer versions of Visual Studio. However, Winamp would crash when attempting to start the plugin. After attaching a debugger I saw the exception was in msvcr110.dll. Rather than reverse engineer that whole deal, I just took the advice on http://www.geisswerks.com/milkdrop/ and compiled it in Visual Studio Express 2008. I can confirm the resulting dll works with Winamp.

I did have to change a couple of things after opening the solution in Visual Studio Express 2008.

Right click the project -> Properties -> Configuration Properties -> C/C++ -> General -> Additional Include Directories. I changed this to be
```
code:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft DirectX SDK (June 2010)\Include

../Wasabi
```
After a build attempt, it will complain about afxres.h in plugin.rc. Change this to be WinResrc.h.
It then complained about IDC_STATIC. So I added
```
code:
#ifndef IDC_STATIC

#define IDC_STATIC				-1

#endif
```
in there, right below // Dialog.

Hope this helps!
